Well, no, you just a need a coalition that collectively is more powerful.

We already have two such coalitions within Congress: Republicans and Democrats.

How is that working out?

Those are coalitions of politicians, which to an increasing extent are part of the "powerful" group that needs to be overridden. By coalitions I mean coalitions of the actual citizenry.
