The Constitution was actually ratified several years before the Bill of Rights. Several states' delegations had reservations about signing the Constitution because they felt it did not do enough to protect individual rights and states rights.

The result of that agreement was the Bill of Rights, which became law in 1792. APEX: People were afraid of living under another monarchy
Informal Amendment ProcessThe term "Informal Amendment Process" refers to changes in the interpretation or application of the Constitution by expanding constitutional rights (such as voting) to include groups that were previously excluded. These changes often occur as the result of judicial decisions, usually by the US Supreme Court or by Congressional legislation not struck down as unconstitutional. It is important to note that the "Informal Amendment Process" doesn't actually change the Constitution, just its interpretation, which is in a constant state of flux due to evolving (or devolving) sociopolitical conditions.Formal Amendment ProcessThe Constitution can only be changed by Amendment, which requires a two-thirds vote from each the Senate and House of Representatives, followed by ratification by 75% of the states. In practice, an Amendment is ratified when it receives its 39th state vote, assuming the vote is made within the time frame set forth by Congress (typically 7 years). Votes cannot be rescinded.When the Constitution is Amended, the new text is added to the end of the document, and the original text, although superseded, remains intact. For example, the Eleventh Amendment (1795) revoked the US Supreme Court's right to hear disputes between a state and the citizens of another state under original jurisdiction. Congress and the states instituted the change due to the Supreme Court's decision in Chisholm v. Georgia, (1793), which held that the states lacked sovereign immunity from law suits arising from unpaid war debt.A better known example is the 18th Amendment (1919) "Prohibition" of the manufacture, sale, and transport of alcohol, except that prescribed for medicinal purposes. The unpopular 18th Amendment was only in effect for fourteen years before being repealed by the 21st Amendment (1933).

No, it could not be changed by Congress alone. The US Constitution would have to be amended to do so. According to Article V of the US Constitution, the process would take a vote of two thirds of both houses of Congress to propose such an amendment, or upon an application by the legislatures of two thirds of the states, it could call for a constitutional convention for the proposal of such an amendment. Once final form of the amendment has been settled upon, it would have to be ratified by three quarters of the States, in order to make such a change to the Constitution. This would result in an Amendment to the Constitution (similar to other amendments, such as the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote).
