As in typewriters and butter churns. Perhaps, however, it is a loaded term. I'll think about it before I post. Thanks Outdated as in has out lived its purpose. As in typewriters and butter churns.

That's kind of the point. The Senate is supposed to protect the interests of states, not of persons. For the record, the Constitution is undemocratic as well: Not only does it prevent the will of the majority in many situations (See the counter-majoritarian difficulty), but it also guarantees a Republican form of government to the states. 2) Outdated is a loaded word. If you're going to run with this article, I would either amend the word outdated, or define very clearly what you mean by that concept before going into the topic. 3) Technically speaking, I'm not sure anything is preventing the Governator from running for President. He just couldn't take office if he won. That would be fun. A few comments on these topics:
