The U.S. Constitution

Our Mission

At Constitutional Schooler, we make the U.S. Constitution clear, relatable, and relevant to everyday life.

The US Constitution is on the ballot November 3, 2026.

A call to action to Support and Defend the Constitution of the United States of America.

There will be 435 elections on 11-3-2026 that will decide the fate of the US Constitution.   It will be an up or down vote, a yes or no.

For an election this important it is also important for the Citizens to know and understand the US Constitution.

Now would be a good time to give it a read.  It is not long.  It is available in modern English.  It really is not to hard.  It is not a scared or holy text or a mystical revelation.

The US Constitution is our Rule Book.   On how the Federal Government is to operate and it’s relationship with the States.  It has been said to be the most studied and interpreted documents in the world.   Yet it is not that different than Hoyle, Marquess of Queensberry or Robert’s Rules of Order.

The Question before the Citizens of the United States, as determined in each congressional district, is whether it will continue to be the rule book.  It is clear that there are those who would like a different set of rules.

As a Constitutional Schooler I want to present some simple and common sense information on the Constitution.  It doesn’t take a scholar to read and understand the Constitution.  It was written to be used.  Those who say otherwise are usually lawyers who want to add asterisks or exceptions to the written words.

    We the People

    The States, the former colonies, came together to form “The United States of America”. The Constitution was the second effort at self governance for the States. The failure of the Articles of Confederation made clear the States would need to give up some of their power to a federal government. The largest grant was the ability to make laws that affected all of the States. They also gave up the right to lay tariffs on goods from another State.

    Starting the Constitution with “We the People” reinforced the idea that it was a Republic that was being created. The republican form of government is based upon power coming from the people and the consent of the governed.

    “We the People” originally only included male land owners. Everyone could be a Citizen, but only men who owned land could govern. Thus began a struggle that continues today.
