That Constitution is not fool proof , that is why the GOP CORPORATIST , had ridded due procress, and have used the separation of powers of states to recognize the Constitution to guarantee the rights of the individual and protect them,
bush sr did this bullshit...

then they are using fear , racism, hate and teaching Martyrdom/Anarchy as the solution decoy
[IF] there is anything Flawed , is the part to where , it can no longer function to prevent GOP CORPORATISM to decide what rights can be exercised, and what is a free society and to whom...
it shall have no basis of having double standards or giving some rights and not others.
it shall preserve democracy..
but yes, we all know Democracy and our Laws are based on Christianity , as long as Church cannot indoctrinate political ideals or radicalism upon kids as martyrdom as Jesus camp kids, palin
Has anyone specifically asked or actually knew what he was talking about here or was it omitted to take the whole context of the conversation out of context...

whats next the fall of the gop burning itself out with fear race hate and anarchy propaganda with suggestions and instructions as the only solution to act like irrational sociopaths?
This is perhaps the greatest "gaffe" Obama could have ever committed: to say that the USA is not a completed, perfect work. In this increasingly nationalistic society, to say that the constitution (a piece of paper, people!) is flawed - that is to say not optimally suited for the realities of the 21st century after more than two centuries - is tantamount to blasphemy.
He's talking about slavery and the negative ramifications of that practice that still reverberate within the US. If you need any proof of this, just look at the contentious discussion of race in the comments for this video.
Is it possible to be a victim forever? All races have been subject to domination and slavery at one point in their history. ALL OF THEM. It just seems that black americans are the ONLY ones that can't quite help themselves to get over it. Maybe more hand-outs would do it. It hasn't so far. Free college, free housing, free healthcare? So far no good. Still victims. Just can't quit seem to get there. If Barry gets elected, that should do it. Yeah, right.
The speech was titled "Slavery and the Constitution" and the "blind spot" was the racism that prompted the founding fathers to allow slavery to continue.
You think you can imagine what these great men were trying to articulate in that time of unimaginable hardship and tribulation? Humble yourself. Freedom and rights were foremost on their agenda, FOR ALL PEOPLES. Go back to the constitution. It is fair and right like no other document in history. Follow it, and freedom will ensue. Ammend and skew it and socialism/marxism/communism will be here to stay. Lenin/Stalin/Castro/Mussolini/Obama
"Freedom and rights were foremost on their agenda, FOR ALL PEOPLES. Go back to the constitution. It is fair and right like no other document in history"
excuse me?! According to those "great men" you speak of blacks were considered 3/5 of a person and owning slaves was a right to every white man! HENCE the disucussion topic, "slavery and the constitution". Now humble YOURself, read a book, and get a clue.
I'm sure i've read many more books than you have, The ones I've read haven't been politically corrected though. These men were against slavery and brought it to an end, Get your head out of the socialist sand and look at the FACTS. You enjoy your stupid-ass unrealistic views of this country ONLY because of these GREAT MEN.
WHAT?! You havent the slightest clue when it comes to history! I sure hope this is a joke b/c its scary to think uneducated morons like yourself truly believe the lies they make up. Those men OWNED slaves! THATS AN INDISPUTABLE fACT with the documentation to prove it. Why do you think the constitution had to be changed?! B/c blacks were considered 3/5 of a person upon the country's founding. THIS COUNTRY WAS BUILT ON THE BACKS Of SLAVES! PERIOD! SLAVES BUILT THE WHITE HOUSE THEMSELVES! FACT!!!!
You need to learn history. They did have slaves because everyone had slaves. They fought to change that because they knew it was wrong.They did eventually change that terrible injustice. It was a difficult time to state your true beliefs on owning slaves. Try to imagine that. If you read their journals they abhorred the injustice. But they did fight the norm as best they could. Consider the time that they lived. You could be lynched even if you were white if you spoke out. But they did.
lol so typical. Make excuses; call it anything but what it is. You live in a bubble. What say you of Jefferson's known BLACK grandchildren? Was he "forced" to rape his slaves like everyone else? If they founded the country whos out to get them? lol Ur full of shit & you know it b/c you pulled out the "victim" crap as if a conversation on the constitution has anything to do w/ ur republican bullshit. Do this world a favor and educate yourself beyond the make believe world youve been living in.
Jefferson's alleged black grandchildren are propaganda tools. research the matter and you'll see that the descendants are of Jefferson blood, but Thomas Jefferson was like 75 when the slave woman conceived. There were a ton of Jefferson's blood relatives living within a few miles of each other, and there are a lot more likely candidates for paternity than the near-dead President.
Do yourself a favor and educate yourself beyond what the media spoon-feeds you.
In 1879 there was a woman named Jillian who was walking down a creek one day and little did she know,there was a homicidle maniac following her.When she heard a noise behind her,the man grabbed her and knocked her out.When she woke she was in up in a dark factory and the man was there.After a few moments,she was raped and then the man slit her throat.Now that you have read this,every night,she will be standing outside your door looking in ure window post dis on 7 different videos to stop her
The Constitution considered blacks to be chattel. Women were seen as fit for having babies and little else. Of course the Constitution as it was written had deep flaws.
It didnt have flaws, its just we have changed, it was made for the time it was created, but with freedom things will change, women will gain more say, blacks will gain more say, and it wont be the same again
How does that mean i have alot of time on my hands, what are you even talking bout, im just saying my opinion, if you think wrong of that, dont comment, dumb liberal, bet your gay anyway, that tooke me like 5 seconds to write, so yeah i do have alot of time on my hands cuz i dont waste all my time arguing with dumb little kids like you on the internet

