The world waits to hear your facts.
I already told you the facts.
There is no way in hell that Americans will give up their vote for senators. Instead of acknowledging that fact you stamp your feet and and choose to pursue that dead end rather than looking for an alternative that actually has a chance of success.
We just saw 45 state legislatures vote to approve common core and you want to blindly trust them to pick senators for us? I simply say that we should do away with the popular vote for senators and elect them according to how many congressional districts they win. We can still give the state legislatures the power to remove senators.
