I’m getting the feeling that some or many Postliberal people view the U.S. Constitution as being unbearable because it imposes or maintains liberalism in the U.S., and, as a consequence, the “regime change” that would establish Postliberal governance, economics, & culture would require an overthrow or setting aside of the U.S. Constitution. If that is a mistaken impression, I wish someone would explain. Or, if that is an apt comprehension of the Postliberal vision, I wish someone would confirm it and say it directly. It seems like the Postliberal movement is operating somewhat in the philosophical shadows, holding back from directly saying some of the critical parts.
The Constitution could be interpreted according to the true meaning of words rather than some subjective meaning imposed on the Founding Fathers as if they were a monolith. This would go a long way in correcting Constitutional crises as well as leading our country into a better post-liberal future. Our future us post-liberal one way or another.
