Pretty much off point entirely, except as to an abstract in a fact vacuum.

I maintain that there does not appear to be any individual, group, or movement active today which would not reflect a diminished intellect, morality or both compared to the existing document. Is the engine out of tune? Yes. Do I want repairs effected by chimpanzees? No.

You're wring: it doesn't have to be the exact [or exceeding of the] moral character or intelligence of the founders, but merely above those who declare this is what the constitution means (supreme court, constitutional political lawyers) or those who ignore the constitution (the executive and the legislative)… which is not hard to do. Granted, the higher one is in their moral character (and intelligence) the better for governance.

PS — What do you think of these?
