As an indication of how far we hare strayed as a nation, here is an article making note that a publisher of the Constitution includes a "disclaimer". I would not believe it if I did not see it for myself.
The disclaimer: "This book is a product of its time and does not reflect the same values as it would if it were written today."
Simply unbelievable. Ms. Drummond is an American patriot for reminding Americans to actively engage and be informed.
AJM-
So you disagree with the amendments to the Constitution that were added to improve the original such as the abolition of slavery? Or the protection of the Constitution be extended to include the right to vote for all people without consideration of the color of their skin or of their gender?
Of course the Constitution was a product of its time and we as an intelligent people, capable of learning and adapting what we have learned are able to take advantage of the provisions in the Constitution for modifying it. The Founding Fathers themselves new that it was a work in progress.
BTW Michael Sanchez holds a degree in history from Fl Int. U. He is not a Constitutional scholar...
