Why is the U.S. Constitution an evolving document?
It keeps being amended and reinterpreted, so its meaning keeps changing.
Is the constitution a enduring document?
Basically, Yes The constitution was made to be timless. It has such things that allow it to be interpreted different ways, because the writers knew that the world will forever change. If this doesn't answer your question, please email me at: nickdb93@verizon.net -Glad to help, Nick- In the majority of the constitutions, is signed to stablish the formula of "the soveregnity resides on the people " So if the actual constitution is afected in any way by present and actual conflict, the constitution itselfs stablish gives to the people the autority to change or restablish the actual constitution. So the constitution is an timeless document in form, and in background.
Which method of interpreting the Constitution original intent or living document do you think is more valid?
Since you are asking an opinion I will give you mine. I believe that looking at the constitution as a living document is more valid. When the constitution was written 200 years ago many things we have today didn't exist, so there is a need to be able to address the world as it is not as it was. The one thing that hasn't changed is the question about what makes good government. If we can answer this question we maybe able to create a better government for the common good.

Did Jefferson support a loose interpretation of the constitution?
