Our objective is to provide Patriots across our nation with a touchstone of First Principles through brief, informative and entertaining analyses of relevant news, policy and opinion from reputable research, advocacy and media organizations, so they may better support and defend those Principles, and enlist others to join our ranks." —Mark Alexander, Publisher

Not that I can see from my reading of the Constitution. As you know, the President is elected by the Electoral College. Senators used to be selected by the States, but has since been corrupted by 17th Amendment. Representatives are selected "by the People of the several States," (Article 1, Section 2). I don't know if the definition of "People" included only landowners, but I don't believe that it ever was.
