I haven't read the whole thing yet, just the list posted here.

For anyone who has read it, who exactly do they want to "certify" the constitutionality of each bill before it is voted on? Do they specify? Am I wrong or is the Supreme Court the only body that can legally decide that? Do they expect the Supreme Court to weigh in on every bill? If not, if it is somebody else, then I don't really see how they can really certify anything regarding constitutionality. Also, as amendments are added to each bill during the debate process, would it need to get re-certified?
That whole suggestion seems rather odd and impractical at first glance.
