Kids should know more about how amazing our democracy truly is. There is no perfect government system - any system that seeks to organize a complex society is dependent upon the temperament and enlightenment of the people themselves, and any flaws are to be worked out peacefully within an ever-evolving process. This book proves that the origins of our constitution, beginning with a declaration of rights, was the most well-thought-out document ever created by man, following hundreds of years of our best and brightest toiling and working together. The more we come to know just how smart and wise these people were, and how many brilliant people we are still surrounded by daily, the sooner we can be redeemed from the current problems we are faced with. We need to educate our youth as to the greatness of the people that have come before us, and the sturdiness of our American government, built upon reliable checks and balances, so they can do less questioning of themselves and spend more time trusting in what we have already built.
