Eagle5US--

To clarify, I think supporting such an initiative would be politically self destructive. Generally, the conservative critique of the left is that it wants to keep changing the rules in the name of "social justice." We argue that America has gone off the tracks because these numerous rule changes have changed the game to something much different than what was originally intended. We argue that getting America back on track requires getting back to the rules as written.

MOO, Mr. Biltis's proposal undermines this critique in several ways. Most notably, it calls for a rule change as drastic as any alteration that the left currently wants. If we're going to say "Let's use a version of the rules as close as humanly possible to the one the founders used," we should not support initiatives that takes us in the opposite direction and empowers the opposition to call for even more rule changes.

IMO, the way for the right to bring balance back to American political life is to demonstrate that we can find ways to address many of today's problems within the rules, not by changing them time and again.
