The Constitution of the United States

All politicians must swear to uphold the Constitution of the United States. This is what they must say:

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God."

My question is: Why do so many of our elected officials do not uphold the United States Constitution when they are IN OFFICE?
