How about if I could keep just one U.S. law...\n\nthe one that gives the Federal Government \n\nONE JOB\n\nAND\n\nONLY ONE JOB...\n\nto protect us from foreign invasion.\n\nThen they could leave us alone with the rest of their control tactics. Where's the freedom in this FREE COUNTRY?

section one says that all people born in the US  are automatically citizens (even if their parents are citizens of another country, or illegally in the US).  More importantly, this section holds the equal protection clause, which ensures that in the eyes of the law, that no person can be treated better or worse then another.  Its kind of like saying that justice is blind, and that everyone will be treated with the same justice.\nsection two says that congressmen's districts will be chosen by evenly dividing the state into districts of similar populations (number of people).\nsection three says that no government employees can participate in a rebellion (in this case the civil war), and that congress may remove the said person with a 2/3rds vote from each house.\nsection four says that the US government isnt going to cover any debts incurred as part of the Civil War. (in other words, the slave owners wont be compensated for their losses of land and labor because of the war.)\nsection five clarifies that congress can make any law helping in administering the 14th amendment

In order to work for the US government, you must be a US citizen.

You are right. As a matter of fact, the preamble of the Constitution mentions "blessings". Who else gives us blessings but God?\n\n"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America." -The US Constitution

Or this one:\n"I, George W. Bush, promise to protect and uphold the Constitution of the United States, against all enemies, foreign and domestic..."\nto\n"The Constitution is just a damn piece of paper"\nto\nasking for a Constitutional Amendment all within 2 years.\n\nIt must be really difficult to protect something from yourself...

Not in the constitution. However, Article 20 of the US Code covers the topic of requiring an education to children through grade 12.\n\nRegarding non citizens, you cannot forbit them from attending. US Code, Title 20, CHAPTER 39, SUBCHAPTER I, Part 2,  § 1703\nlink: http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode20/usc_sec_20_00001703----000-.html\n\n(Whether that pertains to undocumented aliens is up for debate)

The U.S. Constitution is the basis for all law in the U.S.  It describes the how the government of the Unitied States operates.  It also grants people certain rights.\n\nOf course, the present administration has great contempt for the Constitution.

Section One of Article II of the U.S. Constitution states that the President must be a natural born citizen of the United States (or a citizen of the United States at the time the U.S. Constitution was adopted), at least 35 years of age, and resident of the United States for at least fourteen years.

Interesting question.  ASSUMING you are refering to the United States Federal Government, what article of the Constitution would make it the responsibility of a government committee?\n\nAre you aware that most ADULTS who are homeless CHOOSE to be homeless because of the sum of their lives choices?  Think about that for a minute before you bash me.  I am referring to ADULTS, not children.  Most homeless ADULTS  are "addicted" to drugs and/or alcohol.  They made a conscious choice to take drugs or drink.  Thus, they are homeless because of their choices.

Common misunderstanding, but laudable that you are asking, because it is theonly way we can become self-governed again. \n\nThe U.S. Constitution only grants one right. The fist 10 Amendments, added twelve years later, are called "The Bill of Rights," and are probably what you're thinking of.\n\nA "right" is something granted by law, something you can take to court and win. A privilege, can be taken away at any time at the whim of those few in power.\n\nLike someone in the military has almost no rights. But they have lots of privileges. An underage child has no rights, but has privileges. \n\nThe one test to find out if you have a right, e.g., the case of a child, is to find out if this person or entity can sue or be sued. If not, then there are no rights. \n\nRead the Constitution on my web site listed below, then read the explanation of the Amendments. You'll find that the one main reason for the Constitution was to set up a Federal Gov't, and at the same time, limit their power. Their greatest fear was that the Fed would become more powerful than a State, and rule the States from afar and dictate their laws, and invade our states at will. But of course, that has happened anyway hasn't it, because nobody is policing the police (the Fed) or enforcing the Constitution.\n\nThey tried to weaken the Fed by breaking them up into 3 branches; Executive, Legislative, and Judiciary. If those three ever came together, we would have a totalitarian dictatorship, similar to a King ruling us dictating our every move. For examply, only Congress can pass new law, which represents each State. But the President (Executive) decrees new laws every day by executive order. The courts (Judicial Branch) interpret and change laws every day. So the inevitible has happened; all three branches are acting as one, and nobody seems to care.

Our Constitution is what makes the USA great.  As stated by the people who wrote it, the rights guaranteed by our Constitution are the rights given to us by God, and it is the government's job to see that those rights are not taken away.The United States of America is not only the greatest Christian nation, it is the greatest of all nations on earth. If every country in the world would adopt the US constitution and actually live by it, they would all be much better off than they are under their inferior systems.
