British! Her accent is merging into american, due to living out there and role requirements, but she is definitely British :)
Liberals
I don't believe the twelfth amendment supports the idea any more than the other amendments. The idea of a living constitution is the belief that the constitution must change and evolve as our country does and all the amendments are support of that idea because amendments are change. It also comes from the notion that the constitution is purposely broad so as to leave it open for interpretation and change.

The Constitution of the United States is considered a living constitution because it can be ammended by the Supreme Court and so while it was written a long time ago it is still being changed to this day. So, because the original document is not "written in stone" and can be altered it is considered to be a "living" constitution. If this is a homework question, next time use the index or table of contents if you are unwilling to do a bit of proper reading or research, it will only take about a minute to find the answers.
Of course the statement "the constitution is a living document" is metaphorical, since no document is living, it's a piece of paper with writing on it. As a metaphor, this statement would suggest that the constitution remains relevant and connected to the society which it helped to establish in the late 18th century, which is a long time ago. If you think that the constitution has become irrelevant, then you would say that the constitution is not a living document. Personally I find it to still be relevant.
The theory that best matches the preamble to the U.S. constitution is the will of the people. The preamble refortified the fact that the constitution was written by and for the people. This means the constitution continues to be a living document, since it governs the will of an entire nation. Without a democratic form of government, however, the constitution would simply be null and void.
Living constitution theory is a method of interpreting the Constitution that emphasizes the principles it embodies and their application to changing circumstances and needs.
"We the People" refers to all citizens of the United States. However, in 1789 slaves were not included in this statement.

How did the new Texas Constitution treat Mexicans living in Texas?
Where were the British living comfortably
The statement that the court agrees that a worker needs a living wage is true. The standard that is called a living wage is difficult to determine and is not determined by the court itself, but this is not a false statement.
