The Democrats have made it plenty clear over the years that they don’t like the Constitution as written. They hate free speech, a free press, religion that is free from government intervention and, most of all, the Second Amendment and its clear recognition of every citizen’s inherent right to bear arms. Unable to change these principles, they opt for imaginary rights (e.g., abortion, same-sex marriage) and dream of packing the Supreme Court to circumvent the intentionally cumbersome amendment process. But they always pay lip service to the Constitution. That is, until Rep. David Cicilline (D. R.I.) spoke openly about his contempt. He is to be praised for his honesty.

That opening paragraph is the frank, unvarnished assessment that we should have been hearing from our big conservative thinkers for the last 40 years. When we avoid hard truths, we leave the world of reason, ideas and argument and retreat to the world of propaganda and Big Government owned by the Left.
Instead of candor, we had a commentariat filled with the likes of Will and Goldberg, who really were nothing more than a governor on the speed we rolled downhill as a nation.
What the author leaves out of that intro about the Left's disregard for the Constitution, which is even more relevant, is their track record for disregard for human rights. These people carry the name of the singular, western institution to advocate keeping human beings as slaves -- the Democrat Party. Not only do they have no regard for the Constitution, they have no regard for humanity.

If a government official takes the oath of office and promises to "defend the Constitution" which includes the Bill of Rights, and then claims the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are Bullshit. Should they not be immediately removed from office as a violation of their Oath of Office? Asking for a friend.

At some point he needs a real lesson about 2nd Amendment rights, and he doesn't grasp that the Constitution is the ONLY thing that is keeping him alive today.

If you believe that, Mr.Cicillne, resign, leave government. You swore an oath to protect and uphold the Constitution. You are no longer qualified to sit as a representative of the People of the United States of America.

Have it on another post, but will repeat.
You can receive a bumper sticker with the words "I (heart) the Constitution" on it. Red white and blue, of course, with the red heart representing the word, "Love". Received it from Hillsdale College which is a great school in Michigan which takes no monies from our government so it can be independent.
Hillsdale College.edu. Since they receive no government assistance, you can offer a donation which always is welcomed. They have great free on-line courses, free pocket Constitutions, reprints of thoughtful speeches given by men and women who love our country, and more.
Wouldn't be great if the "I Love the Constitution" bumper sticker could be seen on cars throughout the land?

They were not referring to elections.

The American system is broken when clowns can take office after swearing to uphold the Constitution then sit in their States' Seat at the Federal level attacking the very Constitution they swore to uphold. Demonrats have corrupted the political discourse and machinery of the Federal and some States' level for their own sordid gain. In doing so they have made it more likely they will win the battle but lose the war, or worse yet, win the war and lose the prize.

#3,8 - this has been litigated in the past. Basically the (demo-commie) courts said tough noogies.

A republic for as long as you can keep it.
Our Constitutional form of republic governance 'Is designed to serve a religious people', It is completely inadequate and will not work as designed for the non religious people.
This is why all evil people hate our Constitution and would destroy it and all copies in the world. So far they have only illegally subverted our constitution with evil Lucifer (Satan) servants trying to interpret it's words to mean other than what they truly mean in God's conception.

Ciciline is a loudmouthed hothead, and a fool. There is no correcting a fool. Nothing can be done. Erase him from your attention.
