Because everyone would want to move the rules of the game to favor their side, and those on the federal level would clearly try to make it a federal thing, while those in the states would refuse to ratify it , if that comes to pass. For a change to happen , it has to pass the congress/president circle, then EVERY single state has to vote and I think like 75% has to approve of it. That is why most change happens through the court system rather then ratification. As for a holy document, I personally believe in something that is called civic religion, which in america is very ingrained, up to and including making the US Constitution almost unquestionable more so then most folks consider their various holy books. |
