I believe I already spoke my piece about the 17th amendment - we need it back. Imo THAT was the cause of many of our issues - state reps at fed level no longer being answerable to the state they supposedly represent. No consequences for not voting as the state they supposedly represent would like. They used to be easily replaced by governor decision or legislative vote. We need that back.
Imo we need quite a few changes in the amendments. Need some new ones added, old ones added back, and some newer ones deleted, or fixed. EDIT:adding on - states need to regain their sovereignty and get the balance of power between states and the fed govt back in proper alignment. It's backwards.
Do you see how the 17th amendment destroyed America?
Or do you not care about that?

Good answer, it was pushed through because the senate kept blocking probation.....
