Do-It-Yourself Constitutional Amendment Kit - Softcover

The Do-It-Yourself Constitutional Amendment Kit offers a simple, straightforward way to get involved in our democracy, refresh your knowledge about the laws that govern the land, and offer your own suggestions on how to amend the current document as it relates to the issues effecting you in the here and now. From the major to the minor, The Amendment Kit will provoke discussion, debate, and action in order to retain the freedoms we claim as "rights." None other than Thomas Jefferson stated that "we the people" should revise the Constitution every 20 years in order to reflect the growth of our country, our evolution as a species, our relationship with the rest of the world, and the interests of the citizens it was designed to serve. We've got a lot of catching up to do.
