Ideally, I'd like for us to consider a Constitutional Convention every 50 years or so to make some changes, but in our current political climate, I don't expect that would be a very fruitful exercise

When I think about the kind of people who probably would be selected as delegates to a constitutional convention today, I have a lot of trouble imagining that they would improve on the Constitution as it now exists. I find it easier to believe that they would do a great deal of harm.
