The Senate was designed by the smart white sliver of professional gentlemen founders, the folks Brooks now takes aim at here, as a check and balance against the rural mob of dumb ignorant white citizens Krugman now bemoans as electors.
The Senate was neither designed, nor intended, ever in the future, for anyone who was not both white, well educated, well born, and of substantial means.
The electorate was to be white men of some means; not merely a driver's license.
They never envisioned electors as people of color, any color, or any religion besides Protestant Christianity.
