Jefferson was a proponent of rewriting the Constitution every 20 years so that each generation was not enslaved by the notions of the previous.
the total fucking stupidity on display by the leftists in this arena is so damned astounding. it's completely unreal. good god, we're fucking gone as a nation with you idiots running around out here spewing your statist viewpoints.
Then set about changing it as t was meant to be changed
You still can't fund the quote I asked for
I accept your concession
The feeling is mutual brother.
Your side elected a clown .. and you're talking about stupidity. :0)
Liberals
Your lack of self-awareness is astounding. You have been completely upside down with court and SCOTUS rulings on every fucking issue. Yet, everyone else is wrong and you are correct. What a fucking blind idiot.
A 2A PUSSY to boot.
Most certainly not from your side of the fence.
Leftists / liberals .. same side of the fence.
you have succeeded in becoming an even bigger moron than desh. I truly did not think that was possible. congrats.
This is one topic that I completely agree with Ron Paul on while disagreeing with the president, that being the ever growing, tax draining monster called health care. The republicans didn't replace Obama care with a better plan because there is no better plan. Both parties have this belief in their heads that health care is the responsibility of the federal government because health care is a right.
It is not, and under the constitution, it was never meant to be. The monster in the room will continue to grow and it's hunger for tax dollars will never cease because health care is supposed to be a right of the people.
The president should spend his term in office finding ways to slow down the growth of the monster and save billions of dollars doing it such as making cuts to both medicare and Medicaid whenever possible.
I don't need it changed, moron. It's working fine as a living document. It's you cretinous originalists that scream "unconstitutional"!
Lazy fuck. Here are your quotes:
"Every constitution, then, and every law, naturally expires at the end of nineteen years. If it be enforced longer, it is an act of force, and not of right. It may be said, that the succeeding generation exercising, in fact, the power of repeal, this leaves them as free as if the constitution or law had been expressly limited to nineteen years only."
"Each generation is as independent as the one preceding, as that was of all which had gone before. It has then, like them, a right to choose for itself the form of government it believes most promotive of its own happiness; consequently, to accommodate to the circumstances in which it finds itself that received from its predecessors;"
"Forty years [after a] Constitution... was formed,... two-thirds of the adults then living are... dead. Have, then, the remaining third, even if they had the wish, the right to hold in obedience to their will and to laws heretofore made by them, the other two-thirds who with themselves compose the present mass of adults? If they have not, who has? The dead? But the dead have no rights. They are nothing, and nothing can not own something. Where there is no substance, there can be no accident [i.e., attribute]."
Checkmate, motherfucker.
In most of the civilized world healthcare is most certainly a right.
In fact the USA is the only country in the fucking world where it is legal for an insurance company to make a profit selling health insurance to human beings.
Almost all of humanity sees this as a moral issue, which indeed it is...
Sooooooo... FUCK YOU.
How cute. You posted a lot of words you don't understand.
He never said it was a document that would be changed willy nilly as you propose.
He said every 19 years the country should scrap it and start over.
I would be fine with that.
But that wasn't in the Constitution so therefore you are WRONG
CHECK MATE PUSSY
PS why are you afraid to debate me 1:1 in APP? Afraid of being exposed for the dumb fuck you are?
Don't worry you are in a long line of liberal pussies afraid to debate me 1:1
jesus fucking christ. how the hell do you morons live on a daily basis with such stupidity? what does the preamble state?
WE THE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!! WE THE PEOPLE had to vote and ratify it.
who the fuck do YOU think wrote the constitution?
Why specifically do YOU think YOU have a right to another's property against their will ?
Change the Constitution then. But as of now it is not an enumerated right.
Anything you think the gobblement can give to you they can take from you
Why specifically do YOU think YOU have a right to another's property against their will ?
Some of those so-called liberals would be mortified as some of the recent court rulings.
The founders were 'liberal' in the classical sense of the term. Modern liberals are socialists-leftists.
the constitution is so not political.
Ridiculous. Unfamiliar with the federalist papers? Political brochure for the federalists. In large measure they won the debate at the time.
Smarter than few thinks the constitution was delivered from Jeeeeeeesus...
