US Constitution

September 17th is Constitution Day in the United States. I am providing a couple links. One to a site that gives some history regarding the history of Constitution Day. The other is a link to a PDF file of the Constitution of the United States. My Gravatar  is an image of the Constitution turned on its end. We (U.S. citizens) twist and dismiss this document at our peril.

    I like the phrase: we the people – not a King or Dictator . . . in order to make a more perfect Union – not perfect, because we aren’t capable of that. The founding fathers were very shrewd to be able to write this amazing document which still makes sense today.

    I like your gravatar. Your closing sentence is spot on. At least my family and I agree with you.
