Hi, Lynn.

Well, the wheels of justice have a good reason to turn slowly, as this limits the possibility of injustice, at least in individual cases. But if the DEMs could just get out a big vote and win a couple of landslide elections, then find a bit of courage somewhere, they could pretty much have their way with the Constitution. Not easy, but hardly unthinkable.

Also, in part because we have the technological tools to do things rapidly, and in part because a couple of key changes regarding voting and campaign finance would greatly change our currently stagnant political system, I think there could be major improvements to the Constitution within.... our lifetimes?

I don't know about you, but I'm hoping for another 20 years or so before I check out. Who knows? Maybe our scienze wizards will develop a vaccine against aging. Of course, that might be a real can of worms. In the end, it looks like we may all get roasted.

Can of worms for sure!
