Back on July 4th, we did a deep dive into the Declaration of Independence. One of our Community Chat members asked us about doing something similar for the Constitution...so not only are we going to do that, but we are going to discuss the most deliberately misrepresented parts of the Constitution as well as the portions you should hate...that's right I said it! All of that and more...

0:00.0 | Welcome, everybody. Back on the 4th of July, we actually published a video talking about things you needed to know about the Declaration of Independence. |
0:08.0 | We did something of a deep dive into all of the different reasons that were mentioned for why the United States was separating from Great Britain. |
0:16.0 | Well, we had Justin in our community chat, came forward and said, hey, would you mind doing something similar with respect to the Constitution? |
0:22.7 | We said, that sounds like a great idea. |
0:24.8 | We don't think we're going to be able to do this justice in just one podcast episode. |
0:28.5 | So we decided to go over a couple of things that we're going to talk about today. |
0:31.5 | One is talking about why do you even need a written constitution in the first place? |
0:35.7 | And this may seem obvious, but it's actually |
0:37.6 | really unique all the way up until when the Constitution was ratified. This was not the norm |
0:42.3 | within history. But the other thing that we really want to get to is we want to talk about the |
0:47.0 | most, I would argue, deliberately misrepresented portions of the Constitution, not to mention |
0:53.7 | at least two. We might talk about a |
0:56.4 | couple more, but at least two amendments that were absolutely horrible and still exist within |
1:02.2 | the United States Constitution. All of that and more coming up on this episode of making the |
1:05.9 | argument. On another note, if you joined us for a Tuesday's episode where we reacted to the |
1:10.7 | Sound of Freedom |
1:11.3 | and are interested in viewing the whole interview with Victor Marks, you can do so on |
1:15.3 | Making the Argument YouTube channel. |
1:17.1 | I'll leave a link in the description of this show for that. |
1:19.5 | We've had some great conversations going on in our community chat, and if you haven't joined |
1:23.3 | already, I hope you'll go down to the link in the description, click that link. |
1:26.4 | Join us there. We'd love to get to know you and have a conversation with you about this topic after the show. |
