The representative body can be established without a change to the Constitution.

[-] seiryth@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

Not really. Because if it could, it would have. This forces it to happen without liberal/conservative interference.

The fact that it's been impossible thus far to create a significant body to the point where said group of people have forced a referendum to occur should be enough proof that it needs to occur.

The other part of this is it's not the US. No one knows our constitution, and up until this point most probably didn't even know we had one..
