That said it is the far end of both spectrum that have ruined this system and those are the ones I would like be to be eliminated from the process or educated back in.

and go back to using the Constitution to run the country.
You aren't even following the Constitution with your suggestion on voting by merit.

This is a democracy. We have a Constitution that we follow. All are created equal. Every citizen can vote, even radical anarchists and KKK members, and even people "on the far ends" that you think need to be "re-educated".
