i would imagine that the parts which are problematic are the parts you disagree with politically and the parts that aren't are those which you do not disagree with politically.

normally I would call out someone for thinking that i'm simply an ideologue and wish to pick and choose only parts of the constitution that I agree with, but in this case it wouldn't matter. you don't like conservatives nor libertarians and you especially dislike conservative libertarians. You probably wouldn't accept my premise that I don't pick and choose parts of the constitution that only I like, I pick and choose it all as it pertains to limited powers of the government. I know that's counter to your philosophy.
and yes, the entire american legal system, as well as political system is problematic precisely because it has not only exceeded the limits of the constitution, but practically ignores almost all of it.
