   But you left out "the Constitution seems to not matter anymore".   
      
    “A very large portion of my party,” Romney told Coppins,   
    “really doesn’t believe in the Constitution.”   
      
   It gets in the way.   
      
   --   
   ... Any resemblance between the above views and those of my employer,   
   my terminal, or the view out my window are purely coincidental. Any   
   resemblance between the above and my own views is non-deterministic. The   
   question of the existence of views in the absence of anyone to hold them   
   is left as an exercise for the reader. The question of the existence of   
   the reader is left as an exercise for the second god coefficient. (A   
   discussion of non-orthogonal, non-integral polytheism is beyond the scope   
   of this article.)
