Overhaul the Constitution:
Two hundred thirty years ago the Constitution of the United States of America was ratified.
Has anything changed in 230 years?
Has anything not changed in 230 years?
Let's see;.......transportation.....communication.......education.....
clothing style.......food supply......construction materials......science......
war materials........thousands of laws have been added......just about everything except our Constitution has been changed.
.
Are we afraid to suggest changes because of a Patriotic image?
.
Keep in mind that every time we pass a law or change a law we are amending the Constitution without the consent of the people.
.
Our Constitution and Amendments describe Freedoms; all supplemental laws diminish our freedoms.
It is time for a review and overhaul.
