The US Constitution (not the ship)

~~savage560~~ · October 4th, 2015, 11:23 PM

This great piece of laws/rights was written over 200 hundred years ago, & many of our amendments to the constitution are very old & dated too.Do some think it could be updated to change to the demands of a modern society, of changing conditions & customs, etc.?

The Constitution has provisions written in to it for amending and changing it as the country decides is necessary. The fact that we haven't done so recently would seem to indicate that most people don't feel it is necessary at this time.

No, the only bears here are in zoo's or a circus maybe. But if I could, I'd eat it's arms

Oh, and to keep it on topic, I'd change that stupid law where the POTUS must have been born on US soil. Is that even in the constitution

I only added that too keep it on topic, because I really don't care

First, you need the right to arm bears.

Might be a pretty reasonable idea.

I don't see anything in the US Constitution that is outdated or that needs to be changed. That's the beauty of the document. It was written in a brilliantly abstract fashion so that would be relevant as society and culture changed
