Al68 said:Nonsense. And too obvious to argue about. Have you ever read the constitution?No, they can't. The most congress can do is recommend amendments to the states. Then the states decide whether to grant congress more power or not.And that's why you think it's just fine for congress to pass any law they like, constitutional or not?I am one of the very few on this forum that considers it important what the constitution says (in its entirety) instead of what I would like it to say.Nonsense, I already addressed this. It's a charter by definition and obviously so to anyone who has ever read it and knows what the word charter means.
I am not arguing. And you already said that you don't believe in the Constitution. So not sure what point you are trying to make.
And no it is not a charter. Simple as that. I know the group that makes that argument because it is the key to their premise. But it is wrong. The US Constitution is not a charter. And that angle has been shot down in court.
Congress has to pass any amendment. Another key point. Which I know does not fit into that same group's agenda. The states simply do not pass amendments. Congress has to originate it, pass it with a that 2/3rds. And then the states have to ratify it. States cannot Amend the Constitution without congress. that is what you imply, and it is wrong.
