The people of the U.S. are the source of all government power. If we (as a group) don't like the way things are being run, we will vote in a way that will change it.

Rigid constitutions are difficult to amend, while flexible ones can be easily changed.

Finally, a constitution is supreme when it is recognized as the highest source of law, whereas subordinate constitutions derive their authority from higher laws or documents.
