Welcome to the new America, where the job of interpreting the constitution requires taking into account everything we have "learned" over the last 200 years.

Problem is, what we really are doing, is applying everything he have forgot over the last 200 years.

People are the same as they have been for 10's of thousands of years. We wrote that document just a few hundred years ago, to protect ourselves from people who think like this.

This mindset, is what's going to make this country fail. Not the other way around.

 

Institutions that do not change will perish, no matter how solid the foundation. The constitution has survived longer as a willow than it would have as petrified wood.

So change the constitution. Deeming it unimportant because it's to hard to change, will be what causes this country to perish.
