The Constitution of the United States of America
"We the People..."
The Constitution of the United States is the supreme law of the United States of America. It is the foundation on which the country is founded, and because of that, an imperative part of American history and daily life that effects citizens on a regular basis.
Without the Constitution regulating the amount of power the government is allowed to have, the United States could easily and possibly slip into a fascist and tyrannical government.
That being said, it is the duty of every American citizen to understand exactly what the Constitution is and what laws it puts into places as well as the manner in which it can be changed (or "ratified"). Especially with all the recent controversial issues going on with whether or not the government is overstepping their bounds and passing some laws that have been dubbed "unconstitutional" by some citizens, it has become even more important for people to learn what their rights are, as well as what is and is not "constitutional."
