I'm not saying make it a litmus test. I don't think anybody would even pass, as most of the big name candidates (Warren, Harris, Sanders, Gillibrand, Booker, maybe Brown or Klobuchar) would be endorsing the idea of putting themselves out of a job. But yes, this should be a long-term goal as a possible constitutional amendment someday. If not abolishing the Senate, at least reforming it.
