Just read an interesting article by Sanford Levinson (no relation, as far as I know) in last Sunday's Boston Globe
Get Me Rewrite
"George Washington didn't think the Constitution was sacrosanct -- why do we? It's time for a new constitutional convention."
I think the author makes some convincing arguments about problems in our government due to some legacies of the constitution. For example, he mentions the problem with the Electoral College -- that sometimes the presidential candidate with the most popular votes doesn't win the election.
