Saturday, September 17th was Constitution Day in America. Happy 235th Birthday to the U.S. Constitution!  Why does the Constitution matter?  Let it explain in its own words:  "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, ensure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."  The Constitution remains the greatest basis for a nation's government ever written.  Many countries have borrowed from it, none have improved upon it.  Strong as it is, it's only as strong as the Supreme Court Justices charged with following and interpreting it, and only as strong as the Citizens of the US are willing to allow it to be.  Hopefully the next 235 years will see it remain as strong, if not stronger, as it is now.
