Or make any Constitutional amendments which are based on ideology. There is no political will for it. Those on the left who want changes in the electoral college and supreme court are never going to get anywhere by changing the Constitution and those on the right who want changes in the Constitution will never get anywhere. Country is too divided to allow it.
