“The power already did flow from the bottom up.”

Yes, and it doesn’t stop flowing from there just because we ratified a Constitution. The power always belongs to the people, and they can revoke it any time it pleases them.

“You don’t get to arbitrarily destroy that whenever you want.”

One set of citizens revoking their consent does not “destroy” whatever government the rest of the citizens still wish to be a part of. Your argument is a lame attempt to strip us all of our God-given rights. You basically only agree that we had that right to determine our own form of government one single point in history, and after we used it, we lost it forever.

Basically, you’re arguing that a minority can tyrannize the majority on a whim.
