Kudos to the writer who spoke out concerning the 10 th AMENDMENT; wherein the States retain the power to make laws when they are not specfically prevented from doing so by the CONSTITUTION. OUR US CONSTITUTION was written
in common English so that average people without a lot of advanced education could understand it! Many of you intellectuals have consistantly interpreted the language
therein to mean something other than what is printed in
simple English. As for the First Ten Amendments, they were put into the Constitution for people just like me!
Those of you who continue to demean the character of the Founding Fathers by commenting on their approval of
slavery are ignorant of the conditions and pollitical
climate the first year or two immediately after the USA
was accepted as a New Nation by the European Powers.
Had it not been for George Washington and a few others;
most notably, Ben Franklyn,Tom Jefferson, and Adams.
The USA would have resulted in anarchy and our African-American friends would not have the opportunities they
have today!
