If you want to get a nice head start on Con Law I, now is a good time to read a book I am requiring as an excellent introduction to the Constitution. The book is Paulsen & Paulsen, The Constitution: An Introduction.
It is short and you should read the entire book ( roughly 300 pages) for a wonderful introduction to our Written Constitution. You can pick up a used copy on Amazon for under $10 (I recommend a used copy of the hardcover). Here is a link to Amazon.
The web log for Prof. Duncan's Constitutional Law Classes at Nebraska Law-- "[U]nder our Constitution there can be no such thing as either a creditor or a debtor race. That concept is alien to the Constitution's focus upon the individual. In the eyes of government, we are just one race here. It is American. " -----Justice Antonin Scalia If you allow the government to take your liberty during times of crisis, it will create a crisis whenever it wishes to take your liberty.
