        Of course it is. 14th amendment has been twisted to meet one’s needs as well.

            That’s my point exactly. Conservatives have manipulated the constitution to match their needs. Have they not?

              Everyone attempts that. We need to stop letting them get away with it, not do away with the concept of the Constitution.

                Not sure where I said the constitution should be ignored. Quite the opposite. It should be followed but hasn’t been followed since the beginning with the forefathers. I said it’s a “good goal”. I guess we are both arguing the same point on the same side.

                  Probably. I was addressing the general conversations in this thread more than you specifically.
