There are plenty of reasons to change the US Constitution, but I’m wondering specifically about the current dilemma the US seems to be in re the executive seeming to have no desire to listen to the courts. The US Marshals, the law enforcement arm of the judiciary, is ultimately under the control of the executive. What changes would need to be made to the Constitution to ensure that there 1) can’t be a conflict between separate law enforcement agencies in two branches, and 2) the executive branch can never, even theoretically, have the ability to seize control of the government from the other branches?

    Every person age 18 or above can now cast “approve” or “disapprove” votes. If disapproval is 50% or more, the president is executed. If a person dies without casting “approve” it is presumed as “disapprove” (this prevents the president from ordering the death of people).

    Democrat, Republican, Whatever, somebody need to have a sustained positive approval, or they die. Politics is solved.

          I saw a post yesterday that your comment reminds me of. Someone asked if Pinky & The Brain were still trying to take over the world because they were ready to hear Brain’s plan, and someone else replied, ‘shit, at this point I’m ready to hear Pinky’s plan.’ 😛
