I know it is a work in progress, so I may have to speed up the process to get it done by elections later this year(the blogo world will have more important things to talk about). <br />What I really would like is input from officials in/running for. Of coarse this would be spot lighting their opinion and documenting their word. And as you know from the Bill Long story many will flee. So I will stay with those whom I can rely, you guys -- the people. Well a few of ya anyway.LandShark 5150https://www.blogger.com/profile/11625229822235020824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1952866519335588313.post-4637123906748141512010-02-09T12:36:38.869-06:002010-02-09T12:36:38.869-06:00i would also add that it is here that we can settl...i would also add that it is here that we can settle the argument of whether our representatives are to abide by the will of the people when casting their vote or if they are to abide by their conscience. <br /><br />and the answer is abide by their conscience. if that wasn't the answer then we'd have no system of check and balance.The Griperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00937560474548021334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1952866519335588313.post-59577420634290677172010-02-09T11:37:31.434-06:002010-02-09T11:37:31.434-06:00BB,

Knew they were going to be here so that is why I threw in the repeal of the 17th on the last post.<br />Thanks guys, I really appreciate your input and look forwrd to more. sharkyLandShark 5150https://www.blogger.com/profile/11625229822235020824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1952866519335588313.post-75212998896272623722010-02-08T23:44:43.514-06:002010-02-08T23:44:43.514-06:00I agree with the Griper.The Senate was to give eac...I agree with the Griper.The Senate was to give each state an equal voice and presence in congress, and thus the selection of Senators as originally set forth in the Constitution was proper and sufficient.<br /><br />The 17th amendment is, in my view unnecessary and unwarranted.<br /><br />The "peoples" house is The House of Representatives and having sufficient powers to govern the 17th amendment need not have even been considered.Les Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01120280762698472496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1952866519335588313.post-9855816995852535232010-02-08T12:35:16.254-06:002010-02-08T12:35:16.254-06:00this clause is pretty straight forward and clearly...this clause is pretty straight forward and clearly stated. and it doesn't leave much open for interpretation.<br /><br />one change i would make in regards to this is to repeal the 17th amendment. with that amendment we now have two houses representing the individuals of society and none representing the states (the people as a singular collective body)as was the intention of its purpose,thus no check and balance in Congress. <br /><br />it is here also that we can understand that the word <b>people</b> was taken out of context of its original meaning. and that, to me, was a very dangerous precedent.The Griperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00937560474548021334noreply@blogger.com
