The Constitution is a fairly short document, and is not beyond the comprehension of any educated person. The assumption that many make is that it is too complicated for any but legal experts (read lawyers) to interpret. These people are then willing to accept the most ridiculous and improbable pronouncements from supposed “experts,” known as the members of the Supreme Court.

As we have seen in the past, the Supremes have political agendas and will impose these agendas on the people if they are allowed to get away with it.

The answer to your question is: the final arbiters of the Constitution, as well as every law, are the people. It is the Supreme Court, not just the legislature that reads the election returns.

How does that account for the many educated people that disagree on what it means?
