You'll have to elaborate on the meaning of the terms "protect" and "ideas."
One amendment to the Cons ution, the 1st, protects unpopular speech. But, there's more to the do ent than that.
The Cons ution (including amendments) was written to establish the framework of, and rules under which, our federal government is to be operated, specifically enumerating its obligations and responsibilities; as well as the inviolate rights enjoyed by its citizens.
If someone has the "idea" to overthrow the government and ins ute a new form of rule, I'm not sure the Cons ution would "protect" that idea.
Exactly what have Beck, et. al., done to "endanger" unpopular "ideas," to the point they need "protecting" by the Cons ution?
