Then why do we have all these problems? The Constitution has not protected us from the current resident or his minions.
Because so called conservatives keep electing moderates and liberals because winning is more important than winning with people worth voting for that adhere to the Constitution. If you voted for Romney for example and still defend that idiocy of ‘lesser evil’, you would be part and parcel of why we are in this mess and why we don’t get constitutional people in office.
