AS we near the first step to our independence it comes to light that we know very little about the US Constitution…..
These are the 10 most common mistakes….
The phrase “it’s unconstitutional” gets thrown around in American political life the way people invoke “the rules” in an argument they’re losing: with great confidence and very little specificity. Most Americans have a working sense of what the Constitution does. It protects rights, limits government, sets up three branches. But the gap between that general outline and what the document actually says, and crucially what it doesn’t say, is wider than most people realize.
Now you know.
I Read, I Write, You Know
“lego ergo scribo”
I think most people, in most countries, have many wrong ideas about constitutional issues and laws. As an outsider, this was interesting to me, and needs to be read by anyone quoting the constitution in flawed arguments. (My only concern is the disclaimer at the end that it was written using AI then ‘reviewed by an editor)

Ever listen to Tad Stoermer? I accidentally came across his YouTube channel not long ago. He recently wrote a book, A Resistance History of the United States, that I hope to tackle soon. – https://www.tadstoermer.com/

You’re welcome. Your post reminded me of him. He’s no Marxist, but his videos are interesting.
Once again I appreciate the heads up….chuq
