I found this article by Cato Institute, of all places, interesting as it criticizes the Republican rhetoric about the constitution as possibly...deeply misinformed.

Vivek wasn’t trying to speak literally but inspirational in his message.

Aren't we passed this yet? When people tell you what they believe or what they're going to do, believe them.

There is a notable difference in political aspirational rhetoric from years past. Do you think McCain would've got the relationship between the Constitution and the American Revolution wrong? Or obliquely suggested a Mexican invasion to stop drug cartels?

Vivek is the last dog in the fight. So he’s trying to build his brand.

The Mexican invasion I just heard tonight.
