Doesn't the US Constitution say something about "Government for the

No. That's from Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. When was the last time you
read
the US Constitution? It's a worthwhile exercise every few years. Doesn't
take
long, it is an impressively short document for what it is.

The U.S. Constitution is less than a quarter the length of the owner's
manual for a 1998 Toyota Camry, and yet it has managed to keep 300
million of the world's most unruly, passionate and energetic people
safe, prosperous and free.
