The “Living” Constitution Is Really A Dead Constitution

Stop whatever you’re doing (except for finishing this sentence) and go read this excellent post arguing that a “living” Constitution is really a dead Constitution. (HatTip to Randy Barnett)

For what it’s worth (not much, I suspect) I tried to make the same point about “intent” vs. “meaning” here, with reference to Martin Luther King’s “I Have A Dream” speech.

Say What?
