A More Perfect Constitution is the latest book from American political scientist Larry J. Sabato. In it, Sabato calls for a new constitutional convention to update the United States Constitution. Sabato draws on his three decades of experience as a political analyst in proposing this radical step, making reference to historical and political events as he makes his case. He draws his idea of revision from the founding fathers, who felt that the Constitution should not last forever but should instead be revised by each generation.

  • A More Perfect Constitution is the latest book from American political scientist Larry J. Sabato. In it, Sabato calls for a new constitutional convention to update the United States Constitution. Sabato draws on his three decades of experience as a political analyst in proposing this radical step, making reference to historical and political events as he makes his case. He draws his idea of revision from the founding fathers, who felt that the Constitution should not last forever but should instead be revised by each generation. Sabato notes that, after the Bill of Rights, there have only been 17 Constitutional amendments over the past 220 years and makes the argument that a Constitutional convention is overdue. (en)
