The Constitution is a fallible document that was built on compromises and threats.
Key Points
The process of creating the Constitution was so flawed and rushed that only 39 of the original 74 delegates actually signed off on it.
Repercussions — both predicted and unexpected — have been rippling down through time because imperfect men made compromises just to get State legislatures to give in.
In order to correct these issues and reaffirm the values supposed in the Constitution and purported by Americans, we must approve a massive amount of new Amendments.
