SAN NARCISO, Calif. (Bennington Vale Evening Transcript) -- With the 2016 presidential election just a day away, both candidates have hit the campaign trail for one last appeal to undecided voters. Hillary Clinton’s substantial lead over Donald Trump fell briefly after FBI Director James Comey’s shocking decision to revisit the investigation into her private emails. However, after officials confirmed again that Clinton had engaged in no criminal wrongdoing, her margin widened. The announcement also bolstered investor confidence in the markets, leading to a surge in economic forecasts. For Trump, who continues to race across key battleground states, the polls’ shift toward Clinton could spell fresh travails. Not to be overshadowed on election eve, the erratic Republican stunned Americans by leaking a copy of his revised U.S. Constitution while shouting, “Stick this in your pocket, Khizr Khan!” Trump has vowed to implement the new laws within a week of his election. A transcript follows.

The United States of America, Inc. (hereafter referred to as “Company”) reserves the right to monitor the use by citizens (hereafter referred to as “employees”) of Company telephones, computer networks, and electronic mail systems, Company premises and any Company property. Monitoring may be performed by observation, or through aural, mechanical, electronic, video or other means. Monitoring may take place on a regular or random basis and will be used to monitor an employee's civic or social performance, for training or quality control purposes, and to insure that an employee is not using Company property, equipment or computers in an unauthorized manner.
Amendment II
Guns are necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, of any caliber or make or manual/automatic operation, shall not be infringed.Amendment III
This soldier stuff doesn’t even make sense. Are we saying soldiers can’t live in houses? That’s terrible, I mean that’s a terrible way to treat our military. This is what’s wrong with the laws of the land. Forget the third Amendment. It’s fired.Amendment IV
From the Trump International Realty Employee’s Handbook:In order to assure access at all times to United States of America, Inc. (hereafter referred to as “Company”) property, and because employees are lawfully in possession of Company property or information related to Company business and may not always be available to produce the property or information when needed in the ordinary course of the Company's business, the Company reserves the right to conduct a routine inspection or search at any time for Company property on Company premises to ensure compliance with its rules and regulations, without notice to the staff and/or in the citizen’s (hereafter referred to as “employee”) absence. In addition, the Company reserves the right to access at all times information and communications stored in Company computer files and on Company disk-drives, and in employee voice mail and e-mail boxes and internet records. All desks, drawers, cabinets or other enclosures on Company premises are Company property and the Company may inspect at anytime without notice. Employees are not to assume that any portion of Company premises or Company property, equipment, desks, filing cabinets or computers are private or confidential to the Employee.
Amendment V
This is such a convoluted and pompous collection of empty legalese. Look folks, here’s how this works. You can’t be convicted twice for the same offense. So, if you groped a woman’s genitals or raped a child, and you already settled out of court, you can do it again without getting in trouble. You also don’t have to answer any questions by police, lawyers, judges, the IRS, or federal investigators. You just say, “I plead the Fifth.”Amendment VI
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a quick and private trial by a jury of his peers. Let’s face it, most of the hobos and fatties you see in the jury box aren’t folks from your circles. So, you get to select your own jury from now on.Amendment VII

[This page left intentionally blank]Amendment IX
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by heterosexual people of Christian faith.Amendment X
States’ rights. The leaders of a state can pretty much do whatever they want with tax revenues, and can privatize any public agency for the sake of efficiency and profit. Additional provisions follow from the Trump International Realty Employee’s Handbook:The United States of America, Inc. (hereafter referred to as “Company”) encourages citizens (hereafter referred to as “employees”) to bring up any questions or complaints you have about terms or conditions of employment or the application of a Company policy. Usually, the place to start in answering a question or resolving a concern is with your state official (hereafter referred to as “Supervisor/Manager”). He or she (but mostly he) is expected to listen to your question or concern and get back to you with an answer or response. You should express such views in a calm, reasonable, and constructive manner.
While supervisors and managers have certain authority, no supervisor or representative of the Company has any authority to enter into any expressed or implied agreement for continuing or long-term citizenship or civil rights (hereafter referred to as “employment”). Employment with the Company is based on the mutual consent of each employee and the Company. Employment can be terminated at will, with or without cause or notice, at any time, at the option of either the Company or the employee. No agreement to the contrary is valid, unless it is in writing and signed by the President of the Company.

I can’t say when I’ll reveal my new plan, but I will and it will be a surprise.Amendment XIII
