- How does it impact your life today?
The constitution impacts my life today in a variety of ways. It has allowed me so much freedom. It allows me the oppurtunity to vote (19th ammendment) in the upcoming election and it allows me to freely worship in my religion however I please (1st amendment). It also allows freedom of press which affects me greatly as I plan on continuing my education at Madonna University and pursuing a BA in Journalism/Public Relations. Those are just three that affect me greatly at this point in life.
- What was its impact in the Colonies?
- Who were some of the signers? Are they American heroes?
There were 39 people total that signed the Constitution. Just a few of the ones that you might recognize were George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, James Madison, and Alexander Hamilton.
- How does it compare with other “constitutions”?
I will come back and edit this with more information to update the two other questions.
