“In the era of modern technology, people could just vote on their phones for who they want to be judges. We could amend all of the ways in which we select our leaders, with the advent of modern technology. We haven't done so. It's actually served us fairly well. Ours is the longest enduring constitutional, written constitution in the world. At the moment, I think it's strained. It's showing the strains of politics and a frustration.” PeopleThinkingWorldDoneMomentsLeaderTechnologyModernJudgingVoteConstitutionEndureFrustrationSelectAdventModern Technology Author:Martha Minow
“I think frustration unfortunately, reflects a real breakdown in the political parties themselves, which is fascinating because our constitution did not anticipate political parties. They're not even written in the Constitution, there's no guidelines. When we look at the arcane processes of delegate selection in the primaries and caucuses, it's not in the Constitution. This is all created post Constitution. And yet I think we're in the middle of tensions between and within the political parties. They're not functioning that well.” ThinkingRealPoliticalPartyConstitutionTensionFrustrationPolitical PartiesBreakdown Author:Martha Minow
