None of our problems are beyond our constitutional order’s power to solve. What is it we need, after all? We need a Congress that acts like a legislature rather than a company of moralizing performance artists. We need a president who acts like a responsible chief executive rather than a drunken king. We need a judiciary that acts impartially in accordance with the Constitution and the laws of the land rather than in a partisan manner. And we need to disperse the political power that is now concentrated in the hands of the Washington establishment.
In short, the solution to our problems is not to scrap or transcend the Constitution, but to start obeying and applying it again. Under that document, “We the People” already possess every power we need to reestablish majority rule, minority rights, democratic accountability, equal justice under law, and national sovereignty.

No, the government doesn't have to obey the consitution, but we MUST obey the government. Read Romans 13.
Legally the government MUST obey the Constitution--that was the purpose of writing it. And what does Rom 13 have to do with the post--that wasn't debated.
Governments were instituted by God, constitutions were not. Do not go beyond what is written (1 Cor 4:6). The Biblical writers didn't know of things like Bills of Wrights.
You've got to be kidding me. There is no government without a Constitution, and our founding fathers said government they were established was to the glory of God. You are ignorant and pretentious while taking Scripture out of context. You're though here.
