Whiskey Rebellion 099: Can the Constitution Handle 2019?

Building on a discussion at SHEAR and on Twitter (h/t Serena Zabin) and a recent Amicus podcast, Frank and David discuss whether the Constitution has outlived its usefulness, including:

• Whether an 18th century document is appropriate for governing in the 21st century
• How much the Constitution has changed since 1787
• Whether the Senate and the Electoral College can/should be reformed
