Yes. As I point out to many, neither the climate nor the US Constitution changes much in one, two, three or even four lifetimes - nor should either be expected to. The climate goes up and down over centuries and millennia and COTUS changes over decades and centuries. That’s how they’re both supposed to work - changed dampened by time so that no son, father or grandfather, great-grandfather sees rapid change.

Young folks - and i was young once - want things to change, not just in their lifetime, but when they have time and energy to care. “What do we want? Everything! When do we want it? Now!”

Twenty-seven Amendments to the US Constitution since 1788 is breakneck speed of change.
