"We the people" have failed to demmand that our elected officials follow the law. We have failed at this job for well over 100 years now.

Congressmen try and impeach *themselves* there is no mechanism for the citizens to hold them accountable for abuse of office. Again, this is not a mistake. The Federal Government was specifically designed to be both extremely insulated from the public and capable of defying their wishes.

Congressmen try and impeach *themselves*...
We have the opportunity every 6 years to rid ourselves of Senators and every 2 years of our Representatives - the ones who control the money. One thing a politician pays attention to is reelection. The Congress can limit the Supreme Courts jurisdiction. The Congress can also remove from power any appointed official through a super majority.
I finally do see where our differences come from. It appears that you disagree with our FORM of government not just its application. To me that seems like an easy way to not assume responsibility for what it has become and just sit back and gripe.

While there are things that I would have liked to be different, I like our FORM of government and believe that it has the capability of being the greatest on earth. It is up to us. We can replace those who abuse power. We can completely change everyone in power every 6 years if we choose to.
I disagree with what we have allowed it to become but that is because we do not hold our elected representatives accountable for their actions.
Just as a curiosity what would be your solution to our present dilemma?
