The real fly in the ointment is the Senate. It is obscene that such a nondemocratic body, where a state that has 39,185,605 people has the same number of senators as one with only 581,348, has so much control. The Senate is based upon the House of Lords, and the UK, and other countries with a representative house based upon the Lords, have stripped these bodies of most of their power. They can now only advise, but not prevent laws being enacted. The US Senate should also be stripped of such power, and confirmations should either be done by the House, or a committee appointed by them. Then, the US should reform the method of electing the president, and go to a popular vote. Then you would not have a president the majority disapproved of, making such consequential nominations.
