Than who actually jurisdicts inside of a court, or legally.. what is supposed to be done?

Is there a general or judge of the military/government appointed to making sure the government does not over ammend the constitution to the point of it being a new document alltogether?

and if it does, do they command the military to over throw them and replace them, and reset the constitution to its originality..

sorry if the question is stupid, im .. asking questions I dont know the answer to =D.

  1. The question is NOT s tupid.  Yes they all have done something against the Constitution which is blatantly WRONG.  I really don't know who/what would have jurisdiction over this.  WE the people should INSIST that this not happen, and I don't see people insisting, which is a very sad fact on the state of this Country to date.  This is one of the main reasons I will not be voting Democrat OR Republican.  After hearing Bob Barr on Glen Beck tonight, this Country and where it is headed is mind boggling.  We need to stand up to these Politicians.  I am thus voting for Barr to bring this country back to our Constitution, and a smaller government


  2. That is the exact reason why we have the second amendment.  We have the right, in the instance of tryanny and oppression to overthrow the government by force should they simply decide to turn on the american people.  Look at China, they are not allowed to have Guns, thus their government can do whatever they want now to them.  But what most people don't realize, they are going to do it under the guise of fighting terrorism.  People will welcome freedom restrictions when the government is drilling it in everyones head that it's for their protection.  Then once all our freedoms are conceded the government will start putting those who oppose the government in one of the many concentration camps fema has set up.  There's a blue print to closing down an open society.  And The United States is following the same steps n**i Germany did.  Look at the patriot act and compare it to the enabling act that Hitler had passed.  It was all in the name of national security.

  3. The constitution was meant to be a somewhat flexible and living document, that is the reason there is an amendment process. Anything is possible but familiarize yourself with the amendment process. It requires 2/3 of the 50 states agree that the amendment is acceptable. This alone makes the amendment process onerous and more prone to failure than success. Amendments do reflect the will of the people. The NOW amendment has been in playover 30 years with little hope of acceptance. Is it possible that a Hitler like person could sway 50 states to bend to his will, possible, but extremely unlikely.

    The fathers of our country were indeed the best and brightest america had to offer at the time and provided a very well thought foundation for the United States. of course the plagerized most of it from the Iroquis, Roussau, and pirates.

  4. The government already has, it's called "The Patriot Act" and the Surpeme Court has the juristiction but it must first be challenged by the American people who have become very apathetic.

  5. Our government has already violated the constitution on many occasions.
