It amazes me that one of the largest countries in the world, with the most diverse demographics, can only chose between two candidates. This is not democracy. It’s a shit show that has been going on for far too long.
Tradition and inertia.
The USA is proud to have the oldest and longest-standing written constitution. The fact it hasn’t been rewriteen in a long time help explain why there’s still an electoral college, slavery for prisoners (13th amendements), and weak regulation of campaign finance.
Oldest active constitution is San Marino.
That’s interesting. Thanks for pointing it out.
My point is having a very old constitution isn’t much of a boast if keeping it as-is causes political issues.
