In my opinion,the laws need to be changed.In regards to how Senators are appointed.They should be elected to do the business of the people.The way it is now.They have to vote along party lines with no exceptions what so ever.So they are all for POLITICAL PARTIES and not for the people.
UPP tek notes jak. Nah bother full up the Senate with all them ole fossil put at lease 2 smaddy under the age of 40 in dey. And for the love of God leave Jonathan Joseph out this time.
