This is getting sickening and it proves that Freerepublic has 'evolved' and is no longer a conservative website monitored to sweep up the trash that spills here from the DNC.

Since when do Conservatives advocate rewriting the Constitution?

What a stupid question! Go back to smarmy lurk mode, you’re a joke. [[And for reference, consider the prohibition Act and subsequent revocation. Sheesh]]

To be fair, these birthers who call themselves "conservatives" and, most laughably, "patriots" weren't looking to have the Constitution re-written. Instead, they were looking for an activist judiciary that views the Constitution as a "living document" from which to manufacture favorable rulings out of thin air and reverse a presidential election because they weren't happy with the results.

They thought they had found such an activist in Judge Carter. No doubt today is a setback for their wholly undemocratic and un-American crusade though I suspect they will soon try and spin things differently.

It's not really the Constitution that is involved, but rather a series of mostly 20th century interpretations of it that resulted in ever higher barriers to individuals seeking to have the Constution enforced.
