it’s about how Americans cite it like it’s the Bible.
It is.
Our laws aren’t really organized like European countries. Every single law we have can be traced back to the Constitution. All legal authority for all government derives from it. That is literally how our legal system is designed. We don’t have to use some vague “I have rights” thing, we can go straight to the source.
No one can argue with the Constitution. If we amend the Constitution to say we must all carry rubber duckies on Tuesdays, then everyone will carry a rubber duckie on Tuesdays. It is the supreme law of the land. If the constitution says something and you don’t like it, you have to convince the population to amend it.
