ONE issue is we should repeal the ammendment (17th Ithink) that changed senators to statewide elective office. The system was designed that the states two senators were there to represent the state interests, not the people directly. It was one of the first big wins of the progressive movement. We are screwed Billy now that Jeff Sessions isn't in the Senate any longer, replaced by Luther can't tell the truth er Strange. The ONLY time you hear anything from or about Shelby is when he is on the ballot. Bentleys appointment of Strange was at the very least unethical and quite possibly illegal. He was the AG with an open investigation into Bentley when Bentley appointed him. There is a law against prosecutors accepting jobs from folks they are investigating. There is one representative that swears Bentley told him he was aware Luther was corrupt so he was sending him to Washington to get him out of Alabama. I believe that probably did happen. Of course the real reason was to end the investigation. That worked out well for him, huh. I have also heard three representatives say if not for that appointment Bentley would still be governor. That was the straw that broke the camels back. Bentley also didn't set a special election so Luther won't have to run till next fall. He's been in Washington a few short days already raised nearly a million bucks. He is also already running campaign ads for an election in November of 2018..

I am hoping someone files ethics complaints or even a legal challenge to the appointment before we are stuck with him for 30+ years along with worthless Shelby.
