Hey...Sway...that proves my point...you are FOR things that 75% would reject!
Beez....I'd settle for 2 out of 5!

Actually I am just throwing those out there to make the point that not all issues are defined by being conservative or liberal and that we might find a bunch of things to pretty much agree on that would allow our government to work better and which might acknowledge some of the changes since 1787 in society and technology (i.e. when war can begin and be over in a matter of hours...the advice and consent of congress is rather impractical yet today we have pretty much ceded the ability to make war for extended periods to the president.) Shouldn't the constitution speak to that issue?

Oh well...I can dream.
