Why we've stopped teaching the U.S. Constitution in schools is beyond me. I charge anyone reading this with children to ask their school not if but WHEN they'll be covering the U.S. Constitution and participate with your child in learning the history of this great document. It is our mission statement as a country, our values clarification. It staggers my mind that there some immigrants know the document better than many born here.
Don't take it for granted. It's never too late. If you've never read it, I charge you to do so now. If you have read it, read it again with the new eyes of a citizen waking up to our new reality.
You can read the document here. Do so now.
With Great Respect,
Dave Capano
