Part D- The constitution

If i could amend the constitution, i would amend the choice of words in the document. It talks a lot about slaves, but says, person or other people. I see that as disrespect. I would also amend the repitition in the document. I feel that they can sum some articles up and the amendments. For example they say that blacks can vote and then another amendment is woman can vote. they could have stated another amendment, stating everyone can vote. I would also amend the constitution so that it helps benefit "us", the people. we barely have any say, but then if we do have say, would our society be stabled? I Think we should have say on certain things, like transportation, and the little things that affect us.

I have many different views of the constitution. In some ways you can look at it in a positive way. The positive ways are that it keeps society stabled. And It does protect people's rights. But the negative aspects is that There is a lot of shady things going on. To me the majority of the constitution is about slaves. I just do not get how if the constitution was a mistake, then why did they keep it. So if a law that stated everyone had to pay a fee to get inside of their house, and it was passed by mistake, then everyone would have to do that? That does not make sense.

the constitution is life itself. Everyone, well majority of society follow the laws. you have to pay taxes, you can not fight a cop, you have to do what your suppose to. With out the constitution i feel that America would not be who we are today. America over the time period has changed tremendously. In some ways it changed for the better and then some for the worst.
