That in general is one of the things about America that makes me want to pull out my hair. We seem to love to forget "that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it."
It is possible to change articles, but we're so obsessed with honoring the Constitution like the word of God (which it isn't) that we rarely dare and that annoys me, the UK may make a lot of jokes about bureaucracy but I do think it will be us who eventually end up choking on it.
