Another Stab at the Constitution


The constitution should really be revisited in the sense that it should suit the era and the current generation. There are a few that I would personally revisit, such as The right to bear arm. There should be some kind of stipulation to this. Not everyone should be able to legally or illegally possess a firearm. Reason being is that not everyone is responsible with such.

Life is precious and I get it, we need to protect ourselves at some point or another. But there is a real problem when someone can just get up and take away another person's life for no particular reason. This really needs to be revisited.

Another area that needs to be revisited is bringing back prayer in our schools. School is a safe haven for many youngers. Growing up, we did devotion as an entire school each and every morning and that set the pace for the day. We looked forward to that each day. Yes this generation is different and they do not want to hear about God or any kind of religion for that sort, but it has to start somewhere.

If I had any kind of power I would change how a president gets elected. In my opinion, it's crazy how the president who gets the most vote does not win the presidency. Maybe it's me, but that should be revisited.

EGUAL RIGHTS  When looking at rights, one must look keenly at 3 areas - political, social and civil. There is one area that many do not talk about and that is the idea of citizens - meaning then that a citizen is entitles to things that non citizens aren't. Yet when we look back on the age of slavery both citizens and noncitizens especially blacks are placed in the same category. There was the ban on voting, education, lack of freedom to participate at certain restaurant or even use public bathroom.  The freedom to civil rights states that individuals are not under certain governmental bias or stipulations, therefore, deeming them free from such. The civil rights movement came about due to the right for polical participation (vote or hold office) and social protection. It was the intent that blacks would receive some kind of freedom from this movement yet dangers came from the civil rights.  When political rights were given, there became a need for social rights, which

The Constitution and the Federation  "The impeachment process is explained in Article II as it is in Article I. A president can be impeached or removed from office but it has to follow a precise procedure. The House must formally lay charges against the president, the Senate then becomes like a court where the president is tried. The House brings the charges and acts as prosecutor, but the Senate votes on it and acts as jury." This talk about impeachment is something that is prevalent especially here in America with out current president. I've heard many talks from news media, radio station, social media and in person about possibly impeaching our President. While I will not share my views on this matter, I do have to say that I had no knowledge the procedures that proper parties must follow inorder for this to come into fuition.  So far I can see that the House must formally lay charges against the president and I'm guessting these charges must be valid,

The Presidency The presidents are a big deal in any country or state. To lead a group of people require skills - leadership skills and influence. When leading one can not afford to be timid, shy, or weak or else they will be taken advantage of. What I've come to realize is that one does not need to be a true educator or world affairs, what does running a country entails, etc.... The president is responsible for making decisions on his own, he is, therefore, examined on a whole on what he does, says, does not do and do not say. In this game its all about who you can influence best. What I know is that a leader is not selfish, but unselfish and a socialist. He is one who loves PEOPLE, not bias when it boils down to race, gender and economic status. One president who is loved by all is former President Obama. Though according to the article he was more influential to the population than getting Congress to act, in my opinion, he was loved by so many, hence, he served 2 terms.
