Like I said, the Supreme Court can only change our INTERPRETATION of the constitution. The constitution itself never changes.

The Declaration of Independence has no legal power or authority today

The Constitution is the Supreme Law of the United States.

The Declaration has as much authority as I say it does.

FedGov is an anachronism that needs euthanized.

So, hero, the 18th AMENDMENT (ie... change) is still effective?

You do realize that the Declaration of Independence had no legal power or authority when it was written?

It did have power, though.

It wound up being enforced in blood.

My rights and my states rights come from God, not the federal govt.
Where the rubber meets the road, I’ll side with God, and you can keep your interpreted version of the Constitution. :)
