How far has our Country come?
Has our Country changed from the original concept of our Constitution as it was written?
Are we getting nearer to a World Order?

Re: the above, I kid.
Apparently you think that the original concept of our Constitution as it was written has changed. While the Constitution itself says pretty much the same thing, it is often difficult to apply the law as it was 200+ years ago to today.
Since we carried over the concept of stare decisis from the English Common Law and since Marbury v. Madison carved out the ability of the SCOTUS to interpret the Constitution, they've been forced to carve out a lot of rules over the years. Especially when the 14th Amendment came along, big changes happened.
At any rate, I'm not sure what any of that has to do with a totally an evil group of wrestlers... and I truly hate that they made the Hulk turn evil, but Rick Flair could kick all their asses anyway, don't you think?

Which underscores that not all of the Constitution was written 200 years ago. It has been amended numerous times over the last 200+ years.

Actually Sting had to come save Flair from the NWO

I'm not a fan of direct election of Senators. The founders didn't want that either.
