America's Constitution is terrible. Let's throw it out and start over.

8. I wouldn't call it a piece of junk, I think that historically it's a pretty remarkable document, but

I agree that it is obsolete in many ways. Political Science has made a lot of advances since then.

Personally, I think that the winner take all voting system, along with the 2nd Amendment and the undemocratic aspects of the constitution (the structure of the senate, the electoral college) helps to both enable and encourage right wing authoritarians. Every time they pull something over on the majority it gives them a power rush, and sends them back to go even further.

Unfortunately, far-right conservatives have been angling to rewrite the constitution for decades now, and any convention for that purpose might well be taken over by them.
