The initial principles of constitution was well thought out and it makes sense but the implementation of the same is what has not lived the test of time. In this regard therefore knowing the historical measure is good but the critical factor is to continuously improve on the vital principle of humanity being atheist center of democracy. In the current scenario the governor’s are continuously violating the very center of the principal of democracy as improved in line with the the Massachusetts revolution. When an air plane is not intouch with the tower it loses its compass and eventually it will crush. Similarly a people who loose their moral compass of governance are more likely to end up have a backlash from the very people who brought them in office.

In addition going back from the Constitution of the USA, I see a violation and abuse of authority which the people were promised and as espoused by the founding fathers and the civil rights revolution. I am of the view that it is important that we go back to the roots and work on the very principles that are being continuously violated if the rights and liberties of the people must be maintained and the peace of the state. National liberties to be maintained. America being the flag carrier of Democracy as an hybrid system with the roots of the British. Romas and Greeks should put humanity first as the center of the governed and not the governors being at the center of the governed. The principles od democracy are good if the players can live according to its espoused theories and principles. Otherwise this is good piece of information. 👍

What are Federalists? And, why did their society appoint six far-right-wing Supreme Court Justice's? From a Layman who is trying to understand our country's laws.
