  • But, it seems like since a constitution is meant to last as long as the country exists, amendments to it should have to be reaffirmed or they get automatically repealed. So, there’s an automatic re-vote after 5, 10 and 20 years or something.

    That would pretty much go against the point of a constitution. It’s meant to be both extremely hard to change it and extremely hard to revert changes put in as a matter of how it’s done(though never impossible -that would be bad).

    You can only put as many safeguards in as possible to prevent dictatorships, but if they control more than 2/3 of the government your screwed no matter what laws you have on the book
