Yesterday marked 227 years since 39 people gathered in a room and signed the United States Constitution, which is the supreme law of the United States of America. It is the oldest written national constitution still in force anywhere in the world. While it is not a "perfect" document, set your mind to the possibility of it not being set in place and by the way, vanquish the Bill of Rights at the same time.

Try This: Whether yesterday, today, or tomorrow, celebration of the signing of the United States Constitution is still prevalent. Stop anyone on the street, preferably one of our nation's youth, and ask him or her to name one thing they know about the US Constitution. What about asking someone to name any of the amendments in the Bill of Rights? Hope you won't be disappointed!
