Maybe some of us should get off our high horses and stop lecturing other about what the document means. As if to disagree qualifies one for a remedial course in american history.
It is fine and fair to say that "in my opinion, the meaning is ...". But the certainty with which the idiots profess and lecture is very annoying and often wrong.

All who disagree are idiots. Next case.
For the record, i do not include you in the group of idiots cited above.
