curl-6 said: Oh I agree, but that's the thing though, idiots still get to vote. I don't think such people are necessarily beyond saving though; it is possible, albeit difficult, to de-radicalize folks. Plenty of people for example have been rehabilitated from being in cults and the like. And yeah, as an outsider myself the American election process does seem somewhat absurd to me too; the length of the process, weird shit like the Electoral College. System needs an overhaul but I expect that's very hard to achieve. |
I said as much, people can get out if they make that choice themselves.
Changing the constitution requires two-third majorities in both chambers of congress as far as I know. But under the current constitution, such majorities are practically impossible to achieve for either party alone, plus there's no bi-partisan interest in doing so.
Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV will outsell Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I was wrong.
