It seems like the alphabet has been pretty stagnant for a long time with minimal opportunities for advancement but 'R' has really been showing some good stuff lately and deserves recognition for it

I think 'vowels' and 'consonants' are outdated labels that lead to bigotry and hatred, all letters matter.

Um, OP, Vowel is actually a DEmotion. Vowels aren't the standouts, they are the trouble letters so obsessed with themselves that they say their own name to steal the spotlight from the rest of the word. The other letters are team players. I know R ha made some mistakes in the past but if you demote R to vowel it would devastate its self-esteem.

I think consenants have it easy. Think about it. Vowels are like the over-worked, underpaid lower class employees. Theres only 5 regulars and 1 on-call (y can sometimes be a vowel) and they are expected to be in literally every word of the english language. Meanwhile there are TWENTY other letters just laughing it up with their cushy jobs only expected to actually do work every so often. unfair i think, i think ALL vowels need a promotion, or i think that some more letters need to be DEMOTED to vowels.

What about X? It is a really pointless letter: X-ray? Spell it Ecks-ray Xenophobia? It's pronounced with a Z ffs. As is Xylophone. Why do we have X?

None of you jerks will believe me, but I had this exact conversation with my kids when I tucked them in last night. I told em vowels are sounds you can sustain with your mouth open, without having to use your tongue. The five year old was like "what about R?" Little fucker is right. Vote R 2016
