Actually you misunderstand the purpose of the Constitution. The constitution is not for limiting the People in any way. The constitution is a document meant to put limits on the Government and it's power over people. If you study the document and the origins of it and the supporting documents you will learn this and many other interesting tid bits.
[/QUOTE]Fabulous. Then you agree with me that the amending of the state constitutions was extremely out of line?
