Update on Part D

Is the Constitution an elaborate sham - a fake-out - a big founding fathers PSYYYCH!? Identify 2-3 aspects of the Constitution and Amendments that could support this argument.

I wouldn't necessarily say that the constitution as a whole is a sham but parts of it are very contradicting. I feel like the Constitution was made so there would be order and regulations but i feel that there are many that are not being followed here in the United States. The constitution is official but people don't take it seriously. Such as amendment 1, and full faith and credit. The first amendment states freedom of speech and religion but many people cant talk about their religion in the workplace or school because it is just not allowed. Full faith and credit explains how there should be no discrimination against anything even same sex partners but why is gay marriage banned in many states. There are many things that can be changed or revised of the Constitution but for what stands now that is a basic outline of what should be done to enhance society and the United States.

What is the general tendency of the Constitution and Amendments in your view - general and steady expansion of human freedom and decency?

I general tendency of the Constitution and the amendments in my view is just a bunch of laws and rules that are trying to work out for the government and the citizens as well. For example many amendments don't give citizens a lot of rights but amendment 14 gives citizens the right to abortion and get marriage. Even thought there are many states that don't allow gay marriage, gay couples do still have choices. They are able to go to another state and get married. It amazes me how throughout the whole reading of the Constitution and the amendments this is the only amendment that caught my eye or that I had a lot of say for. Regardless of people not agreeing with the cdonstion there are many aspects of it that seems somewhat right and that should still hold true.
