The U.S. Constitution is overwhelmingly admired by American voters, but most Democrats believe our national charter is tainted by racism and sexism.
A new national telephone and online survey by Rasmussen Reports and the Heartland Institute finds that 82% of Likely U.S. voters have a favorable opinion of the Constitution, including 58% who have a Very Favorable view of the document, which was ratified in 1789. Just 14% view the Constitution unfavorably. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Despite their generally favorable opinion of the Constitution, however, 57% of Democratic voters agree it “is a document rooted in racism,” and 64% think the Constitution ”is a sexist document that gives men advantages over women.” Nearly half (49%) of Democrats believe the Constitution “should be mostly or completely rewritten.” The rest of the electorate overwhelmingly rejects all these statements.

Put them on rafts and make them paddle away.
They particularly don’t like Amendment II.
Or Amendment I. In fact, the Bill of Rights is desestable to them.
If they hate it so much why do they invoke it so much?
Racist? That was cured after the Civil War.
Sexist? The only thing in the document that affects sex is the amendment giving women a right to vote. The rest is up to the states.
Leave, they must.
Let em go to a place more in line with their progressive beliefs.
China, Venezuela are two that come to mind.
They would be sooooo much more happier and content in these socialist utopias.
Nearly half (49%) of Democrats believe the Constitution “should be mostly or completely rewritten.”
“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same...”
The fools , the Constitution keeps the Dem Elite from exterminating them, for now
The poll is silly. The article useless.
They were never asked what in the Constitution is racist or sexist.
Most of the respondents probably doesn’t even know what’s in the Constitution anyway.
Most democrats are racist and sexist. Their inability to face their own corruption makes them enemies of all that is good and holy. Democrats desperately need redemption. They have become worthless.
Your comment is rhetorical I know, but I have an answer for it.
Because they use our systems against us. Like those filthy slimeball locust aliens from the movie Independence Day.
I regard ‘tards and those dirty aliens with the same level of disgust.
It’s been the goal of the last two years and the re-education and wokeness to remove the Constitution.
The most anticommunist people I ever met were people from Latin American countries that had fallen under communism.
Many had family members killed by communists. I mean they really hate communists and would shoot them if they knew they wouldn’t get in trouble.
The reality is this.....it did obviously make provisions for slavery. And no, women couldn’t vote.
Now do something Leftists don’t do.
Look deeper. Look at the world in 1789. Slavery was the norm the world over. Not only women but very few people anywhere in the world could vote. Almost nowhere were god given rights recognized and required to be respected by government. THAT’s what you have to compare it to - Not your utopian ideals which cannot be found anywhere except in the fantasies of those at the universities.
Even Britain which was a constitutional monarchy only allowed a small minority to vote (not even all men could vote until into the 20th century). Even there ironclad rights the government may not violate were far fewer. Pretty much everywhere else there was autocracy, theocracy or anarchy. Individual rights? Forget about it.
Everything is racist or sexist to the warped leftards.
There are very few if any democrats left. They have all become card carrying Marxist communists who have literally forfeited their American citizenship.
They all need to leave America for the commie country that will take them. I bet China could use them to work the coal mines they build every day.
when it comes to being known by one’s enemies, being hated by the American Left is an honor
We should have picked our own cotton.
Confirming something we already knew.
Most DemoRats are morons.
