It's this kind of thinking that's going to get us out of this mess and into a better world. I also applaud you for remembering FDR's Second Bill of Rights. I'm not sure how all of what you mentioned would work out, but it's a beginning of a process, at least!

One thing I think needs to be insisted upon in any constitutional rewrite is to rewrite it in plain, modern language. No more of the thee's, and thou's. Unless an appendix is added which delineates exactly what those words mean when they show up. No more arguing over whether "will do" is the same as "shall do" for example. We've gotten so screwed over the decades because of semantics.
