<sarcasm>Yeah, that pesky Constitution keeps getting in the way of real progress, doesn't it!</sarcasm>

You do realize this is a "conservative" forum, yes? Our form of government is *not* a 'democracy', my FRiend. It is a 'democratic republic'. There is a wealth of difference between the two. But, again, those who don't know history cannot help but to repeat it. I'll stand with the Constitution and the Founders' original intent. That is the very definition of "conservative".
