Wrong. Ultimately, it is we the people that decide.

Poorly reasoned response. Are you saying that the USA is a Democracy? Are you saying that the majority decides what's constitutional and what isn't? And how's that been working for you lately with 0-care and 0 pushing gun control. After all "we the people" elected him. Or at least a scant majority did. What about the rights of the other 49% if 51% of "we the people" decide that it's OK to have the police conduct warrantless searches as in Boston? What if 51% decide that those nasty looking black rifles shoud be restricted to jackbooted sturmabteilung men? What if 51% "we the people" decide that they don't want to work and should be supported by the other 49% - Oh wait, that's already happening.

"We the people" aren't doing a great job of it so far

You’re too late. Take a gander at the people that voted the 16th and 17th Amendments. If we the people don’t understand our purpose and our Constitution, neither will our judges.
