Which he admits. The point is to get this topic on the collective radar screen, and this is a good way to do it, IMHO.
True, but I don’t think most people care. I only discovered the significance of the impact of the 17th amendment a couple of years ago and I’m a political wonk. Most people will ignore this.
Sorry, ever since I realized that Obama is not the problem - the electorate is - I saw the writing on the wall for the future of the US. It will have to affect a LOT of people personally in a STARKLY negative way before anything changes.
And by a LOT, I mean tens of millions. And by personally, I mean it happens to them, not somebody else. By starkly, I mean lose their home or a family member because of it, or death, starvation, etc. Words won’t work. They will only respond (react is more like it) to actual personal events. And it has to happen to a LOT of them.
