      The process to amend the constitution. It’s all but impossible given modern politics, and that’s largely been true for 50 years and counting.

          Our election cycle cant be curtailed or shifted because our constitution can’t realistically be amended to match the saner policies in other countries. When our constitution is so antiqued that that “money is speech” becomes the law of the land, there is a core problem with the founding document itself.

          How it that not related to our election cycle?

            Because a constitutional convention is so wildly unlikely it’s just distracting from any actually helpful suggestions.
