s too vague to offend anybody but you could read into
             it. This made for a document that would be seriously flawed
             because people would be able to read into it too much. It could
             not work. The Constitution of the United States of America was
             The way the constitution was written it gave power to four
             parts: the congress, the executive branch, the judicial branch,
             and the states. Because it was so vague it did not really define
             which powers went where (with a few exceptions). It left too
             much room to read into and take power away from other branches
             and into your branch to give yourself more power. The
             constitution leaves all unmentioned powers to the states,
             representing the people. This seems like that would be allot of

             would read into there powers and eventually take almost all
             powers so that the remaining powers were little and
             unconsiquencial. Throughout the history of the constitution the
             three branches of the government would time and time again expand
             their powers. Each time taking more powers away from the states

             house of representatives. This was one of the ways which the
             constitution gave an unreal power to the people. The house is
             the only part of the government which is directly elected by the
             people. This made the people think they were getting a direct
             say in the government, but that wasn't true because everything
             done in the house would have to go through the senate which was
             run by the elite. throughout the years congress has constantly
             expanded their powers through a broad interpretation of the
             constitution and with every example they have abused the system
             by unbalancing powers and taking rights away from the people.
