Citizens! The Declaration of Independence: Now Read It, and Learn.
It literally is a Tragedy that the Constitution is no longer taught in Grade Schools in Civics Classes. The ongoing dumbing down of America continues.

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
- J. R. R. Tolkien

If you don't know the Declaration, you will not understand the foundations of the Constitution, either--especially when it comes to the concept of unalienable Rights and the place and purpose of government.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I like when Time allows to go review the Federalist Papers and George Washington's Farewell Address. Both can be found Online.

The Federalist Papers used to be required reading. No better discussion of original intent than the writings there.

Absolutely agree if the anti-federalist papers are included.

Why do you think it is not taught in the schools any more?
