I’m new to the constitutionalism thing I stand by my rights as a natural born citizen of the United States and the constitution I would like to know more on the topic if there is anything I should know some one of my fellow patriots please comment or direct message me info
Introduced: Sponsor: Sen. John Cornyn [R-TX]
This bill was referred to the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation which will consider it before sending it to the Senate floor for consideration.
1 cosponsor is on that committee.
Certain things to remember:
-
The Bill of Rights only protected people from the federal government, state governments could do whatever.
-
States were allowed to restrict voting as they chose.
-
The President and Senate were chosen via methods selected by state legislatures, not by general election.
"The Civil Rights of none shall be abridged on account of religious beliefs or worship, nor shall any national religion be established, nor shall the FULL and EQUAL rights of CONSCIENCE be in any manner, or in any pretext, INFRINGED" The author of the Bill of Rights- James Madison ~1789
I think that for what our nation was when the original Constitution and Bill of Rights were drawn up, it's fine but now that our nation is quite a bit larger, much more technologically advanced, and we now face a new set of problems; we need a new unifying document that addresses our most important issues.
I would imagine that the 2nd and 3rd Amendments would be revised, and new Amendments would have to be added for the sake of Internet laws and regulation. The Founding Fathers were smart men, no doubt about it, but I don't think that any set of laws created almost 250 years ago could adequately cover all our bases in the 21st century. I know that there have since been amendments to the Constitution but I don't think that the government moves fast enough to keep changing things to an old document. I think that it makes more sense to take what works in the original and use that to draw up some sort of modern laws to govern our modern world. Change my View.
edit: I was wrong. I awarded one delta to /u/inedible_strawberry but you guys all made me feel very wrong and I thank you for that. This was, in fact, an incredibly ill-thought out plan.
