What’s more dangerous to the Constitution and liberty –
1. The voter who completely disregards the constitution – only caring about what they want to get done?
2. The voter who actively hates the Constitution?
3. The voter who claims to be a constitutionalist, but really knows almost nothing about the constitution – and supports people who actively violate it?
Personally, I think #3. I run into a significant number of republicans who fit that category, sadly enough. One guy tonight even claimed he had never voted for a person who violated the constitution. When asked for an example of who he supports, the first person he named is someone that is one of the most anti-constitutional state legislators in the country.
I think ignorance is the greatest danger. You?