where were you?

wow people really need to start listening to what he is actually saying and what he is referring to, rather than taking a snippet out of his entire argument. It's not only a lazy thing to do, but also reflects your sheer ignorance.
Your suc a moron. First of all he is talking about the constitution referring to blacks as 3/5 of a man and promoting slavery. And you're probABLY cheering on the Palin the Socialist Gov from Alaska....Yes she is a socialist and even says so on your 3rd interview after being selected.
This entire interview has been edited to appear completely different. No one cares about Bush McCain and Sarah the socialist moron.
nicktard5454; Before you call someone a moron, you should take a third grade spelling class and learn how to construct a literate sentence.
Your slanted view of politics pertains to your illiteracy and asocial behavior. You don't fit into society and cant relate to any of your peers, so you're forced to delve into other cultures desperately seeking a sense of belonging that has eluded you thus far in life.
In other words... Stick to your dating sites, dolt.
He refers to the constitution in the past tense because Cheney and Bush have desecrated it by repeatedly wiping their assess with the constituion, which you and other Rethugs have then happily licked and swallowed their shit.
"We, the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution, but to overthrow men who pervert the Constitution." Abraham Lincoln
Or what if he asked how he was born? Would you have the heart to say: "Oh, you were the product of a psycopath's rape." What if that kid would kill himself? Would that make you feel any better? To have a grown-up, or teenager kill himself? You couldn't let him live like that, to know he was made by a demon. And to also be reminded, every waking day of the rape? No, I am not a woman, I am, a 13 year old boy. If you read my other comments, I sound a lot older. Remember, to me, I don't care.
I am also a Democrat. And a Catholic, but I am the Catholic Churches sworn enemy on some causes. I am pro-choice. For example, you were a woman and you were raped by a psycopath with a history of mental problems and diseases. Do you want a baby that could come out terminally ill, or worse, driven insane and almost turn into a demon? Would you have a child, or if you put him up for adoption, have that family driven mad? And what if he asked you how he was born? Continued...
Don't we have a right to freedom of speech? You can't critisize him for what he said, it's your own opinion. But, I am 80% White and 20% Mexican. I am sick of all these racist comments. Don't call Obama a nigger, unless you can call yourself a nigger. I am not being racist, I am proving a point. You need to feel what that person feels to understand that person. Some will be enraged by that comment, others sad, others mad. But, do not form a political opinion without under standing that person.
yes but his policies are opposite to that of those who sunk our country into a massive recession and the same as those that brought our country the largest economic expansion in 40 years
Actually they're the same. It's all about big gov't. Don't think that just because Bush is a Republican that he is a small gov't, free economy president. He is, in fact, the opposite. And there's really no excuse for saying what Obama said. He's entitled to his opinion, of course; but I don't want a person running my country who doesn't agree with the philosophy of its supreme law. I don't think McCain gets it either.
it was the supreme law but with a changing country the doctrine of that country should change as well hence the neccessary and proper clause the constitution was written to keep the average person from making the wrong decision and obama's campaign is an every man so he should suggest changing the constituiton which although it is not one of his powers as president the congress though does have that power he didnot say he wanted to abolish it
The Constitution can change, yes. That's why the Founding Fathers gave us the ability to amend it. But "the necessary and proper clause" of the constitution is not to keep people from making the wrong decision. It was to restrain the federal gov't from becoming an oligarchy. And by giving us freedom from a large, oppressive gov't, it gave us the freedom to make our own decisions; be it right or (gasp) wrong. That's true freedom.
@hvacrdude1 I don't quite understand your last sentence about ind. rights vs. corporatism. Would you mind explaining it? And, I think it's only fair to tell you that I made these points back when I was a Ron Paul Republican whereas I am an Individual Anarchist now so you may very well be right as far as the letter of the constitution is concerned, but either way, I don't agree with a piece of paper written hundreds of years ago tell me what I can and can't do.
@Apmhflick The Const rights were to preserve and safeguard the individual rights and guarantee them of the people by the people for the people,,,, they are not there for the Corporate Sector or Corporate Free Reign Market to enslave the people and control their access to exercise their individual rights.
