The four ideas


These paragraphys are my four ideas which talks about the constitution.The Preamble is the most signal important part of the constitution, because it announces the point of the entire enterprise.The Undemocratic elements in the Framers' constitution contain some issues involving slavery. The Democratic changes to the Framers' constitution Amendments. Traped inside the Article V cage talks about the constitution and that the Framers had no idea that they created a perfect document.

The Undemocratic elements in Framers' constitution contain some issues. Slavery and most delegates from the five southern states were adamantly opposed to any constitutional provision that might endanger the institution, but other delegates from the seven states didn't care much for slavery. Some delegates signed the final document abhorred slavery, they nevertheless accepted its continuation as the price of a stronger federal government. This  happened after other delegates wanted a federal constitution. Representation was also another issue to settle.It couldn't be settle without a one -  sided compromise resulted from the adamant refusal of the delegates from the small states to accept any constitution that did not provide for equal representation in the senate.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 The Democratic changes to the Framers' constitution: Amendments. The Democratic revolution  fitful and uncertain though it would forever remain, not only helped to democratize the formal constitution itself by amendments, it genorated new democratic  political institutions and practices  within which the constitutional system would operate. The constitutional system that has emerged is no longer that of the Framers, nor is it one they had intended to create. To be sure the first ten amendments to the constitution ( the Bill of Rights) cannot be attributed to the democratic revolution that followed the convention. They resulted instead from demands within the convention itself by delegates who generally favoride a more democratic system than their colleagues then accept. James Madison drafted ten Amendments that were ratified by eleven states. The Bill of Rights was a part of the original constitution.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 The Preamble is the most single important part of the constitution. Because it announces the point of the entire enterprise. The 4,500 or so words that followed in the Preamble in the original, unamended constitution were all in effect merely means  that were thought to be useful to achieving the great aims set out above. It is impossible for us today to imagine how its authors squared a commitment to the Blessings of Liberty with the toleration and support of Chattel slavery that is presented in various articles of the constitution. Some people might say that the Preamble is incomplete because it lacks a commitment to the nation of equality.

United Nation Syria Chemical Weapons Banned

On Tuesday, President Obama addressed the United Nations General Assembly urging for”….greater international action on Syria's ongoing civil war…..”   The United States of America is not the world police.  What occurred in Syria was a crime against humanity and a threat to national security.  The international community should be upset about what happened to the Syrian people.  Approximately 1,429 people died of which 426 were children. There needs to be a ban on chemical weapons and the United Nations should be the enforcer.  “The evidence is overwhelming that the Assad regime used such weapons on August 21st. U.N. inspectors gave a clear accounting that advanced rockets fired large quantities of sarin gas at civilians. These rockets were fired from a regime-controlled neighborhood and landed in opposition neighborhoods.”  If the United States attacking Syria is not an option then placing economic sanctions and placing Syria’s weapons under international control and destroying them should be enforced and supported by the United Nations. Russia and China are against any United Nations penalty on Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.   Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is getting away with murder against his own people!!!!!!!!!
