The constitution has endured for over 200 years because whenever a serious problem has arisen, the people governed by it managed to make adjustments. It also has the advantage that the present people in charge do not demand that it be changed and all the laws passed under it. Thus, unlike Venezuela, the United States will not change its Constitution and its laws to please the current president. It will change some of the laws, but it will not go through and change everything. For the most part, there will be a continuum.

In my view, the Constitution has survived because of the checks and balances exercised by the three branches of government: executive, legislative and judicial. This system would not work, however, without a deep respect for the rule of law.
