I'd stop at 'congress shall make no law'.

It's interpretable jarod, nazis like you just don't like what it says.
So, no federal government at all?
I like what it says, for the most part...
But there is so much of what I consider "misinterperation" I wonder if it would be better if we had some upadated language....
As language changes so do the meaning of words....

We just need an Amendment stating that each new law must be justified under the enumerated powers. And that old laws will be re-evaluated within ten years, and if found not to be within the enumerated powers, will become void within another ten years.
It becomes harder and harder to devine the intent as time passes. Plenty of whackos still belive Christanity is the official religen of our nation for example. To me it is clear that there is no state religen.

the meanings only change in the constitution if the nazis want it to. 'shall not be infringed' should still mean 'shall not be infringed', instead of 'reasonable regulation'.

No it fucking doesn't. You just hate individual rights.

Law schools are churning out idiots if judges can't understand the difference between 'Shall be infringed' and 'shall not be infringed'. It's not confusing. It's not vague. It's not outdated, it's just not the totalitarianism elitists love so much.
