In 1937, when asked "Should the Constitution be easier to amend?", 28% said yes, 60% said no. In 1987, when asked a similar question, 20% said the constitution was too hard to amend, 60% said amending it was about as hard as it ought to be. In 2022, however, 41% said the Constitution should be more frequently reviewed and amended, and 7% it should be entirely rewritten and replaced. In 2022, survey results were also highly polarized: 72% of Republicans think the Constitution is basically fine as is; 72% of Democrats say it should be amended or replaced.
