Is It Broken?

Many would claim that the fighting and winning of the American Revolution permitted the framing of the Constitution as the enduring foundation for our government. They point out that this hotly debated document, forged during the summer of 1787, has stood the test of time - 220 years.
Professor Larry Sabato in his book "A More Perfect Contitution" argues that serious surgery is needed to bring it into the 21st centry. Among the proposed 23 changes needed:
permit those not born in the US to become president
limit the president's authority to continue to wage war to 6 months
reallocate the number of Senate seats based on population and double
the membership of the House
limit federal judges to a term of 15 years
reform the electoral college

Should we make the Constitution "fairer and more effective?"
