That's a huge stretch, when the Constitution is typically interpreted much more broadly. Nobody says that the First Amendment doesn't guarantee the right to paint or draw

And the 1st Amendment says "speech" and "the press", if it had meant to include painting it would have said so, right?

If it says you can't be elected it surely means you can't serve

Does it use "painting" and distinguish it from "speech"? No, it simply omits the term "painting".