Anarchy=Traitorism when it comes to upholding the Govt for which it stands...meaning the Private Sector has been sold out and all that is left of it is a service industry.
@Apmhflick But I just want to make sure that you don't think if the gov't vanished we would all be slaves to corporatism. Corporations are inextricably linked to the gov't and so a real free market would not be like anything we can imagine within our present system.
@Apmhflick FIRST OF ALL,,, it would be not only absurd and ignorant to entertain an idea of any group of people with out kind of govt.
Second , What you are saying is almost catching.... you are merely parroting what i said.
GOVT does not have to vanish for people to be free, from corporatism out of control or running the govt and controlling the wealth , power, people, and holding the peoples rights kidnapped.
There can be a balance, and the taxing of the Corps, and individual rights do that.
@hvacrdude1 PT1: It's not absurd or ignorant to entertain the idea of people living without a gov't. It would be absurd and ignorant to entertain the idea of people living without laws. All I'm saying is that those laws do not have to be the all or nothing product of a monopoly. Many societies of the past were anarchical: many Native American tribes, the Icelandic Commonwealth (which lasted longer than the US so far), 1600s Penn., Spain in the 30s...
@Apmhflick )PT2: Laws should be privatized and multifarious. And I seemed like I'm parroting your ideas because I was--I didn't think we were in debate. But I think we are now because I firmly believe that people can never be free under a gov't. Let's consider what it really means to be a slave: A slave is someone who must obey the orders of his or her master(s) under the threat of violent punishment...
@Apmhflick PT3: So ask yourself if you're a slave or if you're truly free: can you opt out of paying taxes without being violently assaulted? What about jury duty? Or pulling over for a cop when you haven't injured anyone? Next time you see blue and red lights in your rearview just politely wave and continue on your way, then see what happens.
@Apmhflick PT4: Finally, are you suggesting by your last sentence that corporations are controlled by taxes? After all of the money that's been siphoned to Goldman Sachs et al from the taxes we've paid, can you really stand by that statement?
@Apmhflick Pt4 reply, why put words in my mouth or assume, or spin what i am saying by saying the debts of our country are not owned by Corporate Giants, and that if it is not American , it will be China or someone else...
we need to end the GOP CORPORATISM FREE REIGN MARKET THAT ENSLAVES THE PEOPLE under their rule.
our rights are held captive, our freedoms, our ability to invent, ability to compete with people like franchises or walmart,
@Apmhflick there has to be a certain amount of lawfulness to society or we will have lawlessness and recklessness too.
but the balance of govt and freedoms to profit, manufacture, farm, live , breathe, play, just as good as the next guy or the corporation, is the problem.
Democracy, and peace, and individual rights cannot be abriged or held captive or imprison people .
same with corporatism, there is no entrepreneur anymore, no manuf, no engineering, no product market
@Apmhflick I agree with you , we are not in a debate on most issues here, we can have a discussion , and a debate going on some issues, but its good to air out the differences and be amicable.
agreed.
but to be enslaved is like being a prisoner or held captive , regardless if it is physically or if its ideologically .
there needs no punishment, just the idea of not having any means to act in control of oneself and the freedom to live as good as anyone , including the corporate sector.
@Apmhflick sure its even more absurd to say , to have laws without any governing body to create those laws or to regulate those laws or enforce them...
the people are the govt.
they are not when they are controlled by the Corporate sector or free reign corporate market.
thats not a difficult concept to grasp or understand.
that is where we are since Bush finalized getting into place the last of the GOP Corporate Free Reign Market.
Yeah, I realized that after I posted my comment. Oops. Although, Obama is still big gov't and that's a deal breaker for me. But, the American people have spoken.
OK. I listened again. Yes, he did mean slavery. He's saying that the AFTER-EFFECTS of this flaw in the original Constitution are still felt today. Where's the controversy there? Most of us know it's true.
The amusing part of this election is, that the people who are trumpeting NObamas' theme of change...dont know a fucking thing about the issues...which is obviously a plus for the "Annointed One'
I said a few months ago that 250k was going to drop, what do you know! It is now 100k! He also wants to COMPLETELY remove the SS cap... Folks, SS is not meant to work that way, you raise the cap, you raise the withdrawl cap as well, equally.
