Dear Bob, Thanks for commenting. Sounds as though you are against democracy. I can relate to that, but I have no idea why you think I'm supporting mob rule or democracy in its pretend form we have here. Democracy does potentially put minorities at risk and that's a serious problem and another reason not to defend it unthinkingly. I know why the Senate and House are structured as they are, do you? It was mainly to defend the property interests of slave holders. A supreme court that was a true council of elders would be a great idea! Thanks for coming up with that. But Supreme Couirt justices are not chosen for being wise elders, but for their ability to serve capital
