Flash: Bush proposes Constitutional Amendment banning same-sex marriage

On Tuesday, George W. Bush officially endorsed a Constitutional Amendment banning same-sex marriage. It seems unlikely that this amendment will pass, as already several Republicans have indicated their opposition, and Democratic opposition is solid.


Here is an Amendment which SHOULD be passed with all haste:

The Electoral College, as described in Article II, Section 1, Clauses 2-4, is hereby abolished.

The President shall forthwith be chosen by direct election of the People.

America is now a grown-up nation and a proven democracy. The few times the electoral process has failed has been when the Electoral college was not in accord with the majority vote--as in the election of Bush 43 and Rutherford B. Hayes, IIRC
