Didn’t Henry VIII more of less reverse the Magna Carta by consolidating absolute power?

I’ve seen the copy that’s in Salisbury Cathedral, an historical curiosity in present day socialist Britain. Getting that way quickly here in Obama’s communist America.

There are quite a few original copies. I remember Ross Perot saying he bought a framed original. Instead of having it shipped, he just put it in his suitcase. At the airport one of the customs officers had him open his suitcase, and asked what he had.

“It’s the Magna Carta.”

“Oh. Very well, carry on.”
