    The US Constitution grants freedom of speech in its First Amendment, but does not protect you from ridicule for being wrong.

        So @neiltyson are you going to be on the debate stage in 2020? Just the debates, you can drop out afterwards.

        That being true. I still think you'd be hard pressed to find someone who wouldn't vote for @DrNeilTyson.

        Sad to say there are too many who vote (R) or (D) regardless of whether their person is capable. Now if Neil started a 3rd Party...awesome!

        yeah. I consider myself one of the only people I know who would be able to NOT vote along party lines if a candidate was capable.

        No, Neil. That's not true. It prevents the government from passing law that limits the existing freedom to express ones self.

        The bill of rights is a list of limits on the fed gov powers. Neil said the government grants freedom of speech. That's wrong.

        No, he said the constitution grants ---! I see that as equivalent to saying that the constitution prevents government to infringe on ---.

        The government gets its powers from the constitution. If it's not power EXPRESSLY given to the federal gov, it's the people's or the states.

        If you laugh off the idea of having to go to college to be an expert on something, I will kindly ask that this conversation end.
