Exactly. People should read the constitution, its short and clear (and written by people who didn't graduate from Ivy league schools.) It only takes a genius to argue that the constitution doesn't mean what is clearly written.
Add a corpus of binding decisions construing that constitution in a mind-boggling array of fact patterns stretching over the last couple of hundred years and it's not so simple.

If you're trying to say that lawyers have fornicated up the constitution, I won't disagree. However, I don't think that's a good thing.
