Okay, I've noticed some folks here have a little bit of a misconception of what the U.S. Constitution is, why it was written, and how it is supposed to be used. This is by no means an end all be all study of the Constitution, but I hope it will spur some thought, and encourage people to dig deaper.
The U.S. Constitution is the single most important document in our nation's government. It is the supreme law of the land, thus all other laws must adhere to it's basic precepts and ideas of protection of individual rights, protection of property, and protection of the states.
Therefore, I've attached a .pdf of said U.S. Constitution, and a link to some sites that describe it's history. Enjoy.:)

History and Resourses: http://www.constitution.org/

Declaration of Independence: http://www.constitution.org/usdeclar.pdf
Anybody else with some other, perhaps better, resouses, please add them. In the interest of time, I didn't go nuts with the web links. There's a lot of info out there waiting for seekers to find it.:cool:
