Is the United States facing a constitutional crisis?

In addition to information available in the textbook and supplemental videos, you are to find and use any legitimate information source to obtain information about making American government more responsive to the issue demands the country faces today (use keywords to search). Though you will consult and list your sources, you must not quote or paraphrase from them—you must write in your own words (failure to follow this instruction leads to an automatic reduction of points). Below you will find some of the ideas under consideration to make American government more responsive: Several proposals are floating around (and some states have adopted) to change the way congressional election districts are drawn in order to produce less partisanship in political decision making. Several states, including Texas, have passed resolutions calling for a new constitutional convention whose purpose would be to draw up a new national constitution. A popular proposal calls for term limits on members of the US House and US Senate to promote greater turnover—and perhaps greater responsiveness—in Congress. A significant movement wants to see the Citizens United US Supreme Court ruling allowing corporations and unions to fund campaigns overturned or repealed by constitutional amendment. Once you have adequately researched the topic, you will prepare a 540 word (minimum) essay that argues in support of or opposition to the idea that the United States is in a constitutional crisis. You must back up your argument by specifically describing why you take your position and demonstrating your understanding of the information you have learned in Module 1. Your response must be written in academic English. You will use your own voice and write in your own words. To earn full points you must follow all instructions carefully, proofread for writing errors, and submit on time. Upload your essay by clicking on the yellow submit button to open the text box.
