MSNBC Legal Commentator Claims the US Constitution Is 'Kind of Trash'

In 2014, Antonin Scalia and Ruth bader Ginsburg gave a joint interview, and one of the questions was if they could wish one constitutional Amendment into adoption, what would it be.
Ginsburg said she would wish for the equal Rights Amendment. Scalia was not specific, but said he would wish for an amendment to make future amendments easier. I agree with Scalia, it is too hard to amend the Constitution. The legislature just cannot build that kind of consensus. Which is why all this pressure falls on judges to reinterpret it. Something as simple as requiring the state legislatures to give every proposed amendment an up or down vote within a year, or going the other way and requiring US Congress to actually bring things proposed by the states to the floor. The article V process for a convention of states is ignored, and that needs to change.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
