Not completely. I support individualism, freedom of religion, freedom of speech and a free press; free trade and a free market, I support the Constitution and the rule of law. I do, however see the Constitution as adaptable only because of things the founders could never have anticipated in terms of our changing social environment. Likewise, the federal government has historically intervened in cases where "state's rights" would've allowed individual states to behave as fiefdoms, disenfranchising different groups of citizens at will.
