The Constitution reminds me that as long as I live in America, I will always have everyday rights. Amendment one expresses the freedom to practice a religion, or not to practice any religion. This give me the freedom to learn about all different religions and the culture of different ethnicities. Following I have the freedom of speech, even though it's not an absolute freedom I still can express who I am as an individual. I am able to stand up for what I believe in with my words.

and I am here to tell you why the Constitution should not be ratified. However, let me tell you, my fellow delegates, a little bit about myself before I state my opinions of the Constitution . I was born on January 20, 1731 at Stratford Hall in Westmoreland, Virginia. Studying at a private school in England, I returned to Virginia in 1751. In 1758, I entered the House of Burgesses and in the same year was appointed to the Continental Congress. Some of you might recognize me, as I was elected president
content is, but what the article’s title conveys in regard to our recent discussions on the constitution and founding of our government system. As somewhat of a side note I will mention that I highly dislike American news outlets (I read BBC articles because there is a clear separation between opinion/analysis and facts, that is not usual seen in many American articles); which is a contributing factor to why I am writing my paper in a slightly modified structure.

a country is an honorable and prestigious task for me to perform. I am aware that it brings the responsibility of my nation on my shoulders, but I promise you, my fellow people, that I will never let you down!

thinking out loud now, but it seems to me that it’s up to us to convince this gentleman—(indicating EIGHT)—that we’re right and he’s wrong” (online script). An effective way to make an argument more persuasive is to associate with strong reactions “There were eleven votes for guilty. It’s not so easy for me to raise my hand and send a boy off to die without talking about it first” (online script).

Our constitution gives the media and the public an ‘almost absolute’ right to freedom over speech and expression. The founding fathers of the Indian constitution attached great importance to this right and knew that this right is inherently important for a democratic society.

Interview Interviewing a member of the third estate. Why did you decide to revolt? Well, many things made me want to revolt. The huge income gap, the unfair tax system and, of course, the terrible social structure were just some of the reasons.
