Forum Post: Constitutional Convention to reform electoral process

The states have to call for a Constitutional Convention to reform our electoral system. Eliminate the Electoral College, "Get The Money Out" of politics, eliminate gerrymandering, etc., etc. This may sound quite impossible, but its really the only orderly way to save the country.

An article v convention is absolutely necessary because Congress will never propose amendments or pass laws that truly reform our corrupt, dysfunctional and dishonest government. Learn more at foavc.org. Over 700 state applications have already asked for a convention, but Congress has ignored them and has disobeyed the Constitution.

Obama and Congress have ignored Article V. If our own government can ignore that, we can all go fuck ourselves right now. All the people sitting out in Liberty Plaza might as well just start fucking each other in the street because that's about all the pleasure we can really expect to get from any of this until we grow the fuck up and organize ourselves properly.

The scared liberals don't have the salt to try something that makes the only real sense.

Larry Sabato has a good book on that subject.
