The 10th is too slow and dependent on friendly federal courts. Better to undo the damage the 17th Amendment has done by repealing it. The states were meant to have a direct say in the management of the federal government via the Senate.

You make an excellent point. Election of Senators should be restored. They should be voted into office by state representatives. State governors should take back their tenth amendment power as well.
