The archaic piece of paper has a remedy built right into it for people like yourself. Convince enough others to believe like you do, and you can make amendments to it.

God speed little buddy!

What specific parts do you disagree with? Or do you not like the concept of a Constitution altogether? Or do you think it ought to be rewritten every so many years?

You stand up for your beliefs and fight to change it. The Constitution was written to adapt to modern society and change with it. If you believe that there are parts that are archaic and not in line with modern society, you get it changed.

Try to change what you don't like.
Also I don't think many would say Ben Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton and others were warriors.

Leave. Move to another country that doesn't have a constitution. Emigration is legal, if any other country will take you.

Every state in the country has a constitution written by men 100, 200 or more years ago, that's how the entire system is setup here, you're not going to change it.

Are you suggesting that Obama is on the same page as Thomas Jefferson was?

We were suppose to take the question seriously?

I don't recall Thomas Jefferson being much of a warrior.
