That's as simple-minded of a solution as saying "throw the bums out" or "start a third party" is the fix in Washington. Present day politics is a lot more complex than that and if you don't play by the rules at the time, you will get burned by those who do. I'm sorry it's this way, but singing "LA LA LA" and sticking your head in the sand won't change it.
The debate truly is as simple as mentioning “enumerated powers”
“That’s as simple-minded” as talking like a founder of the Constitution.
And I hadn’t supported a ticket splitter since Al Gore invented the internet.
“Present day politics is a lot more complex” — corrupt.
“I’m sorry it’s this way, but singing “LA LA LA” and sticking your head in the sand won’t change it.”
It’s DC that’s sticking it’s collective head in the sand. They tried to get rid of gun rights, and “simple-minded” people simply quoted the constitution. It took time, but at the mounting resistance.
And so you call up DC — how much attention will the staffer give you to complain about this clause or that clause? You’ll just be a chicken scratch on a note pad.
You write a long-winded email — same thing. A simple chicken scratch.
Some lady calls up about wearing her dead sister’s teeth and has the same impact.
Might as well keep it basic and simple. Same difference.
