Given that the mechanisms put into place by the Constitution of the United States of America

failed of their operation in the election of every President after George Washington,

can one truly say the Government, and by extension any administrative concern, even the very sovereignty of the nation that is called the United States of America,

is at all valid

in its own terms, let alone

the eyes of any other sovereign state upon the planet called Terra?

Of course. Why would it not be? Since the Constitution can be changed (and has been, from time to time), if there are perceived problems with it they can be fixed.

That is an interesting observation about the only valid presidential election being for George Washington. Upon what do you base such a claim? If you are dragging out the old, tired "majority of the people" argument, perhaps you should read some civics texts and realize The United States of America is NOT a democracy but a republic, created so because those who wrote the constitution realized that a democracy is the least stable form of government and would destroy itself very quickly, given the fact that "democracy" is just another term for "mob rule".

Of course the government is "valid", and even has provisions for changing it in the constitution.
