Back to Equality and Freedom: Amend the Constitution to vote on the laws

With the election over - or not, recounts are ongoing - We must turn to the solving the problem of representative democracy, of our Representatives, and to take back the power of voting for people and make it voting for laws,executives, and judges. We need to work to get this Amendment, or one that changes the government to these ends, passed and put in the Constitution.

1. The legislative function of the United States shall be performed directly by the people according to Article I of the Constitution and legislation that the people enact. If a bill is passed it is then sent to the President for signature, veto, or pocket veto, following Article I Section 7 of this constitution.

3. The President and Vice President of the United States shall be elected by the people. The Electoral College is hereby rescinded.
4. One ninth of the  Federal Judiciary shall be elected every year by the citizens of their respective jurisdictions. Currently serving judges will be up for election in reverse order of their years of service, longest serving next to be elected until such time as all have been elected.
2. The President and Vice President of the United States shall be directly elected by the people to four year terms and shall not serve more than two such terms.
3. One ninth of the Federal Judiciary shall be elected every year by the citizens of their respective jurisdictions. Currently filled judgeships will be elected in reverse order of their years of service, longest serving is next to be elected until all have been elected.