How many other things are going to change? Now we find tape of him talking about odd views and the LA Times won't release the video of him bashing jews. This is amazing.
Only the all wise and all knowing Nobama can see the smallest flaw in everything, we mere mortals must take his word that there are mistakes and only he can resolve them. Nobama could not tell the truth, if you put a gun to his head. He does hate America, and if he can not be American, then he will destroy America.
The Constitution was flawed... if it hadn't been ammended, there would be no Bill of Right, women wouldn't be able to vote, there would still be slaves, etc. And it's not like all of those changes happened at once. Correcting flaws is a continual process, as society changes. There is an established process for this, and it isn't presidential decree. This is a complete non-issue.
The Constitution is perfect. The reason the Bill of rights was allowed along with other additions is because the Constitution was written to allow changes because times change. They forsaw things would change, thats why it is allowed to change and adapt with out country.
Presidents CANNOT change the constitution. And anyway, Obama's no Marxist. What we really DON'T want is a one-issue candidate who wants her state to leave the USA and doesn't even understand the job she's running for ending up leader of the US and telling us what's best for her... I mean, us.
They cannot change it, but they can beat the drum to get it done..espessially with the potential majority to come in the house and senate....seriously..look at the left, their on the same page as this Marxist.
STATES have to ratify Constitutional ammendments. It's extremely difficult. You should listen carefully to the whole speech, btw, and you might see that this is a non-issue. It's like people are looking for ANYTHING to try to discredit this man. Personally, I'm thrilled a person with Obama's intelligence and charachter is willing to go through all this. I wouldn't care if he was purple with green spots.
You don't have to look very far to discredit this man. He is an arrogant liar, he associates with the most corrupt anti-american marxist, dregs of the universe, hides his past, lies, lies, lies, has NO character, has been marinated in communist agenda since his whore-mother gave "birth" to this slimey turd in a suit. Power hungry and as sleazy as ANY politician to this date.
if u become president will u help the gamefowl sport to be derciminalize and make it legal to agri/rural areas and will u sponsor a bill that it's our legal cultural rights to our gamefowl sport. Currrently, chicken slaughter houses are in full operation and with 100% killing ratio.
"Representatives ... shall be apportioned ... according to ...numbers, ... determined by adding to the whole number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons."
Or do you think slavery was ok? That's what the Costitutional Ammendments do: correct flaws in the Constitution. Or do you think the Bill of Rights is unAmerican?
he doesn't say it was slavery. He also says the founding Fathers' had a blindspot that continues to this day? What does that mean? I wish just once he would come out and say what he means instead of pandering. Does he want to change the Constitution, if so how? Don't hint about it.
What fundamental flaw in this country that continues to this day? If we elect this guy, is he going to "fix" this fundamental flaw? This guy is scary.
Equality is good if the system is not flawed but when the majority has less civil protection than a minority the system is truly broken.
Many times a black person has sued because their civil rights were abused, many times have black persons won that charge, their civil rights protected them.
How many times has a white person had the same battle but lost because they do not have civil rights to protect them.
A perfect example is the hate crime committed in Hollywood CA. they consider it not a hate crime to put a noose around mannequin that looks like S. Palin and hand it in their yard - for all to see including children. I am sure if someone did that with a look-alike of Obama it would be a different story.
No, this guy going to change the constitution. Remember a man is only flesh and blood but the US constitution has stood the test of time. A man can make mistakes as all of us do. This guy is dangerous. By the way the Obama/Biden now say the definition of rich is 150k what happened to 250K the definition is creeping down.
Obama saying the Constitution is flawed is the name of a youtube video where Obama ACTUALLY SAYS the Constitution is flawed. Just search for Obama saying the Constitution is flawed on youtube, once you find it, be sure to watch it.
In what context was he talking? What is the "blindspot" he is talking about. This clip is completely useless without knowing what question was asked or hearing the rest of this comment.
He's a bit correct. The only flaw the constitution has is the fact that it allows Douchebags like Yobama to become the "leader" of a free country.
Way to go Libtard!
Obama is a traitor.

