senators should be appointed
I believe that we should change both the US constitution and the Idaho constitution and have the Senators be appointed again like the original intent of the framers was. The role of the Senator has been change and not for the good, the senator should not be representing the interests of the people but that of the state, while the representatives will represent the people.

If I understand the author correctly, I agree. The Amendment that caused the Senators be voted on by the people should be repealed. The State Legislatures elected the person they wanted "to represent the state." The Representatives were meant to represent the PEOPLE.
