Written in 1787, ratified in 1788, and in operation since 1789, the U.S 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. For over two centuries the Constitution has remained in force because its framers wisely separated and balanced governmental powers to safeguard the interests of majority rule and minority rights, of liberty and equality, and of the federal and state governments. Since 1789 the Constitution has evolved through amendments to meet the changing needs of a nation now profoundly different from the 18th-century world in which its creators lived.

More than two centuries after its ratification, the U.S. Constitution remains a vital and living document, strengthened by amendments, serving as both guide and protector of U.S. citizens and their elected officials. It has survived civil war, economic depressions, assassinations, and even terrorist attacks, to remain a source of wisdom and inspiration.

The creation of the U.S. Constitution depended upon the knowledge, experience, and dedication of its framers, just as its endurance depends upon the knowledge and experience of each succeeding generation of Americans. For this reason, it is important for us to learn and understand the governing principles of our nation, set forth in the Constitution.

Our Constitution vs Project 2025. Pick a side. 🇺🇸

All these "stick with our guy" people are setting us up for another 2016. JOE JUST LOST. PERIOD.

[patrickkrajewski]

Lol the spin on this situation from the mainstream media is crazy right now. We all saw guys. The Emperor wears no clothes.

[markcosenza]

Lackluster? It's like the Titanic hit another Iceberg!😂😂 Dementia isn't wine, it doesn't improve with time!

[DavidJ]

Project 2025 VS our Constitution. Pick a side.

[brianoden]

Biden is in decline and as i watched Alzheimer's take my mother's mind in her last years I see the same in Biden.

[jimfoot-pg]

Everything that comes out of his mouth is a lie…
I never talked to my son about his business dealings…

[Scarletohellno]

Biden “goes forward” obviously with the assistance of Jill, Obama, and an Easter bunny or two?

[Dittxxyinc]

He’s already beaten medicare! That’ll be the pinnacle of his career!! 😂 FJB!!

[robco]

The frustration is that neither of these candidates is fit for the office. Nobody wanted this rematch, yet here we are. One good speech is not enough, it's going to take a lot more from Biden to push past this.

[samiaint]

I don't hear anybody talking about the nutty things Trump was saying at the end of the debate.

[korkalba]

The 25th ammendment could definitely be used.

[tomg]

you don't give up on your home team due to one bad game. Biden has and will continue to protect America's democracy and values. END MAGA FAR-RIGHT TRUMPISIM IN 2024.

[Mikhail]

Stop elder abuse! It is painful to watch. I don't like Trump, but I would not vote for dementia.

[jimfoot-pg]

Nelson Mandela"

don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining

[Diittzzyy]

Keep bumbling joe as your candidate Dems!! What could go wrong?😂

[icausedbidenflation]

The saddest part was "doctor" Jill helping Joementia off the debate stage

[oscarwhetten]

He knows women are being raqed by their in-laws and their brothers and sisters!

[madmanawesome]

Notice that he’s dependent on a teleprompter. Doesn’t look at the crowd while he talks. Can people really say he’s is the one in control of the executive branch?
