Fred was exactly right. A 'living, breathing constitution' is the term liberals use when wanting to use Judicial Activism to put their agenda into force.

Why didn't Huckabee just say he supports Amendments to the Constitution? Words mean things.

That would require actual understanding something that seems lacking in Hope Arkansas and the poster you replied to....

Amending the Constitution for much of anything is unrealistic, as the nation is so divided. It takes 2/3 of both houses and 3/4 of the states to ratify amendments. Not likely in the Age of Bush and Clinton. So, I don’t see any amendments forthcoming. I also never expected No. 27 in 1992, but that is meaningless because the courts have ruled that COLA’s are not “pay raises”.
