What part of the Constitution don't they understand, which provides, "No person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law," and applied to all states by the 14th. Amendment. The People of America have never authorized their elected servants to destroy their Bill of Rights. |

Stripeseven -
It's not that they don't understand it, they reject it in toto.
See: Woodrow Wilson
Therein is revealed the core principles of the progressive movement.
THEY. REJECT. THE. CONSTITUTION.
And the entire philosophy of inalienable individual rights, limited, delegated government powers, separation of powers, and federalism.
The sooner people realize that (and exactly what that means to their liberty), the better the chances of saving this republic. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
[The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
