I am all for repealing that curse of an amendment. This article, though, lost me when the author stated....
“The notion that somehow having the state legislatures choose Senators is more representative of the state’s interest than having the voters of the state choose the Senator is odd on its face”
I hate to tell the “professor” but our founding fathers gave the people a voice already...it’s called the House of Representatives. Why on earth would you give the people of a state TWO houses? The House was designed to give the people a voice and the Senate was designed to give the states a voice. We have utterly obliterated any resemblance of a republic that every existed in this country.
Bingo!!!
The “Show Me State” proves itself once again!!!
Excellent point, very well stated!!!
