they are the result of criminal activity. I was born from legal citizens as were my parents and so on who were born from American citizens not commiting crimes. Liberals have already ignored the Constitution.(with the support of non-constructionists) Yet they mock people that want to actually have a Constitutional form of government and say "change it".

I think we have come a long way as a society since a group of white men with wigs, false teeth and bad breath had the ONLY say in the way the country was run. Is it fair to say that maybe, just maybe, the constitution might be a bit...outdated in some spots. Maybe?

Although....while I'm generally in favor of open borders, I admit that if someone proposed to only allow agnostics and atheists into the country and deport ALL of the religious people (citizens and non-citizens alike) I'd almost be tempted to support it.

 They have committed no crime, and had nothing to do with their parents decisions to commit illegal acts. Hard to take rights away from a certain group of people based upon what their relatives have done. Multiple Supreme Courts have looked at the Civil Rights Act (post Civil War) and the 14th Amendment that solidified it many times. Hispanics are far from the first group to be targeted by others in this respect. Quote:
 As with the Bible, people of all political persuasions tend to quote the parts they like, and ignore the parts they don't.

On top of all our other problems - just what we need - a Godless country.
However, It sure would take care of the Mexican immigration problem.

Subject: NEW PREAMBLE TO THE CONSTITUTION We the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid more riots, keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior, and secure the blessings of a debt-free liberty to ourselves and our great-great- great-grandchildren, hereby try one more time to ordain and establish some common sense guidelines for the terminally whiny,guilt ridden, and delusional. We hold these truths to be self evident: that a whole lot of people are confused by the Bill of Rights and are so dim they require a Bill of NON-Rights. ARTICLE I: You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV, or any other form of wealth. More power to you if you can legally acquire them, but no one is guaranteeing anything. ARTICLE II: You do not have the right to never be offended. This country is based on freedom, and that means freedom for everyone -- not just you! You may leave the room, turn the channel, express a different opinion, etc.; but the world is full of idiots, and probably always will be. ARTICLE III: You do not have the right to be free from harm. If you stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful; do not expect the tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives independently wealthy. ARTICLE IV: You do not have the right to free food and housing. Americans are the most charitable people to be found, and will gladly help anyone in need, but we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generation after generation of couch potatoes who achieve nothing more than the creation of another generation of professional couch potatoes. Get an education and go to work. ...don't expect everyone else to take care of you! ARTICLE V: You do not have the right to free health care. That would be nice, but from the looks of public housing, we're just not interested in public health care. ARTICLE VI: You do not have the right to physically harm other people. If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest of us want to see you fry in the electric chair. ARTICLE VII: You do not have the right to the possessions of others. If you rob, cheat, or coerce away the goods or services of other citizens, don't be surprised if the rest of us get together and lock you away in a place where you still won't have the right to a big screen color TV or a life of leisure. ARTICLE VIII: You do not have the right to a job. All of us sure want you to have a job, and will gladly help you along in hard times, but we expect you to take advantage of the opportunities of education and vocational training laid before you to make yourself useful. ARTICLE IX: You do not have the right to happiness. Being an American means that you have the right to PURSUE happiness, which by the way, is a lot easier if you are unencumbered by an over abundance of idiotic laws created by those of you who were confused by the Bill of Rights. ARTICLE X: _This is an English speaking country. We don't care where you are from, English is our language. Learn it or go back to wherever you came from! (Lastly....) ARTICLE XI: You do not have the right to change our country's history or heritage. This country was founded on the belief in one true God. And yet, you are given the freedom to believe in any religion, any faith, or no faith at all; with no fear of persecution _The phrase IN GOD WE TRUST is part of our heritage and history, and if you are uncomfortable with it, TOUGH!

"What influence, in fact, have ecclesiastical establishments had on society? In some instances they have been seen to erect a spiritual tyranny on the ruins of the civil authority; on many instances they have been seen upholding the thrones of political tyranny; in no instance have they been the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wish to subvert the public liberty may have found an established clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate it, needs them not." ~james madison "In every country and every age, the priest has been hostile to liberty. He is always in alliance with the despot ... they have perverted the purest religion ever preached to man into mystery and jargon, unintelligible to all mankind, and therefore the safer engine for their purpose." ~thomas jefferson "Religious controversies are always productive of more acrimony and irreconcilable hatreds than those which spring from any other cause. Of all the animosities which have existed among mankind, those which are caused by the difference of sentiments in religion appear to be the most inveterate and distressing, and ought most to be depreciated. I was in hopes that the enlightened and liberal policy, which has marked the present age, would at least have reconciled Christians of every denomination so far that we should never again see the religious disputes carried to such a pitch as to endanger the peace of society."~ george washington Lighthouses are more helpful than churches." ~ben franklin "The way to see by faith is to shut the eye of reason." -in Poor Richard's Almanac "Of all the tyrannies that affect mankind, tyranny in religion is the worst." ~thomans paine I have generally been denominated a Deist, the reality of which I never disputed, being conscious I am no Christian, except mere infant baptism makes me one; and as to being a Deist, I know not strictly speaking, whether I am one or not." preface, Reason the Only Oracle of Man ~ ethan allen many of our founding fathers were deists, not christians.

Most of the Electoral College technically does not have to follow what the states vote for!!! It's only tradition that they do. If they really felt someone was going to ruin this country, they'd vote for whoever they want.
