For the sole purpose of unity, we need constitutional reforms, starting with the electoral college

Trump Tweeted 8 Years Ago 'The Electoral College Is a Disaster for a Democracy'

For once, he's absolutely right, however, would a plurality system, (Whoever gets the most votes is elected, Senate, House, and President), put the Republicans at a disadvantage?

For example;

a. Gore vs. Bush;

Popular; Gore won by 540,000 votes

Electoral; Number of disputed votes that gave Bush the presidency; less than 1,000

b. Trump vs Biden

Popular; Biden won by 7 million votes

Electoral; Number of disputed votes that gave Biden the presidency; certainly less than 7 million

THUS, for the presidential candidate, a plurality system would eliminate numerous and highly divisive legal battles, RECOUNTS, and render a number of irregularities IRRELEVANT.

Other reforms;

Birthright citizenship

What else?

 

I am going to add election reform to the list I started compiling a couple of years ago:

1. We need a legitimate process to enforce the Constitution on government. That would mean among other things, taking away qualified and absolute immunity for government servants.

2. We need to repeal the Federal Reserve Act and enforce Article I Section 8 Paragraph 5 (To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures;).

3. We need to remove the seized power of the judiciary to "interpret" the Constitution. With that, we need a system that reviews all proposed legislation for constitutional compliance and return all non-compliant bills to the legislature for correction. This should be controlled similarly to a jury system (in the hands of The People). Judicial review would be limited to interpreting laws for constitutional compliance, not the Constitution itself. Judges should be also be elected and serve no more than 2 terms of no more than 6 years each.

4. We need to make corporate lobbying illegal. Only people lobbies would be legal.

5. We need to make corporate campaign contributions illegal (overturning SEC vs Citizens United and along with it protected corporate "rights"). Only contributions by ordinary people would be legal and limited to a maximum per person per candidate per office.

6. We need to repeal the 16th Amendment and end the income tax permanently. Along with that disband the IRS.

7. We need to enforce Article I Section 8 Paragraph 11 (To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water;) and remove all such decisions from the Executive.

8. All candidates for public office should be required to pass a rigorous test on the Constitution and be barred from running for office if they cannot answer at least 90% of the questions correctly.

9. A petition to Amend the Constitution (or repeal an Amendment)* can be submitted by any verified American citizen at any time. And any petition to Amend must be supported by a minimum of 50,000 signatures (this number can be modified to what may be considered reasonable) by verified American citizens to be achieved no later than 90 days prior to Election Day (the time period can also be modified to what is appropriate). Once enough signatures are obtained, the proposed Amendment is voted on within the originating state on Election Day (just Yes or No). If a vote achieves a 60% Yes vote or more, the proposed Amendment is then placed on the ballot in every state the following Election Day and is deemed ratified when passed by 60% or more of the states by 60% or more Yes votes per state.

* The Bill of Rights is exempt from Amendment or repeal

10. Reasonable term limits for every public office.

Again, repeal the 17th as well and return selecting US Senators to the State Legislatures where it belongs.
