I do understand that. My concern is that the pols will simply ignore the changes. In much the same way that the pols do now. Regardless I fully support making the changes and, as a patriot, making the gubmint follow the amendments if necessary. Hopefully it won’t be necessary.

I agree, we may want to look into pushing more structural changes to Washington to make it more accountable to the powers protected by the Constitution.
Hence the repeal of the 17th amendment, preferably with a replacement of a more ambassadorial type system.(recall & replacement of senators by State legislators, and Governors)
In the interest of political expediency(in an institutionally ignorant america) we might just target that aspect alone. Making senators recall-able by their Respective State legislators, and leave elections up to the state.
