I'm not sure i'd change much from the US constitution.
Add in a Gay/Transgender equality amendment... put in term limits for congressmen.
Outside that changes I would like to see were mostly in thought process not acual hard law.
So perhaps a simple nonbinding statement simply stating that there is a stricter burden of proof for laws that restrict personal right.
So that say... if you want to pass Fiza you have to theoretically show via data what the warrantless wiretaps will do and why it will help. Or if you want to pass DOMA (illegal here but you get the idea) you need to present research that shows why AND be up for having that data be rebutted by experts if they wish.
EDIT: Actually on second thought i'd probably pass two genetic engineering laws. One tht you can't copyright living things. Cause well... duh. That a farmer can't plant seeds from a plant he's bout is ridiculious and should eaisly violate the first sale doctrine. I feel like this shouldn't even be needed yet somehow it is.
Two, protect the right to genetic engineering.
Yeah, not a genetic engineering ban but an actual right TO genetically engineer. Screw kids being born with genetic diseases because people are afraid the rich will make themselves super babies.
-So the world might have a bunch of Stephen Hawkings in Lebron James' body.... that's a bad thing? I think whatever progress the influx of having a hundred fold the amount of geniuses far outweighs the fact that someone who could of been smart enough to be a scientist no longer is.