wow people really need to start listening to what he is actually saying and what he is referring to, rather than taking a snippet out of his entire argument. It's not only a lazy thing to do, but also reflects your sheer ignorance.

Your suc a moron. First of all he is talking about the constitution referring to blacks as 3/5 of a man and promoting slavery. And you're probABLY cheering on the Palin the Socialist Gov from Alaska....Yes she is a socialist and even says so on your 3rd interview after being selected.
This entire interview has been edited to appear completely different. No one cares about Bush McCain and Sarah the socialist moron.

nicktard5454; Before you call someone a moron, you should take a third grade spelling class and learn how to construct a literate sentence.
Your slanted view of politics pertains to your illiteracy and asocial behavior. You don't fit into society and cant relate to any of your peers, so you're forced to delve into other cultures desperately seeking a sense of belonging that has eluded you thus far in life.
In other words... Stick to your dating sites, dolt.

He refers to the constitution in the past tense because Cheney and Bush have desecrated it by repeatedly wiping their assess with the constituion, which you and other Rethugs have then happily licked and swallowed their shit.

Or what if he asked how he was born? Would you have the heart to say: "Oh, you were the product of a psycopath's rape." What if that kid would kill himself? Would that make you feel any better? To have a grown-up, or teenager kill himself? You couldn't let him live like that, to know he was made by a demon. And to also be reminded, every waking day of the rape? No, I am not a woman, I am, a 13 year old boy. If you read my other comments, I sound a lot older. Remember, to me, I don't care.

I am also a Democrat. And a Catholic, but I am the Catholic Churches sworn enemy on some causes. I am pro-choice. For example, you were a woman and you were raped by a psycopath with a history of mental problems and diseases. Do you want a baby that could come out terminally ill, or worse, driven insane and almost turn into a demon? Would you have a child, or if you put him up for adoption, have that family driven mad? And what if he asked you how he was born? Continued...

