Will any govenor even with the best intentions with the trying his hardest REALLY be able to change anything??

Not in Alabama. Our governor really doesn't hold much power to begin with thanks to our archaic state constitution, which by the way is the longest constitution in the world. The legislature here holds all the power, and they are also the ones that would have to call a convention to rewrite the constitution. That's not happening.

As bad as our governor is, the legislature is even worse. Our Speaker of the House, arguably the most powerful position in Alabama government, was just convicted of 13 ethics violations and is likely going to jail.
