I have a proposal.
Bicameral System Proposal:
I suggest we have a 10 region system, with delegates to a House delegated by population of region, with a 20 delegate limit. The second house will be a Senate, with one delegate from each region and no nationally elected Senators. Bills will be passed with the same system as the current USA system. This will get more people into the game and allow more people a chance to participate. There will be no governors. Each region will be self governing. Any duties, if there were any, of the governor will go either to a Senator or a Representative.

President: Our president will be elected by majority vote, as it is now. However, I propose that the VP and the President be elected separately, to promote more interest in elections and the office of President.

I don't necessarily agree with it, but I'll sponsor it out of my desire to get as many proposals as possible into the Convention. I hope another delegate will second my decision.

I second it simply in order to provide choice. I disagree with the proposed system.

I am glad you chose to second it, and respect my plan enough to give it a chance in the "national spotlight," so to speak.
