Why did they make the amendments?
The Amendments were written to protect the states and the people from a too-powerful federal government.
Why did the Framers of the Constitution create a mechanism for amending the Constitution but then make it very difficult to make any changes?
They knew that people were going to change, and that the Constitution had to change with them. In order to be a working document, it had to be changed to reflect what was going on -- they knew, for instance, that slavery was someday going to be abolished, but they knew it was going to be for several generations. However, they wanted the amendment process to be difficult, so that the Constitution wasn't changed by people's fleeting whims. In other words, they made the process difficult so that 'popular passions' wouldn't alter the Constitution.
Will changing the interpretation of the constitution make the constitution weak?
The Constitution can be changed. It is a difficult process and quite rightly so but the people can do away with the current constitution and start all over. Because it is difficult to redo a constitutional government, there are those, believing the constraints placed upon government and the freedoms acknowledged by the constitution make it impossible for government to govern. These are the people who reinterpret the Constitution in ways that allow government to expand the scope of their jurisdiction and legally disregard the natural rights of the people. It is one thing to take a liberal view of the Constitution and another thing entirely to claim the Constitution says what it does not say.

When do you think it's appropriate to make an amendment to the constitution?
When either 2/3 of both houses or 2/3 of the states "deem it necessary" is the only limitation placed on the amending of the US Constitution. Very careful consideration has been used to date in making such changes.

Can Obama make a difference in history?
Any politician can make a difference in history. Only history will judge if he or she has made a difference. In fact, every person makes a difference in history, but some people make a bigger difference than others and some people make a negative difference, which is to say the world would have been better off without them.
What is the Importance of history in our daily lives?
It helps us not make the mistakes other people have made in the past.
Why have there been so few amendments made to the Constitution?
Apparently, the process for amending the Constitution is deliberately tedious so that only the most important national issues will make it through, and the government will not be weakened by abrupt change and too much rule of the people. As a result, there have been few amendments in US history, and only one of them was repealed.
