I feel no need to uphold your constitution, therefore any understanding of its meaning wouldn't change my opinion.

And this is why we will never agree on anything. I am one who wants rules that government officials are elected to uphold. You want a government where the elected officials make the rules.

Freedom isn't for everyone.

Rath is a Kiwi (like you're soon to be), which is why he doesn't care about the governing document of a foreign nation

 

And you must remember that your view on the Constitution was not the reason the Constitution was put into place in the first place. We have a Federal Constitution so that we can have effective central federal government. We have a Bill of Rights to limit government, but the Constitution is there to empower it (as the Federalist party contended long ago)
