As Constitution Day was on September 17, the Constitution Committee of the U.S. held its first annual picnic on Sunday at John Prince Park filled with educational family fun. All the "founding fathers" were there: Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Samuel Adams, George Washington, Ben Franklin and Betsy Ross.
The Constitution Committee says: We are
neither an instrument of, nor an advocate for, any particular political party. Rather we advocate the restoration of our Constitutional Republic by offering classes, lectures, and products designed to re-acquaint the American people with our history, our heritage, and our Constitution, which is the very foundation of our Republic.
Helen Marino with Amendment 4 was there with Ben Franklin
Commissioner Suzanne MulvehillThe Constitution is not neutral.
It was designed to take the government off the backs of people.

It is wonderful that these people are volunteering their time to educate us all about the Constitution. I am embarrassed to say that I know almost nothing about our constitution! It's been a LONG time since 8th grade civics. Thanks Lynn for the link. I need to do some homework !
