Congress has always done it. It takes a 2/3s vote of both chambers of Congress to propose.

It can also be done by a constitutional convention called for by 2/3s of the states. But that hasn't ever occurred since the adoption of the Constitution.

The winner-take-all nature of the Electoral college forces out slender concentration, constrained charm applicants. whether, if a third occasion grow to be to make a pass of it, there's a fashion. it may contain getting a super form of compatible human beings to pass to a moderately populated state that already has favorable tendencies. Christian Conservatives to SC, Environmentalists to OR or WA, socialists to VT, and so on. Then, get applicants to run for statewide place of work; governor, senator, and so on. Then while the presidential election comes around, run that candidate with the aim not a lot of winning the presidency, yet winning the state. removing that states electoral votes will generate the variety of acceptance which will stress the different 2 events to manage the third occasion’s concerns.
