Understanding the US Constitution's Amendments

The US Constitution was intentionally designed to be a total nightmare to change.

That is exactly why we have only managed to pass twenty-seven amendments in our entire history.

James Madison wanted stability, but Thomas Jefferson actually thought we should rewrite

the whole government every single generation. Here is the speed run. The first three

Articles set up the branches, but the Bill of Rights is where the real drama happens.

The First protects your speech, the Fourth stops the police from searching your phone,

and the Fifth means you never have to snitch on yourself. Know your rights or you will lose

them.
