26. Yes, agreed and the states were full of themselves
at the time. They had their own governments as colonies are did not want to give up power. I am from Delaware, one reason for the Senate. It was a little state and with other little states, fought to keep their power and knew that states with larger populations could outvote them. The Senate is anti-Democratic, with New York or California having as many Senators as Delaware or Wyoming. Then the filibuster! That tops it off. The Senate thus drags and is a huge ball and chain stopping changes from being made.
**** you (D)Ummie. No, strike that. **** you all, (D)Ummies.
There is a difference between wanting power for the sake of power and freebies like you imbeciles do, and wanting enough power simply to be respected and let be by a tyrannical king, as the framers did. You idiots piss and moan about "our democracy" and anti-democratic this and anti-democratic that, all the while living in a fantasy world where our system of government was supposed to be a democracy. Sorry, it never was.
If that was all, I'd just call you uneducated ignorant children, but it isn't. You hate America, you HATE freedom, you HATE rights, you hate the constitution, you hate...jiminy ****ing christmas, if I go over to DU and look, its almost impossible to find the things you don't hate when it comes to America and the things America is supposed to be and represent.
Look in the mirror (D)Ummie. Look really really close at that face staring back at you. That face, and many faces like it belonging to equally stunted morally bankrupt reality denialists, did most of the heavy lifting involved - your hatred of America and the hateful way that you refer to and treat the ideals of America - in the creation of someone we all know now as a houshold name: Donald trump. Keep on hating America, and see where it leads. You will like it even less than you like trump.

There are a whole lot of us who LOVE our country for what it is supposed to be, and hate the idea of the socialist or worse shit parade you and other foolish collectivists want to turn it into.
If you hate America so bad, why don't you just ****ing leave.
