Don't my constitutional rights to freedom of speech, freedom of religion and the enjoyment of my property prevail over the restrictive covenants or the powers of the association?

Not in all cases.  If you choose to purchase a restricted property, you agree to abide by the restrictions. Display of signs, flags or banners, certain uses of the property, storage of personal property (e.g., boats, RV's, etc.), keeping of animals, and other practices can lawfully be controlled by restrictive covenants if they are properly created and enforced.
