- NO! A thousand times, no! If the government arbitrarily changes or reinterprets the Constitution, it has unilaterally changed its contract with the people.
- But don't changing times require an evolving system?
- The constitution itself allows for changes approved by the people through the amendment process. - The courts must not be allowed to reinterpret the Constitution.
- Those who argue for a "Living" Constitution actually offer a Dead Constitution for it offers no limits to government.
- "Our peculiar security is the possession of a written constitution. Let us not make it a blank paper by construction." - Thomas Jefferson
