‘We the People’ Loses Appeal With People Around the World

‘We the People’ Loses Appeal With People Around the World - NYTimes.com
There are lots of possible reasons. The United States Constitution is terse and old, and it guarantees relatively few rights.

....In a television interview during a visit to Egypt last week, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg of the Supreme Court seemed to agree. “I would not look to the United States Constitution if I were drafting a constitution in the year 2012,” she said.

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice find Jim.
Reading through some of the links to other constitutions I see the words, social justice being often repeated. Those others are written so as to give power to the gov. not to limit it as ours is. These may be compared to what Judge Taylor might refer to as "empathy" constitutions. What a load.
Bah Humbug
