Get rid of the Constitution? OK no 1st Amendment for you so STFU!
the Constitution was written to be the standard for a non-tyrannical limited government. Just because it was not perfect at the beginning is not a rational reason for rejecting it now. It has been and still can be changed if enough people want it.
Because F*** YOU, that's why.
The Constitution probably saved her ass a few times from the Democrats
Go "back" to Africa, Candace. Live the "Black" way ...
It’s extraordinary, once again, to read something this crazy and devoid of reality and try to fathom that the person who wrote it actually thought it made sense.
It does not matter that many were slaveowners.
It does not matter that all of them were White.
It does not matter that all of them were Male.
It does not matter that it was written long ago...and that the writers and ratifiers of it are long dead.
It remains current law. If you want to change it there is an amending process. Just persuade enough of your fellow citizens as to the rightness of your cause that you can get an amendment passed by each house of Congress by a 2/3rds supermajority and then 3/4 of the states ratify it. Then you can have whatever changes you want. Its as simple as that.
Civilization was created by slave owners. There aren’t any now.
What of it?
Why is this POS even here? If you have a problem with our Constitution, leave. I promise that we will not mind at all.
The US Constitution is the charter of our nation. No Constitution, no nation.
Yang for the Ying:
The Left is Literally Dominated by Progressives: Why are Americans so Opposed to them Usurping the US Constitution?
Even her characterization of facts are false. It is sad that someone this ignorant is spreading opinion amongst her ...community.
SCOTUS didn’t eviscerate right to abortion. They just got out of the judicial rights-creation business, and returned this issue to the democratic process.
SCOTUS did not change Miranda requirements. They said no to felons suing for damages because they weren’t Mirandized. The effects of not Mirandizing suspects remain exactly as they were.
SCOTUS ruled that a religious person could pray and others could voluntarily join in after an athletic event.
Preventing them from voluntarily praying on their own time clearly infringes the free exercise of religion.
Don’t know anything about the Border Patrol ruling, but the BP does not exactly have the upper hand on illegal immigration.
The Constitution was drafted in great part by Gouverneur Morris, an opponent of slavery, who saw it as contradictory to the whole purpose of the Constitution and the new USA. Slavery entered the Constitution as a compromise to get South Carolina to join the union — the idea that most of the delegates to the Constitutional Convention were pro-slavery is nonsense.
Their MO is to always change the rules when they lose the game. The sibling that throws the board and game pieces screaming It’s not fair!!
So only perfect people get to write a Constitution ir set up a government? We’ll never have one.
Meanwhile, that constitution written by some people who were slaveholders (and some were not) has produced a country that sucks so much that literally millions of people come here every year and millions more want to come here. If this idiot thinks the country is so bad because some of the people who wrote our constitution nearly 240 years ago were slaveholders, she is free to GTFO. Meanwhile, we are going to keep our constitution, ALL of it. Especially including the 2nd Amendment.
Funny how these people who bitch the most about the Constitution live in the same country that allows them to bitch about the Constitution.
So what? These were great, if flawed men (like all men) that helped create the greatest government and country the world has even known.
Of course coming from the Root who idolizes someone like G Floyd I would expect nothing less.
An intentionally misleading association. The writer is attempting to discredit the Constitution. Obviously the Constitution is in the way of something he/she/it/they want to do to us.
By their logic, gee, their ancestors no-doubt owned slaves, why should anyone listen to what they have to say? They were obviously raised and influenced by a long line of racists.
See how that works? You can falsely (or maybe not in their case, who knows?) impugn anyone's integrity if you have non yourself.
Stopped reading right there. Knew the rest was a lie.
"Journalist" needs to be called out as to where exactly it says in the Constitution a woman has a right to an abortion.
He won't, of course because: The Root.
It's a clean way to get rid of the federal government.
The trick would be to bar the people in it, from ever having a position of control or authority.
The constitution could only be ratified with support of slave owners (mostly in the southernmost colonies ((Mason Dixon line)) where slave labor was pervasive and common)
There would be no country if deference was not paid to this large constituency.
Thus, the framers created the Bill of Rights, and the constitutional means to eventually amend the constitution and end slavery. Candice’s “slave owners” wanted it gone from the start.
Further, southern slave states wanted census credit and dominant representation in congress with inclusion of slaves in the census. Northern states protested , knowing southern slave owners and large populations would call all the shots, so that’s where the “3/5th” of a person meme originated. Slave owners were allowed 3/5ths of slaves to be included in census diluting southern influence.
No Constitution for you, Candace.
