The flaw is not in the Constitution:


That one political cartoon best depicts why Taqiyya the Liar is more like Cassius than any other character in all of literature.

Julius Caesar
Act 1: Scene 2

Caesar speaking to Mark Anthony about Cassius:
ANTONY:
Fear him not, Caesar; he's not dangerous; He is a noble Roman and well given.

CAESAR: Would he were fatter! But I fear him not:
Yet if my name were liable to fear,
I do not know the man I should avoid
So soon as that spare Cassius. He reads much;
He is a great observer and he looks
Quite through the deeds of men: he loves no plays,
As thou dost, Antony; he hears no music;
Seldom he smiles, and smiles in such a sort
As if he mock'd himself and scorn'd his spirit
That could be moved to smile at any thing.
Such men as he be never at heart's ease
Whiles they behold a greater than themselves,
And therefore are they very dangerous.

I rather tell thee what is to be fear'd
Than what I fear; for always I am Caesar.
Come on my right hand, for this ear is deaf,
And tell me truly what thou think'st of him.​

Such men as Taqiyya the Liar will never be at heart’s ease so long as they are underlings to the Constitution

Julius Caesar:
Act 1, Scene 2
Cassius says to Brutus: "The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, / But in ourselves, that we are underlings."​
