Did not start as shit, sorry, but perfection was not on the table at the time, if so we'd never have survived under the Articles of Confederation. In 1787 we had the best government on Earth. 👍.

Overwhelms the whole of the body politic and true representative government.
Slavery was the norm of the human condition until 19th century Christians fought wars to stamp it out. It was a disease inherited from our colonial masters, bloodily purged at the cost of over 600,000 American lives.
I think the biggest defect in the Constitution is that the population ratio to Congress was never set, just the 35k minimum established, left the actual size of Congress to mere legislative fiat. The House's size has been frozen since the 1920 census, population has nearly trippled and woman got the vote so in effect we have 1/6th the representation today. Bottles up popular will.

It started with owning human beings is ok. Then as now the most powerful and wealthy elements of society rule.

That’s the biggest flaw? That’s not even the biggest flaw concerning apportionment.
In your opinion.
