Zone1 What is the Conservative View of the United States Constitution

[Skull]

Long, valuable video on 3rd edition of Heritage Guide to Constitution. The book clarifies Originalist view of USA legal charter:

 

[DennisPTate]

The United States Constitution formed the Federal Government. The Constitution spelled out at functions for the Federal Government. The Bill of Rights also provided specifics around things like religion, free speech, arms, and other things.

But, we are in a constant battle regarding what constrains or unconstrains our Federal Government. The courts, constant challenges and outright disregard all have a hand in how things proceed.

Curious to know, from conservatives what their view of the constitution is and how that view affects what is determined by the U.S. Constitution.

3. No predictions of the future.

Over these past eight years I have fellowshipped a lot with Latter day Saint Elders and church members at a local Ward. I really like how Mormons approach the topic of the State of the Dead and I also love how they feel that the USA Constitution was also INSPIRED!

That is actually a rather brilliant theory. I feel that a Plan To Save The World could theoretically begin in the State of Utah? Frankly, I believe that that plan has already began there but soon OFF THE SCALE BRILLIANT TECHNOLOGY under Utah must be made PUBLIC!?

For one example, Stanley Meyer's hydrogen fuel dune buggy has been perfected by a big name company that to a degree is a part of the USA Military and Industrial Complex!

Tap water being used as a fuel that produces steam or water vapour gas could turn the deserts of the Islamic world GREEN once that technology is made public!

With the power allowed by the Supremes

We want it to happen.

Authors from 30 and 40 years discuss how the left pushed it's agenda using the courts becasue they know they'd never get it passed as bills.

I am not too fond of the supreme court, either. Best justice money can buy.

Completely disagree.

But I am asking (per the OP) what conservatives think of where the Constitution is at this point in time.

Certainly, we don't have a strict constitutionalist in Trump.

Just to put back in, the context of what you purposely removed from the quote box to make your response too:
I stand with the constitution. The people that do not, are not conservatives, but anarchists, who like little kids, want what they want, right now, unwilling to work through the legislative process. We have had the worst legislative branch during the years 2016 to now, I have ever seen. With the power allowed by the Supremes, I am not too fond of the supreme court, either. Best justice money can buy.
What the Supremes allow is not, and never was supposed to be about what we want. Their job is determine constitutionality, based on the actual constitution, not political or even populist public whim.

To answer your question "sking (per the OP) what conservatives think of where the Constitution is at this point in time."

The Constitution is on shaky grounds with this administration and this Supreme Court, but not down for the count, as witnessed by the Supremes' refusal to let trump send troops anywhere in the country he wants. Simply on his whim or political motivation.

If I am incorrect in this assumption you have my apologies in advance but as of today, January 2, 2026 there is only ONE man on this earth who could convincingly play the role of The White Horse President. That man is of course Mr. Mitt Romney. A powerful case can be presented that not only was the 2020 election stolen by fraud but also perhaps even the 2012 election. I suspect that Mr. Mitt Romney will NOT even want to discuss this.......
but a GROUP OF MORMONS, could for a film production cooperative or kibbutz or company or two or three......
and they could in theory do something HUGE with this general concept?


This discussion will get you nearly up to speed regarding what I have in mind?

Thread 'A Utah State currency and preventing the 2026 to 2036 Bear Market?'

Nov 28, 2025

There is a rather old Latter day Saint prediction that I believe could be useful over the coming decade in preventing a Bear Market as well as the "Dystopian Nightmare" predicted by the rather brilliant Mo Gawdat?


Could a Utah State Volunteerism Dollar and - or a Utah State Volunteerism Hour alternative currency note be used to flip Wall Street and the T. S. E. away from Pessimism and toward Optimism?


President Trump may not like this idea though because Mr. Mitt Romney and him have NOT been on the best of terms but it is obvious that President Donald J. Trump is in a position to...

And what are some of your key views on what the Constitution says.

As an example: The Bill of Rights says congress shall make no laws regarding the establishment of religion. To me that says we can do whatever we want in the public arena with regards to religion and it's none of Congress' business. We can have prayer in school. We can prayer in our businesses. We can have the ten commandments and the Quran or whatever else the people want in our court houses.

And......
a Private School could be funded in such a way that educators and students all become ACTORS playing the role of educators as well as students.

Brigham Young University in Jerusalem sets up Latter day Saint Elders and Sisters and all educators and students at BYU in Jerusalem to play a special role in assisting ten million Israelis to begin to cooperate more and more with the Islamic nations.

It should be easy to finance a reality film series starring LDS educators and students in Jerusalem but..... each Latter day Saint who is willing to tackle the "Goliath of Fame" needs to pray about this and think about this because in 2026, becoming famous can get us "Charlie Kirked."

Here is a question that BYU Jerusalem, educators and students could have some fun with?

Thread 'Is "Sorek" desalination technology the only way to save vulnerable real estate from rising ocean levels?'

Dec 17, 2025

My apologies if I am in error but it is my belief that a Carbon Tax will do essentially NOTHING to prevent ocean levels from rising?

My belief is that mega-scale desalination projects similar to "Sorek" that are fuelled by natural gas are the only practical technology at this time that could be used to put a comparable amount of desalinated H2O into the deserts of this world as well could soon begin to crack and slide off the LAND BASED Greenland Ice Sheets?

I love the look of the existing Solar powered desalination technology BUT it seems also clear to me that this technology cannot...

You shouldn't. If SCOTUS told you to jump over a bridge, would you?

For example, Marbury vs Madison gave SCOTUS complete authority on determining what is Constitutional and what is not. Jefferson was enraged by that ruling, and said that was wrong.

Right not, Justice Brown is an absolute laughing stock, as her own Left wing loons try to splain to her that she does not really understand the issues being brought before her, or that she is not following proper procedures.

And yes, justice Brown, we all know what a woman is, thanks for asking.



And no, if the Left puts in 8 more stooges like her, what the hell to I care what they say about the Constitution?

I don't.

That is because we put people on the court Not by their skill set, but by there political party affiliations

The main thing harming any part of the Constitution is the populace for which it governs. We have devolved into a heavily secular, degenerate society.. and that's a problem.

Don't believe me? Go to the source:

“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” John Adams.

The constitution wasn't made to deal with people without a moral framework (which is what secularism is). Christian populism needs to continue to rise so it can become the dominant social force in our country. That way we can promote and celebrate Christian virtues, which benefit believers and non-believers.
