Constitutional Amendments That Could Have Reshaped American History, Part Three
Historian Jill Lepore writes,
Constitution was intended to be amended, in her book "We the People: A History of the U.S. Constitution." However, most efforts to amend the Constitution fail, with many proposed amendments dying in congressional committees.
At present, six proposed amendments await possible state ratification, including one from 1789. Many failed amendments involve minor administrative matters.
