Well, he isn't wild about your or my right to be a citizen without his approval (he wants to eliminate clause 1 of amendment XIV).

He also isn't happy with many other parts of the constitution (article I & article II) that deal with the creation and funding of departments in the executive branch (specifics upon request).

Bearing in mind that the constitution is a check on government that acts as an idirect - and only - guarantor of your rights, and here's a man who claims to be a "constitutionalist", but attacks the constitution in every speech, I think I can live without the good doctor as anything more than a hick representative from Texas.
