We need a new constitution: Here’s how we save American democracy from charlatans, loudmouths and the 1 percent. Apparently they plan to do this by repealing those protections granted by the 1st and 13th Amendments and replacing them with public funded fail and the sort of regulation that instead of keeping a check on business keeps the checks going to them, well them most favored ones anyway.

We don't need a new Constitution. We simply need to follow the one we have. Term limits, for instance, was built in until Congress changed it after the Civil war. Executive orders were not designed to trump Congress, nor were laws to be made by the jurists of the Supreme court. And the dirt digging and mud slinging revmoves anyone with any brains or class from running. EVERBODY has things they have said or done that they don't want broadcast every where.

Don't be surprised if they repeal the 2nd and 4th while they're at it. Then they will have everything they need in place to turn us into 1955 USSR.
Dammit, you made me link to Salon. Now I have to disinfect my browser! So what was all that crap from Agony Annie? Same predictable old shi'ite?
And the only reason the Constitution isn't working as well as it should is because you flaming communist liberals refuse to follow the god damn laws.
Once again I see their adding a new level to stupid.
America is not a dumbocracy, those poor, misguided, ignorant, founding fathers thought it was a Republic.
Should have known it was from Salon...what a bunch of flaming idiots..but hey, they don't even understand we re a constitutional republic, not a democracy...that point get overlooked in their drooling effort to make us a socialist country like those failures in Europe. Our ancestors LEFT Europe for a reason...and formed this country based on that reason..Now we have a bunch of uber elite morons who THINK they know what we need.
What we need is to follow the constitution, it worked fine so far, well until we got this administration...
The US Constitution has served this nation very well. It's only the Alinsky followers who wish to change it to suit themselves.
I've got a better suggestion. Let em all move the hell out of this country and setup their own, let's say Venezuela or some other socialist pos country.
How about Antarctica? Plenty of room there, and 97% of useful idiots think it's going to be like Miami Beach by the end of the decade.
