Constitutional Reform

The Constitution is arguably the most important document to exist in the United States. It’s kind of like the poster child for this country. However, since the day the Constitution was ratified, which basically means it was approved and put into use, when people were still slicing bread with knives, people have been fighting about how to make it better. What’s weird about that though is that average citizens aren’t even the ones involved in these debates. Here’s why: lots of citizens don’t even know half the details of the Constitution, so why would they fight to change it? But, similar to how zombies follow each other, while citizens don’t understand the Constitution, they still choose to show public support for it. I mean, that’s smart, right…? Anyways, because of a fear of getting attacked by the Constitution-supporters, some politicians and scholars choose not to voice their opinions on how the Constitution should be changed. It's like they don’t want to be that one friend that always tries to be different. But the brave people who aren’t scared of RAH-RAH Americans have begun to declare their ideas for change more and more. This makes sense because who even wants to be living by the exact same rules that the people from centuries ago created? Just as it was when all the elites wore powdered wigs back then, today, these politicians and scholars typically take one of two sides: they either believe the national government has too much power, or not enough.

  1. I like how you established an informal tone throughout your blog with the use of rhetorical questions and you said rah-rah rather than American. These two things helped to make what the original text is saying easier to understand and funnier.

  2. You are so funny! How did you come up with “RAH-RAH Americans”? You are so random and that really shows off your voice. Good job!
