the most important amendments in the Bill of Rights are not  
replacement for politics but what enables politics in less-than- 
revolutionary times.  Minus the freedom of speech, the freedom of the  
press, the right of the people peaceably to assemble and to petition  
the government for a redress of grievances, the right to be secure  
against unreasonable searches and seizures, the right to due process  
of law, the right to a speedy and public trial, etc. politics can  
only exist as a revolutionary underground activity, the sort of  
politics for which Americans, even leftist Americans, are generally  
unprepared.
