“Fortunately, at least for now, the constitution protects us from ourselves.”

I agree that type of ignorance is not confined to blacks by any means, I only meant that they have tunnel vision regarding the democrat party.
I don’t understand the line I quoted above, how can the constitution protect us from ourselves? The constitution is being trampled in the dust every day, in my view most of what government does today is in violation of the constitution.

I guess what I meant was that the structure of government doesn’t allow us uneducated voters to vote for really stupid laws on a whim. You are right that the provisions of the constitution are often violated, but at least we have one that at least slows things down.
