Mr. Constitution Hour by Douglas V. Gibbs: No Democracy Lasts Long, Part 1; New York Times writer Jennifer Szalai wrote an article recently titled "The Constitution is Sacred.  Is It Also Dangerous?"  Her inspiration comes from the book, "No Democracy Lasts Forever: How the Constitution Threatens the United States" by Erwin Chemerinsky.  This week Mr. Constitution begins his examination of the article, line by line.  Some of the topics discussed in this week's episode include: Donald Trump's alleged comment about terminating the Constitution, How the Constitution is anti-democratic, Whether or not the Constitution is dysfunctional, the Electoral College, the Supreme Court, the Three Branches of Government, Secession, Tyranny, Slavery, Three-Fifths Compromise, Atlantic Slave Trade, Frederick Douglass and the Abolition Movement, and the importance of context and what was truly the reasons behind the compromises reached during the Constitutional Convention in 1787.
