Answer 4

Its original purpose was to specify the geometry of the Federal government and to tightly constrain is power. The latter is expressed by the Interstate Commerce Clause and reiterated by the Bill of Rights. The Bill of Rights was added to assuage the fears that the former would not be a clear enough limitation, and such fears were prophetic. Since then, the Interstate Commerce Clause has been stretched large enough that a battleship could drive through it. Some items of the Bill of Rights are still respected, and are still invoked when a court strikes down an overreaching law... they will survive as long as we still believe in them, and after that they will be ignored like the rest. In the grand scheme of things, a culture gets exactly the government that its ideology recommends, and no amount of paper can stop this from happening.
