  1. Australian here: I went to college in America in the late 80s on a sports scholarship. I had a fabulous time with my only regrets being that I was too young to really appreciate it at the time and that I have lost contact with many of my friends there. I studied aerospace engineering but a bunch of those friends were pre-law and often dragged me into their conversations. So I got a unusual education into the US Constitution. Prior to that my only study into political systems was Orwell (1984 & Animal Farm) so my only argument was that ANY country could fall into a totalitarian dictatorship (Right or Left) because that was Orwell's warning. It doesn't matter if you go to far Right or too far Left its the same result. My friends used to argue (and they always won) that it was impossible for America to fall because it had a system of "Checks & Balances" built into the system that would never allow such a thing to happen to America. We never discussed the possibility that the system could fail, but then we never we never considered what the Federalist Society planned and executed. The American POLITICAL system revolves around the 3 pillars of the Executive (including the President) the house and the Senate. The American LEGAL system relies on the various layers to make sure that EVERY American is equally treated under the law. The idea or concept that a small group created out of students at 3 universities (Harvard, Yale and U. Chicago) could (overtime) completely subvert the Supreme Court and use that along with there big money supporters to undermine the System of Checks & Balances and then re-write the Constitution wasn't simply unthinkable it wasn't even a concept under consideration. Here's the crazy thing. The Federalist Society was founded in 1982 and it was already underway BEFORE my friends and I had any of those conversations. We didn't even know it existed let alone what its plans were, let alone that it would find billionaires willing to fund what they wanted. Until America is willing to accept that it has been hijacked by a tiny group of people who have managed to suck tens of millions of people into their web of lies then America will remain a foundering ship in danger of sinking. The problem for the rest of the world is we, the human race, face some very big issues like climate change, wars, food shortages, water shortages,... etc. We DO NOT NEED America to solve these issues, but it becomes so much harder when America is what it is now. Sorry for the long comment. I do believe American Constitution is one of humanities finest achievements but right now its being undermined by some incredibly selfish people and it has global effects.
