I like our Constitution. Ratified in 1791, it has provided the framework for one of the dynamic and successful countries in the history of countries. It is true that it has been amended 27 times, and stretched and fiddled with a bit here and there over the years by the Courts, but that should be expected, as things are more than a little different today than they were in 1791. Still, I like it and wish only that we pay closer attention to it. Having said all that, may I go strongly on record as being in favor of the following as the 28th Amendment?
"Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators and/or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States."

I'll give you three. Amen, Amen, and Amen! It's just so blatantly common-sensible. Any yet, look how many in congress won't touch it. Why not? Thanks! E.
