In the US Constitution''s Preamble, Madison wrote of achieving "a more perfect union." Is it just a pipe dream, or is it actually achievable?
Is Jimmy Madison's team of "a more perfect union" possible to achieve?

It was basically American Olde English for 'wow, we really fucked up with those Articles of Confederation, huh? Lets try and do better this time.'

Yeah, the AofC were a comedy routine. They're a mutual admiration society of perpetual innocence of the idiot variety. Something happened between their development and the Constitution, and I suspect much of that was in the person of James Madison, because while he participated in the debate resulting in the AofC, he rallied against much of what its result was, and was an advocate championing their replacement by a Constitution. My admiration of Jimmy Madison is boundless.

I think it is achievable if we elect Zohran Mamdani President of the USA!
While it’s fine to support Zohran Mamdani’s political ideas, claiming he could help achieve a “more perfect union” as President ignores two major problems. First, he’s constitutionally ineligible. He was born in Uganda, and Article II of the U.S. Constitution requires the president to be a natural-born citizen. That’s a hard stop, no matter how compelling someone finds his platform. Second, there’s no track record of him actually unifying anything. As a New York State Assembly member, his influence has been mostly limited to a specific political niche, not broad coalition-building. Elevating someone to the highest office in the country should be based on demonstrated leadership and constitutional eligibility, not wishful thinking on ideological alignment alone.
