Entry: The U.S. Constitution is Not Democratic -- and Why That's a Good Thing Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/the_us_constitution_is_not_democratic_and_why_thats_a_good_thing#17887 Post contents: For our constitutional system to survive, I would suggest that at a minimum we should raise the voting age to at least 25, if not 30 (too much extended adolescence today), and repeal Amendment making U.S Senators elected by the people directly. Another reform would be to disallow any LAWYER from holding elective office, it being an inherent conflict of interest. Sent at: 2008 07 08
