"Since the 17th never passed, all we need is the SC to declare it void. Madison, in his wisdom, said the following “no state, without its consent, can be deprived of its sufferage in the Senate” since several states did not consent to the 17th they were deprived of their sufferage in the Senate. The fraudulent passage of the 17th destroyed the republic. You have to remember the “state” referred to is a real entity not the “mob” of the state. We currently elect Senators and Reps by mob vote."
This is good stuff. May we borrow some of your phrasing?
