> Expanding Congress probably isn't a great idea though.
* Better representation - Originally 35K constituents/congressperson. Now 770K!
* More congresspeople (and therefore districts) also goes a long way to fix gerrymandering by itself.
* Counterbalances the recent shift toward supreme/imperial President.
* Would largely fix the distortions of the electoral college.
* Smaller campaigns and therefore less prone to monetary influence.
> Age limits I would support but its almost certainly unconstitutional.
We already have age limits: 18 to vote. 35 to be President.
