    The U.S. Constitution: The First of Its Kind

    The U.S. Constitution: The First of Its Kind I still remember being in an eighth grade U.S. History class back in my junior high years. One distinct memory of that course, perhaps the most memorable of all the projects we had, came in the first month of the school year, in the curriculum’s first unit: the founding of the United States as its own nation. As the textbook timeline approached 1787 we prepared ourselves for a daunting task: memorize and recite the Preamble of the U.S. Constitution. We as students would wait anxiously as, one by one, each of our peers would step up to the front of the classroom and begin to recite from memory. Few people could recite the Preamble smoothly, but for those who stumbled, we all seemed to remember perfectly the first and last chunks: “We the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union…” and “…do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.” To us back in eighth grade, that missing middle section was just a group of words to be more-or-less forgotten the next day. To our forefathers, however, that middle section was vital in creating the basis for the supreme law of the United States.…

    Why The Founding Fathers Were Important To A Successful America?

    What values did the founding generation believe were important to a successful America? If more Americans pondered this question, they would have a more clear understanding of why those brave men who came before us risked their blood, treasure and sacred honor to create the greatest nation on Earth. The Founding Fathers were a revolutionary group whose goal was American liberty. They believed in religious freedom in order for a successful America. They understood that the citizens should have a say in their government and that the government only gets its power from the consent of the governed (http://ourtp.org/blogs/blog/our-turning-point/personal-responsibility/2012/03/17/what-did-the-founding-fathers-want-for-america).…

    Importance Of America's Founding Ideals

    America's founding ideals aren't set in stone. In both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, it is never explicitly stated what ideals are most important and what are least important. However, it is clear that the founders of the nation wanted to promote the five qualities listed above. Early colonial laws, the Articles of Confederation and the founding documents of the United States all strongly urge the government to ensure liberty, equality, rights, opportunity and democracy. America was founded on principles of liberty, individuality and freedom.…

    Wooster US History 1301: Triad E Review

    Also please remember that you need to include specific evidence and examples, and that you need to use appropriate academic discourse in writing for your audience. As such, remember to:  be specific and thorough;  provide as many examples as you can;  EXPLAIN the evidence; many of you lost valuable points by not explaining things, and by not telling the reader why they were so important (ask yourself, “so what?”)  provide some sort of context;  use paragraphs (which will help you structure your essay);  use topic sentences (to help introduce what you will say in that paragraph);  write at least a brief conclusion. We do not want to trick you. If you have questions, please feel free to ask them in class, to drop by during my office hours, or to ask your seminar leader. 1. Discuss the constitutional convention at Philadelphia and the process by which the constitution was ratified, making sure to explain the perspectives of Federalists as well as anti-Federalists. Why was James Madison so frustrated with the Confederation? Why was Patrick Henry so fearful of the proposed constitution? How did they attempt to counter the other’s arguments? Use the lectures, the essay on Madison and Henry, and the textbook to write a complete answer. 2. Discuss the views of Alexander Hamilton on the federal government. What things did he believe the government needed to do in order for the nation to succeed? Why? How did he justify his views, in light of the limitations imposed upon the federal government by the constitution? Why did Democratic-Republicans like Benjamin Franklin Bache oppose Hamilton’s efforts? Explain, using the lectures, the essay on Hamilton and Bache, and the Created Equal textbook to write a complete answer. 3. Discuss slavery in the antebellum United States, from an institutional as well as the slaves’ perspective. Make sure and explain…

    Christy Jorgensen September 7, 2010 “The United States Constitution: A Living Document” The United States Constitution is the fundamental framework for our country and the most important document in its history.

    US Constitution's Influence On Education

    The United States Constitution is the framework of education. The bill of rights protects the rights of all citizens, which include the rights of students, faculty, and staff. The constitution was not specifically written for education but many of the amendments have played a crucial role in constructing the education today. Since, education is not assigned to the federal government, many of the decisions are made by the state. That is why the Texas Constitution also plays a role in the education department. The federal and state government both work together. The federal law has regulations that the state has to follow in order to ensure equal education to all students.…
