"The first requisite of a good citizen in this Republic of ours is that he shall be able and willing to pull his weight." --Theodore Roosevelt
civics n. the branch of political science that deals with civic affairs and the duties and rights of citizenship.
There are things we know that just ain't so. Did you know that the Constitution of the United States does not guarantee the right to vote? Below are links to some of the most important documents in our collective lives. But how many of us have read them? If you have read them, how long has it been? Most of us read them for the first time in school, (eons ago?) and haven't read them since. I invite you to read these documents again and view them from the perspective of an adult, rather than the idealistic perspective of a school-aged person.
