Should the senate be changed?

[Frenchrepublican]

Some of the posts on this thread are absolutely crazy and just illustrate the hate that liberals have for the US Constitution, and more generally for democray, but also their incredible hypocrisy.

First it seems that the original poster and some other red avatars have some problems with basic algebria.
Contrary to what they think the US Senate is not a collection of a bunch of small, right wing states, opressing a majority of large, blue states.

Here is a quick look at some demographics data.
*The 10 largest states (CA/TX/FL/NY/PA/IL/OH/GA/NC/MI) are sending 10 democratic senators and 10 republican senators. In other words the most populous states have a equally partisan Senate delegation. Yeah, sorry democrats, large states are not just California.
*The 10 smallest states (WY, VT, ND, AK, SD, DE, RI, MT, ME, NH) are, (BIG SURPRISE) also sending a equal number of democratic and republicans senators. You see, liberals ? Sparsely populated states are not just WY or SD, they are also VT and DE (the states from where your two main presidential contenders are coming from)

So the idea that the US Senate is some kind of oppressive institution which is giving the ability to rural rednecks to bully the good, progressive, people of New York is not resisting to the facts. And I guess that you aren't thinking that the Senate is somewhat unfair to conservative Texans as it gives a disproportionate power to progressive Vermonites , right ?

Secondly, and it's why liberals are, generally speaking, so hard to trust, your critics of the Senate are not motivated by sincere reformist arguments, but by a partisan point of view.

Abolishing the Senate is great from your perspective when democrats are the minority, but strangely in 2011 or in 2013, when the democratic Senate majority led by Harry Reid was provided Obama a protective wall against conservative legislations from the House, the Senate and the inbalance between the small and the large states wasn't a problem for you.
