How many Americans believe they have constitutional rights?
I was curious how many people are aware that congress with out authority of the constitution in 1871 incorperated the united states changing the title of the organic constitution .By doing that they dissolved the republic established by the founding fathers . Americans from that time no longer have constitutional rights .But privleges granted to us by government as the see fit

I don't think that we have any rights in America and I think that that is exactly how our government wants it to be. A lot of the liberals seem to want that too. I think they enjoy living as slaves.
But, not me. I will never submit.

The Republic founded by the founding Fathers worked under the articles of confederation.. When our present Constitution was written it strengthen the central Government and stated exactly what the government could and could not do. These are what typically constitute the rights of the People.

Nah, our rights are endowed by our Creator, and as such are inalienable, no matter what Congress may have done in 1871.

We have rights and some privileges. We have the right to bear arms, we don't have the right to vote, that is a privilege.
