Right now, I would rather have an establishment leader, that can stabilize our country again. I'm tired of entertainers and dividers. The only ones that seem to be able to do get along with both sides are Rubio, Kasich, Carson and maybe Bush. But Carson is not ready for the big time yet. Cruz cannot get along with anyone, and is more like Trump than he wishes to believe. I would rather we have a boring leader, than another entertainer that says he is going to do big, radical things to make our country great again. Celebrities are for TV ratings, not boring gov duty. SNL and the View should be off limits for all politicians. Golf should be banned also, except when on paid leave/vacation. Time for someone to gather congress together and tell them that it is time to work together or go home. Obamacare was a mistake and did not have the support of the country and was partisan. They need to rip it apart and redo it. NO more making laws by EO. Time to go back to a majority vote, not a simple majority. The supreme court should be limited in tenure and also not able to make law. Only interpret law.

What you are saying is "everything is wrong with our current government". Well, it is only going to get worse. Republicans have benefitted from their obstructionism. If they lose the next presidential election, they will continue to do. If they win, the Democratic will revert to obstructionism. What goes around, comes around.
Concerning Obamacare when Romney put its equal in Mass, the citizens were against it. When it worked, people approved of it. Over 98% of Mass. citizens have health insurance. Republicans never gave it chance to work. They have no replacement. They could put the same plan forward. That would take Obama's name off it, and than its identical twin would be perfectly acceptable to them.
Considering the egos in DC, who is going to tell them to do anything? The Gerrymandered districts guarantees their reelection. The House is answerable to no one now. The Senate is only a little better.
You could years, and years with an eight person Supreme Court. If the Republicans delay the approving a replacement for Scalia for the next year, the Democrats could and probably will filibuster the Republicans nominee/s, if a Republicans wins the election. Treat people the way expect to be treated yourself. The Republicans are pushing this snowball down the hill, and nothing is going to stop it. The egos in DC will guarantee that they will never accept the other person view on anything.
If the Supreme Court has a brain in their head, all controversial cases will be delayed until there is nine person court especially the executive order on immigration. If it goes forward, and there is a 4 to 4 vote on it, the lower court ruling applies, Republicans can say goodbye to the next election. They will get so few Hispanic votes that they will lose.
