“The Framers purposely avoided the temptation to draft a code of laws. High crimes mean today what it meant in 1787.” — Jacquerie

Judicious response, but not a solution.
Today’s reality: The Constitution is already ‘codified’ by supporters of centralized government.
And this is the congress that will keep President Ebola in check?

That’s why I am calling for a three-part plan:
1. Support Mark Levin’s Liberty Amendments.
2. Support impeachment and congressional purse string tightening.
3. Refuse to wait-and-hope for EITHER — call for states to excoriate and neuter DC.
And the the current ‘supreme’ Court already looks at us as ‘bitter clingers’. For example:
Supreme Court lifts hold on gay marriage in Kansas

That’s judicial activism — there is no traditional definition of ‘gay marriage’ let alone any natural law that supports it. The federal courts have NO enumerated power to legislate new definitions and modern legal codes. But despite that, most of them actually BELIEVE they are accurately interpreting the ‘breathing document’ as they call it due to the rat-maze of progressive court precedent and modern ‘education’.
[I’ll next explain why ‘higher’ education has trouble digesting bold conservative change.]
People stayed on the ‘straight-and-narrow’ back then.
When those moral and ‘small federal power’ underpinnings were corrupted, Marxist professors enjoyed a century of indoctrination opportunities. This includes cult-like alienation from traditional values, such as murder of the unborn, fornication, divorce-on-demand, normalizing perversion, being ‘citizens of the world’, being ‘too wise to restrict one’s political view to the Founding Fathers’, etc. These are wedges against our forefathers’ clear understanding of the US success story that began to rot after President Taft [when Teddy R. drove a wedge between conservatives].
As strange as it sounds, college education gets in the way of pondering solutions because it is deeply flawed. We now need creativity to unite with ‘small government’ scholars.
. . . . .
Empathizing with our Best Legal Minds
Today's only ‘legal creativity’ is tyranny by activist-judges. It is so deeply ingrained that the heroic side of our legal culture has been conditioned to despise ‘creative’ law. This means that they will be deeply uncomfortable with rapid change. That is also why they cling so desperately to ‘court precedent’. So do not be surprised if they are resistant.
Law reform is exciting to most people, but it's terrifying to most ‘small government’ scholars. We must remember that conforming to precedent is how they were educated. [Education reform is something else we will work on.]
They devoted their lives to this career and often hate the outcomes of bad precedent, convinced that they had no real choice. Their world was forged by leftists and they have trouble imagining it any other way. We should be patient with them.
. . . . .
Legal scholars and state legislators alike could study a few anti-central-power manuals much more easily than the breathing, vague spasms of modern mainstream ‘constitutional’ law. In fact, such manuals would be easier to WRITE than to study modern interpretation.
. . . . .
We need to move forward with a BOLD contingency plan that puts the entire federal government on a short leash in anticipation of congressional and judicial dereliction of duty.
Every time that contingency plan moves forward — pressure will grow, and congress might get feebly ‘decisive’ for a change.
But a band aid has a better chance of curing gangrene than Bone-head or tea party enemy McConnell have of curing our nation's ills.