Don't we have a right to freedom of speech? You can't critisize him for what he said, it's your own opinion. But, I am 80% White and 20% Mexican. I am sick of all these racist comments. Don't call Obama a nigger, unless you can call yourself a nigger. I am not being racist, I am proving a point. You need to feel what that person feels to understand that person. Some will be enraged by that comment, others sad, others mad. But, do not form a political opinion without under standing that person.

yes but his policies are opposite to that of those who sunk our country into a massive recession and the same as those that brought our country the largest economic expansion in 40 years

Actually they're the same. It's all about big gov't. Don't think that just because Bush is a Republican that he is a small gov't, free economy president. He is, in fact, the opposite. And there's really no excuse for saying what Obama said. He's entitled to his opinion, of course; but I don't want a person running my country who doesn't agree with the philosophy of its supreme law. I don't think McCain gets it either.
Apmhflick 3 years ago
it was the supreme law but with a changing country the doctrine of that country should change as well hence the neccessary and proper clause the constitution was written to keep the average person from making the wrong decision and obama's campaign is an every man so he should suggest changing the constituiton which although it is not one of his powers as president the congress though does have that power he didnot say he wanted to abolish it
82235pass 3 years ago
The Constitution can change, yes. That's why the Founding Fathers gave us the ability to amend it. But "the necessary and proper clause" of the constitution is not to keep people from making the wrong decision. It was to restrain the federal gov't from becoming an oligarchy. And by giving us freedom from a large, oppressive gov't, it gave us the freedom to make our own decisions; be it right or (gasp) wrong. That's true freedom.

@Apmhflick it was designed to keep the GOVT not just federal , but the states to overpower the people....

@hvacrdude1 I don't quite understand your last sentence about ind. rights vs. corporatism. Would you mind explaining it? And, I think it's only fair to tell you that I made these points back when I was a Ron Paul Republican whereas I am an Individual Anarchist now so you may very well be right as far as the letter of the constitution is concerned, but either way, I don't agree with a piece of paper written hundreds of years ago tell me what I can and can't do.
Apmhflick 1 year ago
@Apmhflick The Const rights were to preserve and safeguard the individual rights and guarantee them of the people by the people for the people,,,, they are not there for the Corporate Sector or Corporate Free Reign Market to enslave the people and control their access to exercise their individual rights.
Anarchy=Traitorism when it comes to upholding the Govt for which it stands...meaning the Private Sector has been sold out and all that is left of it is a service industry.
GOP CORPORATISM ...

@hvacrdude1 OK. I agree that the constitution was created to protect the citizen and I agree that corporatism is bad.
Apmhflick 1 year ago
@Apmhflick But I just want to make sure that you don't think if the gov't vanished we would all be slaves to corporatism. Corporations are inextricably linked to the gov't and so a real free market would not be like anything we can imagine within our present system.
Apmhflick 1 year ago
@Apmhflick FIRST OF ALL,,, it would be not only absurd and ignorant to entertain an idea of any group of people with out kind of govt.
Second , What you are saying is almost catching.... you are merely parroting what i said.
GOVT does not have to vanish for people to be free, from corporatism out of control or running the govt and controlling the wealth , power, people, and holding the peoples rights kidnapped.
There can be a balance, and the taxing of the Corps, and individual rights do that.
hvacrdude1 1 year ago
@hvacrdude1 PT1: It's not absurd or ignorant to entertain the idea of people living without a gov't. It would be absurd and ignorant to entertain the idea of people living without laws. All I'm saying is that those laws do not have to be the all or nothing product of a monopoly. Many societies of the past were anarchical: many Native American tribes, the Icelandic Commonwealth (which lasted longer than the US so far), 1600s Penn., Spain in the 30s...

