>Liberals don't want to be constrained by the views of the Founding Fathers. Remember that half of the Founding Fathers owned slaves, which means if we stayed faithful to their views, slavery would still be alive today.

Also, they were split on so many issues -- the Constitution was a compromise after more than a decade of false start. They weren't of one mind by any means.
