Yep, if we get through this, we need to pass an amendment making it easier to pass an amendment. We need to amend this whole process, we spend far too much time battling over who can vote, what is needed to vote, gerrymandering, purging the voter rolls, researching how to skew the vote in a new legal way, loading the courts, gaming the system so a minority can rule, etc.

My brother thinks Dems/Libs are a minority that want to rule the country. I would've asked him to explain except at that point the object is to get him to not explode - once he explodes it's off into a rant that usually has little to do with the conversation.

The problem is that nearly all of the interesting conversations are political. MAGAs generally can have those conversations on the internet, but not in person - they get too angry. I did manage to get him interested in a fix for the metal flashing coming off the fascia eve to the top of my aluminum patio. I have two overlapping flashings coming from under the eve that need to be sealed so they don't leak. Putting sealant in might no be difficult, but how to get the flashing to stick together so the sealant can work? I thought some neodymium (sp?) magnets might do the trick. Have to see if the flashings are magnetic (they might be aluminum).
