A very large number of Americans think the Constitution is synonymous with the Bill of Rights (due to a decades-long propaganda campaign). You tell them the constitution is dog shit and they think you want to rip away their (imaginary) free speech, due process, and protection against unlawful searches when you're really saying the Senate is a redundant, explicitly anti-democratic institution, the electoral college is a fucking joke, and allocating an entire branch of government to 9 lifetime-appointed Federalist Society grand-wizards is idiotic.

Well-meaning liberals understand we need constitutional reforms. Something needs to be done about the unlimited anonymous corporate campaign funding, gerrymandering, wealth inequality, felony disenfranchisement, and a long list of other issues. The Supreme Court has ruled incorrectly on a number of critical issues and this needs to be set straight by a series of constitutional amendments. And yet, the constitutional amendment process is completely captured by these same anti-democratic rulings. They need to connect the dots.
