[QUOTE="brett636, post: 876258, member: 249"] Ok, well I see you have a very poor grasp of the politics of the day to understand that if those compromises were not made this country would not exist. As wrong as it was slavery was just as mainstream then as owning an apple product is today. Changing the minds of the entire country could not be done overnight with a single document at a point in our country's history when it was most vulnerable to disintegration. As i pointed out it was the seeds planted into the Constitution that helped to eventually end slavery, but the founding fathers didn't have to plant them and we should thank god their personal convictions compelled them too anyway. I'm also troubled by this idea that the Constitution can be considered "outdated". Tell me at what point is freedom of speech, religion, and assembly considered outdated? How about being secure in your person, property, and effects? What about the right to bear arms? I see no point in the future that these can be considered "outdated" ideals, and the very politicians that would try to sell you such a bill of goods is only doing so to increase their own power over you and everyone you know. There are political figures today who's main purpose is to circumvent the god given rights spelled out in the Constitution so that they can become more powerful, more wealthy, and more elite than they are now. Our founding fathers knew this would be true and this is why the Constitution is written as it is so that tyranny has a much harder time finding a foothold in this nation, and by your posts my guess is you support the very politicians who wish to unleash such tyranny on the people. Do not allow yourself to be so foolish and embrace individual rights and freedom as the foundation of this country or accept the bondage your government masters will hand you as the last vestibule of the American dream disappears from sight.
