Our constitution works. Our great republic is a government of laws, not of men.

Gerald R. Ford (1913-1913)

Somebody asked me, 'are you going to be on the side of the little guy?' And you obviously want to give an immediate answer. But as you reflect on it, if the Constitution says that the little guy should win, the little guy is going to win in court before me. But, if the Constitution says that the big guy should win, well, the big guy is going to win, because my obligation is to the Constitution. That's the oath. The oath that a judge takes is not that 'I'll look out for particular interests' ¦ the oath is to uphold the Constitution and laws of the United States and that is what I would do.

We're a government of laws, not men. It is not for George W. Bush to disregard the Constitution and decide that he is above the law.

He (Mahathir) expects the public to obey laws including restrictions against gatherings, but he himself has cast aside laws and the federal constitution.

The Illinois Conference of Churches regards the granting of an exemption to any government entity for expedient purposes of economic development to be a gross violation of the religious freedom secured by this nation's laws and constitution,

This is an illegitimate constitution presented to the people by an untrustworthy government, ... Our only hope is that we are able to defeat the constitution and start again with a government that truly represents the Iraqi people.

[The U.S. Constitution] forbids hostility toward any religion. In total disregard for the Constitution, homosexual activists in position of authority in San Francisco are abusing their authority as government officials and misusing the instruments of government to attack the Catholic Church.

The White House wants California to march in lockstep with its misguided prohibition of medical marijuana, but the Constitution says otherwise. The federal government cannot force California or the city of Santa Cruz to make medical marijuana use a crime, nor can the federal government use the threat of criminal prosecution to intentionally sabotage state and local laws that it does not like.

Under the constitution, federal laws take priority over inconsistent state laws. Decisions about whether particular rules should preempt state laws are made agency by agency and rule by rule.

The Constitution is the fundamental rule for people to live in society. If the rule no longer suits the lives of the general public due to changing times, it should be changed. That goes for regular laws as well as the Constitution.
