“Yes I want the constitution to be used... There are many ways it can be.”

I’m no history expert, but I think FDR found many of his New Deal policies found “illegal” by the Supreme Court near the end. And I believe that the senate or house (or both?) switched to Republican hands and they started to vote against his New Deal policies. And some historians cite THOSE changes with getting us out of the Depression, and not the often cited World War II.

And we have already seen how the Supreme Court has ruled against obama on numerous recent topics.

FDR, Barry and others all looked at the Constitution and said “There are many ways it can be used.”

Thus the problem. Had people in and out of office stopped pretending it says things it does not and ignoring/redefining what it does, we would have America to this day.
