    > - a Constitutional Amendment to clarify the Secretary of State's job, to make them the chief civil servant and ombudsman of the Republic, and clarify what jobs they can delegate to other people;

    yes, good one.

    > - a "Penalty Box" act, making it a crime to, basically, be a bully in the Republic and attempt to drive people out;

    aren't we here to close to "crime of majesty misprision"? intuitively, i do not like this.

    > - an Emergency Powers amendment to the Constitution, which would specify what would happen if the structures of government break down altogether (like, if 2/3 of active citizens quit or disappear);

    yes, yes, we need dictator! :-D

    > - the National Destiny referendum;

    surely, but the debate must come first. we need to clearly define the possible ways, out of which the choices for voting may come out. simple YES/NO referendum will not create any result.

    > - a Constitutional Amendment to make the Senats an unelected "house of elders" with limited powers rather than a provincial house, more like the Canadian Senate.

    shouldn't we let el senäts sleep if we hardly have manpower to run current institutions? this is in my eyes unnecessary formalism.

    > Is anyone interested in me proposing any of these bills to the Chamber in the rest of the term, or even in seeing the text of them to see if they had any useful ideas?

    yes, at least points 1, 3 and 4 are realistic and useful, IMO.
