It's re-written constantly. Here's how it works; decide what you want to do, or not do in some cases, then twist the Constitution so that it appears to support your actions and claim you're just following the law.

Yes, the leftists, including the leftist women on the Supreme Court have been doing that for years. Non-Christians and atheists have been distorting the Bible to fit in with their sin nature for many centuries. Look at Pete Buttigege, who distorts scripture to defend his homosexual lifestyle or Nancy Peeloosli and Hitlery Clinton who support infanticide (murder) though claiming they are Christians?? Just 2 examples.

The Government is in violation of Article One; Section 7. The powers are not divided correctly. They are the Constitutional Spheres that George Washington spoke about.
The Framers did make a mistake. They thought Voting would work. It is a decision making process. Choosing a Representative is a choice. It requires a different mechanism. All this bickering is because we vote.

It doesn't need to be rewritten but some new amendments are definitely due, especially in presidential privileges, presidential pardoning, everywhere we have recently witnessed Trump's overreach of power, obstruction of testimonials come to mind. Or to have the president's position be suspended until the cloud is removed or validated where he is then permanently removed without any pardon for his actions.
One need not look too far into the past to see how that fairyboy, Bathhouse Barry Ovommit was guilty of overreach, destruction of our Constitutional laws and downright subversiveness. You still can't get over Hitlery Rotten Clinton's loss to Trump!!

Nicely put.
I, too, believe Option 2 would be more desirable in the cases of many a leftie.

With these kind of posts, factnotfiction demonstrates his ignorance of history. One of the major irritants to the colonists was the quartering of British soldiers in their homes without even the courtesy of consultation.
An FDR administration officer once advocated that any power not so specifically forbidden was permitted. Such is how progressive government goes.

It MIGHT be a good idea, but there's a problem. The writers of the original constitution had the best interests of the country in mind. Today's politicians will always choose to serve their own interests ahead of country every time.

The American Constitution presupposed the universality of the "Rule of Law." This means that it is a document reflecting the essence of "Republic behavior" before our Creator. It is not a document to be changed by a "changing culture." it supersedes any culture and provides a standard of thought where all men and women can survive in a civilized society where justice is blind and to be applied to all economic classes of people.
You need to understand the difference between "form and substance." When you understand this you will not make such ignorant statements.

Yeah, those Federalist Papers that go deeply into the reasons, purposes, and intent of the founders in framing our constitution are extraordinarily "nebulous". Takes a friggin genius to figure them out.
I'm sure someone of your low IQ and limited education doesn't know this, but the Constitution of the United States belongs to We the People, it is not the property of the government.

The Founders based our Constitution on Natural Law and the nature of people. Nowhere is there a mention of technology, specific weapons, air travel, fossil fuels, etc. Only the nature of man is considered. Any statement about what the Founders could or could not predict about the future is not relevant in any form or fashion.
The simple truth is the nature of man has not changed. Nor will it.

The whole idea of the constitution is to stay the proven course of fairness and longevity for the Republic.
The same agitators who want to change the constitution, are the same people who claim that the bible is outdated.
