    The United States Constitution sets the rules for the way in which the country is run. It tells the leaders what they can and cannot do, where their boundaries are, and the foundation which the country is based upon. The Constitution is the piece of writing which allows the general public to practice their religions and speech freely, or the debatable right for anyone to own a gun. Without this Constitution these things would be much more difficult. Although the Constitution is a written one, the interpretation of this work is still up to debate.…

We use our nose, mouth, ears, eyes, and touch, to see the experience the world around us.
