Articles that need to be changed in the US Constitution:

16th: Eliminate the income tax permanently.
17th: State legislatures appointing Senators.

Some items that should be clarified or modified:

Precisely define who is a natural born citizen of the United States.

Term limits for all Representatives and Senators.
Five terms for a Congressman & two terms for Senators.
Sunset provisions on all tax laws. (They must voted on every two years in a new bill submitted to Congress.)

Term limits for all federal judges including the Supreme Court Justices. I suggest 12 years. Mandatory retirement at age 75.

Mandatory retirement of Senators and Representatives at 75.

All regulations proposed by any government agency must be passed in a single, unique bill presented in Congress.
I could go on -- there's too much that needs to be done.

You and Levin are bros from different moms.

STRUCTURAL changes, as almost all of your amendments are, are exactly what’s needed.
