What specifically about the US Constitution lends itself to being called an experiment?
Sorry if wrong board...I though the OT might be able provide some solid answers.

It essentially put more power in the hands of the people, instead of a monarch or dictator.
That was just crazy talk back then. Unheard of. Some countries may have had a parliament of some sort, but it was just for show as an advisory body to the one man who made the decisions.

It's because the CIA is testing chemtrails on all of us. It's the Great Experiment.

Diversity is why it's an experiment...
People come here bringing their culture...instead of adopting our culture...thus we're slowly losing our identity as "American"...thus an experiment
We have whites who hate their own country

Check out Levin's show that aired last night.
The founding fathers gave us a unique system of government. The Progressives are desperately trying to destroy it and seems to be succeeding. The experiment is about over.

I guess they were hoping that a Republic would have a longer lifespan than past examples.
