I rather think the founding fathers would be spinning in their graves if they could see it today. It is not what they intended at all.
Not so. Look at Article 5. Within article 5, it clearly states how to amend the constitution. It was clearly what the founding fathers intended, since it was part of the original constitution.
A very cumbersome method to be sure. Perhaps to make sure that was done rarely? I can only look at what they produced. We have come a long way from their vision.
