The U.S. Constitution. Volume 2: The Rights of the People

A Citizen's Guide to the Great Debates on Liberty and Governance

De: David Michael Curtis

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

We have been taught what to think, but not how to think.

Our political landscape is a battlefield of noise. Every debate is filtered through a partisan lens designed to inflame, not inform, leaving citizens armed with talking points but starved of principles.

This book is the remedy.

As Volume 2 of the "U.S. Constitution: Our Common Ground" series, THE RIGHTS OF THE PEOPLE is not another voice in the choir of chaos; it is a tool for clarity. It systematically strips away the partisan spin and emotional rhetoric to return to the source: the foundational texts of our republic, examined through the unflinching lens of logic.

This is not a book to be read. It is a tool to be wielded.
