Uh, slavery was allowed. Slaves were considered 3/5 of a human being. And women could not vote. Yes, the Constitution DOES change over time!

Amy Coney Barrett on originalism: "That means that I interpret the Constitution as a law... I understand it to have the meaning that it had at the time people ratified it. That meaning doesn't change over time and it's not up to me to update it or infuse my policy views into it."

No we do not need a new Constitution. We need to adhere to the one we have more closely if anything. We do need a constitutional amendment to provide public funding for federal campaign, and we should pass the Equal Rights amendment.
