Democracy and the Constitution

Democracy and the Constitution

In the excerpt from “21 Debated”, the authors discuss their opinions on why the Constitution is such a vital part of our political system.  They offer suggestions on how our government could rekindle the passion for the democratic system that was so prevalent during the past century and a half.  The authors also acknowledge the apathy displayed by today’s citizens over the democratic process as well as reasons for the discontent.  I will examine the articles and discuss their meaning.  Although the Constitution is a nearly flawless document, the system that was spawned from its creation has issues that need addressing.
	“The Constitution is simply a set of rules about making rules.”  It is full of regulations and principles, such as the separation of powers, checks and balances, and federalism. Overall, the Constitution is the outline of our government and political processes.  It is unbelievable how little the Constitution has changed in over two hundred years withstanding all the political turmoil this country has been through. Jonathan Schnell and Sebastian Mallaby view the Constitution in two different views.  Jonathan Schnell believes the Constitution yields too much power to Congress.  Similarly,
