I'll bring up the common argument that the constitution should be a living, breathing document. It should change with the times, but unfortunately touching it is almost a taboo, reserved for only the most important of situations. Even then, it's a monumental task to get anything changed.

We shouldn't abandon it, but we should semi-regularly make changes to it to reflect society at that point in time.
