This is kind of cool. Someone found an early draft of the Constitution in Philadelphia. Really, read it, it’s kind of cool, at least if you are a big history geek like me.
Meanwhile, William Jacobson over at Legal Insurrection has entirely too much fun with the idea.
It does beg the question, though. If the constitution doesn’t matter, as many liberals claim, then why do we work so hard to preserve an original copy of it in our archives? Why not just throw it out, if that text is merely an inconvenient anachronism written by dead white men?
Oh, wait, no, no, forget I said that. I don’t want to give anyone ideas.
