Are the political systems currently followed enough for today and the coming generations, should we evolve new ones?
if so, which are all the possible successful sources we can derive them from.
A meaning of heterogeneous is: “consisting of elements that are not of the same kind or nature; the population of the United States is vast and heterogeneous" I’m guessing that this is what you have in mind.
Such considerations often occur because people aren’t familiar with how the system within the United States actually works. Specifically what I’m referring to its fundamental nature to evolve. Most people understand that this system is represented by the Constitution of the United States and that within it formal changing occurs with the Constitutional Amendment process. However, beyond that is the fact that this system has its roots in Common Law and as such supports evolution.
This occurs from a number of actions but primarily it is by acts of the people. For example, the people lobby for statute law changes and over time such can result in Constitutional Amendment changes.
Then too is such as the people’s negation of the law. When the people are among the jury of a criminal case, they have the power, to judge not only the facts of the case but the application of the law in that single specific case. While today the legal system mostly resists this jury power, up until the 1880s juries were instructed by the judge (of a criminal case) to judge not only the facts of the case, but to also judge the application of the law in that case. If the jury believe the law was wrong they could acquit simply for that reason and can still do so today. This is a power of the people which resides in Common Law going back into the past prior to Magna Carta.
As the people make a practice of nullifying a specific law, politicians eventually pick up on this and make statute law changes and these will lead eventually to Constitutional Amendments so that Common Law, Statute Law and Constitutional :aw are moving in the same path.
There is no need for some new approach because over time the people are doing so on their own. And this incorporates new societal and cultural concepts, and yet maintains the roots of the system we live within. That system is a written Constitutional Representative Republic and that is important in that in minimizes the power of the mob majority while protecting the rights of the individual.
Proportional representation is becoming popular in some circles here within the United States. However, we are nor a parliament for of system. Such a system rewards those who do not become active enough to win the rewards of the system. If you want to impact the system as a political force, then get active and convince others of your “rightness.”
We should keep in mind that we are not a democracy. The Founders established a system in which only members of the House of Representatives (the lower house) were elected by the people, and even then only the people of a narrowly defined district. Senators were originally elected by State legislatures (I wish we could get back to that) representing the State itself. The judges were appointed by the executive with advice and consent of the Senate and the President was selected by the Electoral College who’s members were originally selected by the State legislatures. You will notice that the voting of a democracy was really not part of the selection of governmental officials and there is a good reason for that, the Founders feared such a system knowing it would lead to a dictatorship.
All we need to make this work better is for the people to be proactive at the local, State, and national level.
