Amazing

I have used their website for many years, in fact I also have used their website to creat Lawful and legal documents for court in violation of the American Constitution this these individuals are very consistent and they do not waver in their theology of the God given Rights of the People for chump change of the corrupted officials. One must use discretion when learning this type of stuff. And this is one entity that is perfect! I also like that there is no data link or collected about which that is a violation by other entities such as “FARLEX; legal dictionary” this is the source to go to. Please stand your ground and continue the good fight by honest pure education and knowledge

Report on Amendment 15

This is an awesome app! It’s easier to navigate the amendments than the website (constitutioncenter.org). My history teacher assigned us each an amendment and this app helped a lot! Thank you for your help on my project!

apgov stuff

my APGov teacher had me download this 😐😐😐😐😐😐

Many interpretations

Right off the bat, the first thing a new user sees are the different debates and interpretations behind the constitution. It’s funny this makes me think of all the interpretations of sacred texts written by inspired leaders … like the Bible. While we’re at it, let’s make a bunch of different interpretation of the constitution, the new English version, the international version, the liberal version, the far right version, the proud boy version, the Bernie sanders, the AOC, and wang gang versions.

Shouldn’t there be one interpretation? Very funny how the official app can’t even get it right
