I think an amendment to the Constitution would need to be voted on by the public in the first place. God only knows who would be responsible for putting that amendment on the ballot. If Congress would have to get it on the ballot, there is no chance of it. Do you think politicians want us sheep deciding how to run this country?
Plus, there could be some huge problems with allowing us to put in our own propositions. Imagine if somebody put something in there that would get rid of income taxes. Most of the public would probably vote for it because they are only thinking about themselves, and then where would the country be.
