And, slow your roll.
I believe in the Constitution because it fucking exists.
Your question, title, doesn't ask anything else.
The term "believe" is a synonym for "support." Contrary to popular atheist conventional wisdom, believing is not a unique cognitive exercise. So, my title is reworded with more detail in the poll question: Is the three-branch separation of government reliable? Reliability in the Constitution is what you "believe in," or not.

Law is what is used to convert the will of the people into government powers. The production of law is the dependent variable that is practically controlled by the integrated system of independent variables of institutional missions, election qualifications of the representatives, appointment rules for delegated security offices, and promulgation rules, formulated for the construction of government powers.
The Demarcation of Law Separation Theory suggests that the powers of government are supposed to be demarcated by sections of law, and then those partitions are subdivided into the familiar three processing entities. Although there are many sections of law, there are just a handful of sections that are generally significant to government powers, and the remaining sections fall under those in an orderly formulation to fulfill the missions of the partitions and the subsequent checks and balances of the executive and administrative powers.
