"It's just a damn piece of paper!" |

That's how George W. Bush regarded the Constitution. His Chief Justice concurs.

1. Not to quibble, but that quote came from a very unreliable source. |
|
It also displays an ability for abstract thought I doubt W has.
And third, that quote goes way back and is attributed to many figures. Supposedly Hitler said it about his treaty not to invade Austria, and Wilhelm said it about some treaty or other, and probably more.
He treated the Constitution that way, but he didn't say it.
