We The People Jesslyn Carter

After a tumultuous 2016 presidential campaign season where two candidates, with the lowest approval rates in history, fought a gladiatorial battle across the United States. Where one brought unbridled gutter politics to the forefront and the other basically brought a knife to a gunfight. Where social media, hacking, Russian interference, lies, ignorance, elitism, xenophobia, entitlement, resentment. misdirection and incompetent media reporting all collided in a perfect political shit storm. It ultimately ended like a plot in a bad reality TV show, with a shock defeat for Hillary Clinton and a shock victory for Donald Trump. In a time of madness, some people see greatness under a Trump administration, while some people see a dystopia, where plutocracy reigns and the citizens are no longer served. The only protection we the people have is the Constitution of the United States. Written in 1787, ratified in 1788, and in operation since 1789, the United States Constitution is the world's longest surviving written charter of government. Its first three words - "We The People" - affirm that the government of the United States exists to serve its citizens. Again, in a time of madness, ask yourself where were you and what did you do? Read the words in this book carefully and use them wisely to hold those in power accountable for your survival in Donald Trump's America.
