Our preamble to the Constitution has changed.
It now states, "We the federal government and the courts of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, will tell the citizens that their votes are unconstitutinal. We will tell churches what they can do with their religious beliefs. We will mandate schools to teach values that we the federal government believe in. We will control medical care, so we can control what help they will receive. This will provide domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote a greater welfare base and secure the blessings of liberty to the government."
I believe that our Founding Fathers would not be happy to see how the meaning of the Constitution has changed.
