The only thing I think is outdated in the Constitution is the electorial college.  With our modern technology, I feel a voter in North Dakota should have as much say on who is Presidant as someone from California.  I am not saying that I would trust a Constitutional Convention, however.

The electoral college is the only thing that has stopped us from being a completely Socialistic/Communist country. We are steadily creeping in that direction because the large population centers in this Country that get and want more handouts. Without the electoral college they could get them virtually overnight since they would have the political power to do anything a communist like Obama wanted to do.

If the purpose of the Constitution was to limit the federal government, then it has failed and I am sad.

The sole purpose of government is to protect your liberty. The Constitution is not to restrict the people, but to restrict government.  Ron Paul

The Constitution is a document so well thought out and written that as long as Government stays within the bounds laid out in the Constitution it will NEVER be outdated or replacing. IT IS THE GOVERNMENT THAT NEEDS REPLACING!!!!

Very true Heather, Now everyone go out and start in your neighborhood make em understand and by all means Vote while you still have the right!

That is a trick question.  The constitute within its structure is ever-changing through amendments.  The only change that could possibly take place is to make it so the constitution cannot be amended.
