About this item
Civics is the study of how government works, but this course is so much more than that. To understand how government ought to work, you first have to know the framework and principles of the people who designed and structured it. Then, you must also be aware of your responsibilities as a citizen within it.
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other. John Adams
The U.S. Constitution impacts your life and future in ways you probably never imagined. Now delve into the history and everyday applications of the Constitution as you learn how: The three branches of government are meant to interact - and what happens throughout history when checks and balances have been ignored or circumvented You and other citizens can carefully vet candidates that adhere to the Constitution as it was written To work to support legislation that works within constitutional boundaries and not special political party interests
The U.S. Constitution remains one of the most amazing safeguards of liberty ever written, but it only works if "we the people" know not just our rights, but the way the government is designed to work - not for the benefit of an all-powerful federal government or per the whims of a judge or political party - but the actual protections at every level that are designed to keep power in the hands of the population for which it must serve.
The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil constitution, are worth defending against all hazards: And it is our duty to defend them against all attacks. Samuel Adams
