Like many of you, I am a product of the public schools. Like many of you I thought the Constitution was for lawyers and judges. One day I read the Constitution, and was surprised to find I didn't need a law degree to understand it. Then I read the Declaration of Independence, the Federalist Papers and even the Anti-Federalist Papers. As I learned more and more about our founding fathers and documents I saw how little we know about how our country was designed to work and how many people just didn't care. I started The Constitution Study to help those who also want read and study our Constitution.

259 – The Zombie Amendment

Ronald Reagan said “a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we’ll ever see on this earth.” Apparently that is no longer true, as a dead proposed amendment simply will not go away. Sounding like Dr. Frankenstein, the House of Representatives is crying “It’s alive!”, when it’s actually dead.

257 – Ignorance is Not Bliss

I recently saw the body cam video of a Galveston, TX police officer arresting a woman for not wearing a mask in a local bank. While many seem to be appalled by the actions of the officer, I see this as an excellent example of how ignorance of our rights has led to the situation this woman was in.
