The language [of the Constitution] does not assert nor at all - TopicsExpress



          

The language [of the Constitution] does not assert nor at all imply, any right, power, or disposition, on the part of the original parties to the agreement, to compel their posterity (you and I) to live under it. If they had intended to bind their posterity to live under it, they should have said that their objective was, not to secure to them the blessings of liberty, but to make slaves of them; for if their posterity are bound to live under it, they are nothing less than the slaves of their foolish, tyrannical, and dead grandfathers. -Lysander Spooner, No Treason: The Constitution of No Authority (1870)
