I have not heard that. For what reason are they calling for a direct democracy?A lot of people (the OWS crowd, for example) are calling for it though. And more and more people seem to think democracy should trump constitutionality.
Yes that's a new one on me, personally I would just like to make lobbyists as they are now a thing of the past, that alone would do a lot to bring things closer to a satisfactory balance.
Lobbying your Representatives is legal and Constitutional. To take that away from the People would be illegal and a violation of their rights. I do agree the big money Lobbyists have too much of an advantage but they do have that right to lobby their Representatives. Freedom,Liberty,and the Constitution trumps all in the end.
