I think most citizens believe it needs tweeking, not a complete overhaul replaced by an 18th century "strict constitutional law" approach.
Ok, is it that people are too stupid to realize that the constitution is 'the law of the land', or is it that they just don't care anymore because it's too hard to live by?

Those that don't like the way the constitution is, know how to amend the damn thing, so why torture and render it meaningless?
