"A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 89% of U.S. Likely Voters want to continue using the Constitution as the fundamental law of the United States."
The problem is that many citizens probably don’t know why the Founding States wrote the Constitution in the first place. And as a consequence of not knowing the purpose of the Constitution, they don’t understand that the corrupt federal government has been been increasingly ignoring its constitutionally limited powers for the last 100+ years, arguably becoming a meaningless piece of paper within years after it was ratified, not surviving the Civil War in particular (insure domestic tranquility; yeah, right), the Constitution finally going up in flames when FDR was president.
So while people’s hearts are hopefully in the right place, their response to Rasmussen about the Constitution amounts to a PC, “flag, motherhood and apple pie” way to at least sound patriotic imo.
They really want to push people to war.
it should be, yes
but it cannot “still be”
because Obama and Company only have contempt for it so that it has not been operative for years already
Our Constitution is based on God-given rights. It can be ignored, refused or violated, but it cannot die.
wtf?!
anyone that proposes this question should be ejected from the country immediately for sedition
That's a good number...
Since when did the US Constitution become “The Law of the Land”? Do most Americans know it was substituted for the Communist Manifesto after WWII?
of course it should, there should be no question
Yet 44% consistently support Marxist democrats
Fascinating
But stupid
