224 years ago:
The most important document ever was adopted by the United States Constitutional Convention.
This piece of parchment, and more importantly the words written upon it, became the foundation for the country to which many people dreamed of living in. Dreamed of emigrating to. Dreamed of becoming a citizen in..
To some, the Constitution is just words, or an impediment. But to others, it is a scred document.
It doesn't tell us what our government can do, IT LIMITS what the government can do! This is the magic of the Constitution. It limits what the government can require of its citizens. Think about it.
Our founding fathers forged a mighty document 224 years ago. And in doing so handed our ancestors and also us a mighty country...If we can keep it running.
