I wouldn't want this because it could be warped in all sorts of ways by activist judges who see rights where they don't exist and ignore rights that are distinctly spelled out already.

I appreciate the thought behind it but I think a constitutional amendment is no antidote for strong leadership.

The Constitution doesn't tell us what our rights are, it spells out what the US Government can do.

i was with you till that last two words; “strong leadership” is exactly what the Founders feared. The People were never meant to be led by government; only protected from foreign invaders.
