Sheldon Whitehouse: 'There is a plan, and this is just part of it.'

18. The Founders really thought there would be a Constitutional Convention every few decades

They purposely gave us a mechanism to keep the Constitution fresh and current, and to fix problems with it that were unforeseen - like the rise of Corporations.

But they screwed up, and the only real method to keep the Constitution up to the times is the amendment process. And it is too easily bypassed if one party decides to fuck it all up.

The founders also thought that political parties would never get too powerful...

It's gonna fall to the generations on the ground now to fix it, or blow it all up and start again. And the RW conservatives have a leg up over everyone else because the Movement Conservatism HAS PLANNED FOR THIS IN DETAIL FOR OVER 60 years. They actually used long term planning...

We on the Center and Left got lazy, apathetic and fight among ourselves wayyyyyyyy too much. It's not the Centrists. It's not the Left. It is ALL of OUR fault. Until WE realize that, and plan, organize and sacrifice, we are going to lose almost all the time.

We can at least start the process this year with a strong GOTV campaign that is inclusive of EVERYONE. It is our last chance to fix things.
