Nobody can figure out what the founders did.
I wonder what the popular drugs were at the time.
Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Samuel Johnson, 1775
Religion....is the opiate of the people. Karl Marx, 1848

A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

In other words, the Senate is a creature of party politics. Not the Founders intention and couldn't have been since party politics were a thing of the future in 1787. The real point is Senators know where their bread is buttered and it's strictly with the voters in their states.

No, the real point is that those people who are in Congress now are the worst useless treasonous fucks in Congress we have ever seen, bar none.
Buckle Up Fuckers!
The bottom line is that conservatives cant admit to themselves the Evil they have allowed to romp on their watch.
This is going to hurt.

The feds don't run education now, but even if they did, what is the reason they shouldn't?
"Because the Constitution" isn't a valid reason due to the General Welfare clause.
You are incoherent.

Expand on the "different approach". What does that mean? Because it's very vague and ambiguous...I think that is intentional on your part to be as vague and ambiguous as possible so that you can wiggle around the parameters of your argument.

Well, simply moving is easier said than done, and the Constitution does grant Congress the power to legislate for the General Welfare of the US, of which education is inarguably a part.
So what is the argument FOR ceding ambiguous "education" to the states?
As I asked before, do kids in Minnesota learn a different kind of calculus than kids in Mississippi? And if so, what is the difference?

Of which there is a 6-3 partisan bent.
So you're arguing that SCOTUS is non-partisan, but it clearly is partisan since 4 of the 6 Conservative justices were nominated by a Conservative who lost the popular vote, and 5 of the 6 Conservative justices were approved by Senators that represent less than half the population of the country.

What is the philosophical argument for letting state legislatures pick Senators? Because it seems like your argument is "because I want it that way", which is very insolent and childish.
The State is the People, and the People are the State. The State would be nothing without the People, but the People could exist without the State.State legislatures or governors picked the senators to represent THE STATE, not the people
So what? You still haven't given an adequate reason why you want to abolish a Constitutional Amendment.By going to a direct popular vote for senators, the Senate is now a carbon copy of the House only with longer terms in office.
"Just because" isn't a reason. You need to do better.

the people are not the state.
morality is a set of beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors that facilitate voluntary, cooperative and mutually beneficial relationships.

Literally 10 months ago, you people attempted a coup in order to overturn an election and install a dictator.
Well, YOU didn't do that...you just egged it on from the sidelines.

I know you hate having to read historical or legal documentation because it fucks with your delusional outlook, but maybe you should try reading the 10th Amendment and see that it does indeed classify the state and the people as two different entities
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
