In the book No Democracy Lasts Forever, the author asserts that the only way a polarized America can avoid secession is to draft a new Constitution, because, he suggests, the Constitution has become a threat to American democracy. Erwin Chemerinsky, the dean of Berkeley Law School, has come to the sobering conclusion that the 1787 Constitution has created a government unable to deal with the urgent issues that threaten our nation. He contends that the U.S. needs a new constitutional convention to replace the 1787 Constitution and rewrite the entire document from start to finish else we face possible secession.
