[QUOTE="Old Man Jingles, post: 3618231, member: 18222"] And these states will lean towards liberal/urban tendencies. These people, like the left today, will want to ignore the Constitution and make new laws through the Judicial and Executive branches. The real issue is that we are citizens of the United States of America . The issue is that the Constitution is designed to give power to States and protect individuals. Amendment 17 took a swipe at this but didn’t really do much. So I believe your ‘problematic’ concern is that 70% of the people will be underrepresented looking at it from the individual POV. However, the Constitution does exactly what it was designed to do and that is to equalize power amongst the states. In other words, all the rancor we are experiencing now will get worse. [/QUOTE]
