How about, instead of trying to right an Amendment to ennumerate all of our Rights, we just NOT give the power to legislate in that area to our Government? A lot easier don't you think? At least as long as we can keep our legislators on the up-and-up.

The Constitution already enumerates the powers of the Federal Government, and prohibits it from infringing on citizens rights(e.g. 2nd Admd, gun rights), see how much good it has done.

This 'living document' nonsense will just let it grow beyond any new limits we try to impose. It has passed the point where the government recognizes the citizens as the sovereign, that is the problem.
