The Bill of Rights are very important because they protect our liberties and freedoms from the government. Without the Bill of Rights, the government can do whatever they want to us. The belief that all men are created equal is implemented to all American citizens. They protect states' rights from the National Government to an extent as well. The Bill of Rights were added to the U.S. Constitution in December 15, 1791. The Bill of Rights consist of the basic 10 amendments, then the other amendments added down the years added up to about 26 amendments.

Chapter 1
Democracy to Me.

In order for democracy to work we the people must get involved. Our voices must be heard! For far to long special interest groups have led our leadership around by there noses and wallets. President Lincoln said, "America is a great nation, because we are a good nation and stand up for what we believe in. If we ever stop standing up for what we believe in, and stop being a good nation we will quickly lose our greatness as well." So in my opinion if we would stop Pussy footing around with the government and stand up to them as one, instead of setting back letting them make every decision for us, we might just get somewhere.
