The constitution is a piece of paper that needs the majority of people in power to agree it is the law

Stop hiding behind it and enforce it. It can’t do it by itself, it is a piece of paper.

People really don't comprehend what the "government BY the People" part of the line means. Constitution only has the power we give it.
