re: #253 KGxvi

I know, but what I’m saying is:

In the original structure of the federal government senators were really representing state governments. But that went out the window with direct elections. And when we amended the constitution to allow for filling a vacant VP office, we included the house in the process.

So why shouldn’t we support an amendment to include the House in other appointments?

Not sure that adding another veto point to a system that already has too many would be helpful. The House could well be controlled by the GOP in 2023.
