I wanted to share this cool little thing I found this week. Way back a long time ago they used to teach the Constitution to small children. Not just teach it, but teach it well and kind of drill it. This is a book published in 1828, written by Arthur Stansbury. It's a question and answer guide to the Constitution. Of course not all the material is still completely relevant because of Amendments and stuff, but it's a good course for children and adults to get introduced to the content of the Constitution. I thought it was pretty cool. It's called Elementary Catechism on the Constitution of the United States: For the use of schools. Do you remember learning the Constitution in this much depth? I don't. I recommend reading it. I like it.
