This week we began a two-week exploration of the U.S. Constitution. We know from the Preamble to the Constitution and Fed No 51, that justice is the end, or goal, of government. We also know that for all our trials and tribulations, more people today have greater access to their rights than ever before.
For your assignment this week, reflect upon your personal life, including work, home, school, or recreation. Discuss the Constitutional right that you see, or experience, being used most often in your life. Discuss how or why this right is so readily applied while other rights may be less often experienced.
