This title in other formats:A More Perfect Constitution: Why the Constitution Must Be Revised: Ideas to Inspire a New Generationby Larry Sabato
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The political book of the year, from the acclaimed founder and director of the Center for politics at the University of Virginia. A More Perfect Constitution presents creative and dynamic proposals from one of the most visionary and fertile political minds of our time to reinvigorate our Constitution and American governance at a time when such change is urgently needed, given the growing dysfunction and unfairness of our political system . Combining idealism and pragmatism, and with full respect for the original document, Larry Sabatos thought-provoking ideas range from the length of the presidents term in office and the number and terms of Supreme Court justices to the vagaries of the antiquated Electoral College, and a compelling call for universal national serviceall laced through with the history behind each proposal and the potential impact on the lives of ordinary people. Aware that such changes wont happen easily, but that the original Framers fully expected the Constitution to be regularly revised, Sabato urges us to engage in the debate and discussion his ideas will surely engender. During a presidential election year, no book is more relevant or significant than this. Synopsis:Sabato, founder of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia, ventures bravely into the controversial waters of constitutional reform, arguing that the founders never intended the Constitution to be timeless.
