It might be worth separating out the parts like the Bill of Rights from the more organizational pieces like the Presidential system and the Electoral College. Some of those pieces are “old as man” and others are the best ideas anyone had in the 18th century. In particular, the Presidential system has failed badly in almost every non-US country it’s been tried in, because it’s inherently unstable when there is a forceful President and polarized political parties. It may be failing us today in the US. https://delong.typepad.com/linz_perils_presidencialism.pdf https://delong.typepad.com/linz_perils_presidencialism.pdf
