Stephanie May's question:
Would the founding fathers be pleased with how the constitution works now?
I found this question intresting because the constitution now has changed a little since back when it was first created. I believe that the founding fathers would be some what pleased with the constitution today and how it lasted so long. It is much more stronger and stable then it was back then. I don't think they would like how the political groups don't cooperate together. I think they would like how the US protects the people and how we grew from a small nation to one of the greatest nations in the world. But it is hard to say what they would think without actually being them.
Aaron Mazer's question
It has been such a long time since the constituion was written, why has there only been a few changes? Why hasnt it been fully re-written at this point?
Aarons question brings up a good point. How has the constitution lasted so long? I believe it hasn't been through many changes and re-writes because of how well written it was back when the founding fathers were alive. It states important things like protecting the people and doing whats best for them. I don't think there would be any other way to put it better then the constitution did when it was first written. Maybe our government is just a little lazy and decided it was good enough. But it has been working for us over 200 years, so why change something that has been going well for so long?
