Or we could go back to actually following Constitutional intent. In that, the executive branch isn't the most powerful at all. Congress is.

I wonder if that idea would support enhancing the Congress with more members + more true-representational (not Gerrymandered) membership, and eliminating the Senate?

I have Zero fundamental understanding of governing, or best-practices for representational government, nor for my own / USA's system. And I wonder wtf should I actually know, in order to fore-arm myself for this upcoming period where the USA must adapt to the perils of this new age.
