The problem with O'Donnell and the Tea Baggers is they claim to cherish the Constitution in one breath and then go on about how they want to change it.
They want to repeal citizenship rights, right of the government to tax, how Senators are elected, separation of church and state.
The only right in the Constitution they truly cherish is the Second Amendment just in case they need "second ammendment remedies"
The problem with you is you ASSume too much, you know what that makes you? An ASS!
There were originally only 10 amendments! The Bill of Rights. These are the amendment that are by far the most cherished. Not distinguishing between the 2nd amendment at say the 17th amendment shows how little you know. No tea partier is talking about getting rid of the 13, 14 (in whole), 15 or any other amendment, other than the birthright clause and the 16th amendment. But changes in the constitution are not unheard of. Such as the fugitive slave clause, Art 4 Clause 3, 3/5 Compromise, Article 1, Clause 2, Paragraph 3 and of course repealing prohibition!
The birthright clause, is being abused and needs to be changed. It was never created to allow the children of felons to be automatic citizens. I am not shocked at how little liberals actually value their American citizenship!

The birthright clause was created in order to make sure the RACIST DEMOCRATS, wouldn't try to strip the citizenship of the children of the newly freed slaves and ship them off to Africa. Yet liberals now use it to get more people into the welfare system!
On with the 16th Amendment. First, get your facts straight, because the 16th amendment doesn't provide the government the ability to collect and lay taxes, Article 1 Clause 8 first paragraph created that right. The 16th amendment created Congress already Constitutional right to tax income. Most SMART Americans want limits on the power to lay taxes on income, esp in this global economy!
How senators are elected? Meaning the 17th A, LOL, nice propaganda piece douche bag ditto for the Separation of Church and State, which is factually not in the constitution and is created by case law. So changing the Separation of Church and State would be changing well established Stare Decisis! Why not listen to tea parties and not the daily kos, because they are far from what a simpleton like you things!
