Read me. Please.

No president can be the end of Me if the People stand strong and use Me.

I may be 236 years old, but I’ve got plenty of fight in me.

Read me. Believe in me. Use me.

Article 1, Section 9:

“No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States”

America has no king. It is quite literally unconstitutional for the White House to post this:

Sounds like a good topic for getting back into posting.

The Separation of Powers is a core aspect of the Constitution. Congress does not serve at the pleasure of the President. Nor does the President serve Congress. They both are meant to serve the People.

For those wondering why President Biden doesn’t make the Equal Rights Amendment part of the Constitution, please read this article. I think the ERA would be a great addition to my text, but Biden can’t do it.

Your sadness about this is quite understandable.

Correct.
And it has only been done once.

The 14th amendment isn’t going anywhere.

And I doubt that the courts will side with Trump, regardless of the low opinion that many in America currently have of the Judiciary.

The 14th is clear and has been repeatedly upheld.

Imagine being 236 years old and worried about your continued existence.

My 14th Amendment is pretty clear on the issue.

If you are born here you are a citizen.

Anyone arguing otherwise should probably read me.

Actually, everyone should read me.

The “good Behaviour” clause should actually make it fairly easy to remove judges.

In reality, a full impeachment shouldn’t even be necessary. Congress should have the power to establish a definition of “good Behaviour” and a process for subsequent removal for violation.

Article III, Section 1: “The
Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold
their Offices during good Behaviour,”

While not explicitly saying that judges serve “for life”, it would definitely be a huge legal fight for Congress to attempt to impose term limits absent an amendment.

this new Constitution.

It did not need to be a lengthy indictment of the failures of the Articles of Confederation. But a simple statement of what was to become of a new government going forward.

The Preamble was written by Mr. Gouverneur Morris (yes, that’s his actual name) of New York.
There was little discussion about the Preamble by the Constitutional Convention and the final text was accepted without dispute.

The Preamble was designed to make it clear to everyone why America needed

The Preamble to the Constitution of the United States.

What is a preamble?

To put it in modern terms, it’s a purpose statement.

It explains why the following was written. It’s a simple concept. Yet it has profound implications.

Today we will begin a journey through the entire text of me, the Constitution of the United States.

Probably won’t be a post every day, but fairly often.
Some of this will be interesting, some boring, and some might be enlightening.

I wonder how many elected officials could pass a high school level test on my contents.

Starting Monday we are going to go through my entire text.
Some of it will be interesting, some will be boring, but all of it is worth knowing.

There is no mechanism for the ERA to become part of the Constitution.

Any effort by President Biden to make it so would be immediately dismissed by a federal court.

The ERA contained a “ratify by” date. There’s nothing illegal about that. The 18th, 20th, 21st, & 22nd Amendments were all ratified with similar provisions. So there is Constitutional precedent.

This is correct.

While the ERA would be an excellent addition to my text, it failed to be ratified in the set timeframe.

It would (and should!!!) need to go through the Amendment process again to become part of the Constitution.

No mention of billionaires in my text.

Or millionaires.

Or Republicans.

Or Democrats.

Unfortunately, the ERA has not been legally ratified.
The text of the ERA stipulated that it must be ratified within 7 years. By March 22, 1979 only 35 states had ratified the ERA.
Time ran out at that point. The Amendment would need to be passed by Congress again for consideration.

I’m not so easy to replace.
I may just be ink on parchment, but I have a lot of people who have sworn an oath to protect, preserve, and defend me.

Unfortunately I (your US Constitution) do not have a mechanism for such a process.

You could try an impeachment, but that has never successfully removed a President from office in my 276 years of service.

Image of the text of the Preamble of the US Constitution. It reads: We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Did you have to memorize these words in school?
Do you still remember them?
Do they hold any meaning to you?

A free people will always desire to maintain their freedom. I applaud the people of South Korea for standing up for their democracy.

It all started with three words. Three words that should be used to guide everything that comes afterwards.
