The Constitution Study
Most likely, you are where I was. When it came to the U.S. Constitution, I was ignorant and apathetic. I didn’t know what it said, and I really didn’t care. I freely admit I learned more about the Constitution from School House Rock (a Saturday morning cartoon) than in 12 years of school.
That changed when I accepted a challenge from John Jay, one of our Founding Fathers, and read the Constitution for myself. When I realized how much I did not know, I decided to read more, but when I found out how much of what I had been taught about the Constitution was wrong, I went from simply reading to studying and sharing the supreme law of the land.
I started with a small study in my home town, but the more I learned, the more I felt called to share with others. Now, after two years of work, my new book, The Constitution Study is ready.
There are lots of different tools you can use to protect your rights. Learn about some of them on page 56.
Federal law is supreme in all cases, right? WRONG! Learn about the Supremacy Clause and how to use it on page 282.
The one thing you should NEVER do when you enter the voting booth. (Hint: It’s the one thing you’re told to do almost every election cycle.)
When it’s OK to let your elected representative “off the hook”. (Hint: It’s never OK. And you will see why as you read this book.)
Why even though you may have read the Constitution, you need to spend time studying it.
There are lots of reasons we declared independence in 1776. Learn about them starting on page 35.
Congress can enact any legislation they can get passed, right? WRONG! Learn about the limits of Congressional power on page 164.
The one thing you must NEVER do if you wish to live in a free country. (Hint: It’s the one thing most everyone assumes is necessary.)
