The point is, our Constitution is so brilliant, in part, because of its ability to adapt when necessary to the times in order to remain just and serve the people. It can legally adapt by amendment or judicial interpretation. Our judicial system is responsible for a woman's right to decide whether or not she remains pregnant. Our judicial system is responsible for the desegregation of schools.=
