This books about our Constitution remind me of my wonderful HS Government class teacher Ms. Krysiak. I can still see my notes in my minds eye.

I wonder now as the current Biden administration discuss re-writing the 2nd do they also plan to re-write or remove the 13th, where does their overlord authority stop? Well I will tell you, when we stop them.

We are so far past what our forefathers went to war over.

I appreciate the effort the author has taken to concisely expound upon the formation of the American Constitution. The explanations he has provided in this book are easily understood and can be grasped by someone without a law degree. It would be wise for the American education system to adapt this book into the curriculum throughout the United States - To many citizens do not understand the constitution and what a privilege it is to live in this great country!
