Our Constitution is not broken.

I disagree, though only slightly — one aspect in which it is broken is that it does not punish those federal agents (officers, 'agents', employees, representatives, senators, justice, judges, etc) that break the Constitution. (i.e. what happened when it came to light that the NSA was routinely violating the Fourth Amendment? Nothing.) Another area in which it is flawed is that there is no limit on taxation (though the second amendment should, technically, limit the unamended Constitution's taxation power of the Congress). — Plus it will take an Amendment to get rid of Wickard and all the crap that use it as precedent.

I agree with you with respect to a means of immediate recourse to fire any politician who brakes their oath of office or abuses their power of authority. As well, this includes ALL Judges and any judge who tries to legislate from the bench against the KNOWN and UNDISPUTED will of the people. No one judge should ever be allowed to interpret the law when it involves Constitutional law. If I’m not mistaken, our Constitution did not allow for all the lucrative perks and pensions afforded to today’s DC politicians. It is that kind of political self serving crap amendments that have corrupted our Constitution’s original intent.
