We need Constitutional reform and that is never going to happen because red states are not going to vote to give away their power.

What reform do you suggest?

Its pretty unfair, not to mention, defeatist, to predict what your opponent accepts, without laying out the proposal.

  • Remove the Electoral College.
  • Allow ranked-choice voting.
  • Make Gerrymandering Unconstitutional.

this plus DC and PR statehood, add about 7 SC justices, aggressive term limits, REAL campaign finance reform, vastly expand the checks and balances and wipe out basically every SC ruling and EO of the last 10 years that sought to give the president and his cronies virtual immunity.
