Things to Make the Country Better #2
United States citizens need to learn the constitution. This is key to controlling our government.
If I asked you what article 1 was about, could you answer me? How about telling me the article and section that discusses the limits on legislative power?
I’m not saying we should all be constitutional lawyers. But, if we learned this one document, we would run rings around many constitutional lawyers.
I have posted two pages that contain the entire constitution.
The Preamble and Articles of the United States Constitution
The Amendments to the Constitution

Before even reading it, we need to stop this “living document” idea.
The idea of a constitution should be it means the same thing today as it meant yesterday, and it will mean tomorrow.
Too many people are taking the stance that culture has changed so much, that they ignore the universal truths for everyone’s detriment.
Wait, am I talking about the Constitution or the Bible?

Clearly you and TechSun don’t “get it.” The Constitution is supposed to be whatever you want it to be whenever that’s convenient.
