Shadow constitution is a term for a vision of the United States Constitution that is not commonly accepted but which is believed to be correct. Two examples include Frederick Douglass' belief that the constitution prohibited slavery[1], and the Constitution in Exile, which represents the belief by many political conservatives that the constitution limits the regulatory power of the United States Federal Government much more strongly than post New Deal court decisions would indicate.[2]
