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

76. the dead should not rule the quick

The American Constitution is an outdated, malfunctioning piece of junk — and it's only getting worse.

I think this a valid observation. It is outdated. Thomas Jefferson thought the constitution should be rewritten every 19 and a half years:

Thomas Jefferson believed that a country’s constitution should be rewritten every 19 years. Instead, the U.S. Constitution, which Jefferson did not help to write (he was in Paris serving as U.S. minister to France when the Constitutional Convention was held in Philadelphia), has prevailed since 1789.
“Jefferson thought the dead should not rule the living, thus constitutions should expire frequently, but the fact is that the U.S. Constitution quickly became enshrined by the public and is the oldest constitution in the world,” said Zachary Elkins, a professor of political science at Illinois.

This was not a one time flippant opinion from jefferson. He restated it at intervals during his life; Iirc at least 20 years apart did he reiterate this, as well as surely in between.

So many things have changed since 1789 & the bill of rights 1791. If the election process was in effect as it was then, in 2016 Hillary Clinton would've been elected vice president to a president (cough) trump, since she recieved the second most electoral votes.
I think Jefferson's reasons for wanting a 20 year rewrite were somewhat financially based, but it is what it is.