@Apmhflick )PT2: Laws should be privatized and multifarious. And I seemed like I'm parroting your ideas because I was--I didn't think we were in debate. But I think we are now because I firmly believe that people can never be free under a gov't. Let's consider what it really means to be a slave: A slave is someone who must obey the orders of his or her master(s) under the threat of violent punishment...
Apmhflick 1 year ago
@Apmhflick PT3: So ask yourself if you're a slave or if you're truly free: can you opt out of paying taxes without being violently assaulted? What about jury duty? Or pulling over for a cop when you haven't injured anyone? Next time you see blue and red lights in your rearview just politely wave and continue on your way, then see what happens.

@Apmhflick PT4: Finally, are you suggesting by your last sentence that corporations are controlled by taxes? After all of the money that's been siphoned to Goldman Sachs et al from the taxes we've paid, can you really stand by that statement?

@Apmhflick Pt4 reply, why put words in my mouth or assume, or spin what i am saying by saying the debts of our country are not owned by Corporate Giants, and that if it is not American , it will be China or someone else...
we need to end the GOP CORPORATISM FREE REIGN MARKET THAT ENSLAVES THE PEOPLE under their rule.
our rights are held captive, our freedoms, our ability to invent, ability to compete with people like franchises or walmart,
yeah, time to stop being selective and realize ?
hvacrdude1 1 year ago
@Apmhflick there has to be a certain amount of lawfulness to society or we will have lawlessness and recklessness too.
but the balance of govt and freedoms to profit, manufacture, farm, live , breathe, play, just as good as the next guy or the corporation, is the problem.
Democracy, and peace, and individual rights cannot be abriged or held captive or imprison people .
same with corporatism, there is no entrepreneur anymore, no manuf, no engineering, no product market
we are enslaved by corp
hvacrdude1 1 year ago
@Apmhflick what u are saying about jury duty being pulled over is nonsensical and irrational, we have to have some form of meaningful discussion.
hvacrdude1 1 year ago
@Apmhflick everyone should pay their taxes,,, its in the constitution, the govt has to work and back up the country and its debts and dealings.
that doesnt end freedom, unlike Corporatism does.
end jobs, farms, manuf, product producing, engineering, and enslaves the private sector with a lil ol thing called the service industry.
Euro and China owns the rest the gop farmed out beginning with reagan, and expanded with each gop admin.
hvacrdude1 1 year ago
@Apmhflick I agree with you , we are not in a debate on most issues here, we can have a discussion , and a debate going on some issues, but its good to air out the differences and be amicable.
agreed.
but to be enslaved is like being a prisoner or held captive , regardless if it is physically or if its ideologically .
there needs no punishment, just the idea of not having any means to act in control of oneself and the freedom to live as good as anyone , including the corporate sector.
hvacrdude1 1 year ago
@Apmhflick sure its even more absurd to say , to have laws without any governing body to create those laws or to regulate those laws or enforce them...
the people are the govt.
they are not when they are controlled by the Corporate sector or free reign corporate market.
thats not a difficult concept to grasp or understand.
that is where we are since Bush finalized getting into place the last of the GOP Corporate Free Reign Market.

The Constitution was flawed... if it hadn't been ammended, there would be no Bill of Right, women wouldn't be able to vote, there would still be slaves, etc. And it's not like all of those changes happened at once. Correcting flaws is a continual process, as society changes. There is an established process for this, and it isn't presidential decree. This is a complete non-issue.

The Constitution is perfect. The reason the Bill of rights was allowed along with other additions is because the Constitution was written to allow changes because times change. They forsaw things would change, thats why it is allowed to change and adapt with out country.

Slavery
Art.1, Sec.2, Cl3:
"Representatives ... shall be apportioned ... according to ...numbers, ... determined by adding to the whole number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons."
Or do you think slavery was ok? That's what the Costitutional Ammendments do: correct flaws in the Constitution. Or do you think the Bill of Rights is unAmerican?

Equality is good if the system is not flawed but when the majority has less civil protection than a minority the system is truly broken.
Many times a black person has sued because their civil rights were abused, many times have black persons won that charge, their civil rights protected them.
How many times has a white person had the same battle but lost because they do not have civil rights to protect them.
I wonder if Mr. Obama would want to fix that?
