Synopsis

To restore equity for ordinary citizens to the American political system, the author of The Sixth Year Itch makes a call for radical revisions to the Constitution and offers a series of creative and dynamic proposals to reinvigorate the document to incorporate changes to the structure of Congress, the Electoral College, the Supreme Court, and a mandatory national service.
