jamese, when you can prove that the Constitution & original intent wasn’t written until the 21st century, 233 yrs after it was ratified, then & only then will you have a viable argument.

I’m sure that you are aware that James Madison proposed what became the 27th Amendment to the Constitution in 1789 and it only took 202 years for that Amendment to get ratified in 1992.
“Original intent” was for Senators to NOT be directly elected by the people, for women not to be able to vote, for slaves to count as 3/5ths of a free person for purposes of congressional apportionment and for “Indians not taxed” not to count at all for purposes of congressional apportionment.
The framers established a system of amending their work.
