It was not an example of the Constitution failing us, it is another of the many examples of Obama failing the Constitution.
The due process clause of the Constitution protects you. It requires government to have the proper, solid, evidence required to deny you your constitutional rights. Being on a no-fly list is not solid evidence of criminality. It is a suspicion of potential criminality. If we allow the government to deny us our constitutional rights on the basis of its suspicions, then all of us have no guarantee against government destroying our lives whenever it concocts a suspicion.
And that would not be a matter of the Constitution failing us. It would be a matter of us failing to defend and protect the Constitution. Tyrants of all types are very capable of protecting its servants from various boogeymen. But the servants have no protection against their master.
If we prefer to be dependent servants rather than sovereign citizens, we deserve that one-way security.
