The Constitution does not "grant" any rights, period. All it does is acknowledge that Americans already have rights, some of which it lists and some of which it doesn't. The Attorney General really ought to know that. hmm... what is that thing we call the "Bill of Rights"? I thought that was part of the Constitution.

Are you under the impression that the Bill of Rights grants rights?
