>>>Or are you saying all constitutional issues, like impeachment and school prayer, should be voted on democratically?

Finally an interesting point from you.

Would you support a national referendum process like that in the states?

Would you support constitutional amendments that say, 75% of the people supported, provided that the process was drawn out enough to overcome the passions of the moment?

Would you support an amendment to the constitution that made it a felony for any politician during and election campaign or while sitting in office to blatantly lie about affairs of state, with a court trial? With say, an automatic 2 year jail term. And the offense counting toward their three strikes?

How about getting rid of the toothless ethics committees and putting review of congressional bribery cases into the regular court system?

In other words, you like to complain about government, but what reform methods would you support?

Cheers,
Chaz
