Our Constitution has been fading in color from white literally and figuratively especially over the last 150 years. As we progress IT is giving voice to ALL people more and more. Sure its still skewed white male landowner IMO but the very nature of its core is what empowers ALL people in this country no matter what. Whitey hates that shit and wants it gone.
