If you wish to give the 2nd Amend. the unrepealable status of of, say, each State's equal suffrage in the Senate, you would have to spell it out in a further amendment, since such a limitation does not now exist.
It does no good, as Elihu Root found out, to pretend that it does.
I fail to see how our Constitution is worth anything if our unalienable rights can be 'alienated away' by the Amendment process.
It does no good, as you will find out, to pretend that it does.
By the way, Root 'pretended' nothing. He clearly stated a fact:
"-- You will have declared that two thirds of a quorum of each House of the Congress, plus a majority of a quorum of each of the two Houses of the Legislatures of three fourths of the States, may enact any legislation they please without any reference to the limitations of the Constitution, including the Bill of Rights itself. --"
"-- You will have declared that two thirds of a quorum of each House of the Congress, plus a majority of a quorum of each of the two Houses of the Legislatures of three fourths of the States, may enact any legislation they please without any reference to the limitations of the Constitution, including the Bill of Rights itself. --"
That is a fact, all right. It is also what Article V has provided since the Constitution was ratified, nothing new.
What was Root's complaint again? I took it to be the quorum business, since Root mentioned it and Article V does not contain the word, but discovered that the Bill of Rights was also ratified by quorums. The only thing left is the pretense that an amendment cannot be repealed. Neither you nor your quotations from Root have supported that novel claim. Do you have anything else?
