I would say that the constitution not enshrining a method of enforcement outside the auspices of the executive branch is an inherent failing of the document. Which would then indict its inability to be amended as originally intended over time.
The fact that it was intended to be a living document and has not remained so, I would argue, is partially responsible for our current predicament.
