What do you think of the Constitution?...
...I don't want to start a debate on it, only do a poll-substitute for the crass reason that I haven't donated to DU and am not going to.

So, anyway...

a) The constitution is a great document that must never be changed or amended
b) The constitution is a pretty good document that need not be changed other than occasional amendments
c) The constitution is based on good principles but still needs some revisions on important issues
d) The constitution is in a pretty bad shape and needs several major changes
e) The constitution is outdated and requiers a complete overhaul

I'm the first vote for e). Where do you stand?

9. Seeing as in Article V, it provides for its own amendment,
I'd say it's a brilliantly written document.

10. It is B
Now if only we could
1) Rescind all the unconstitutional laws, mostly doing with search and seizure, privacy, etc.
2) Force this administration to adhere to the Constitution.
