| Civics 101 |
As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, it is part of my religious teachings that
the Constitution of the United States of America - as it came from the pen of the original writers - is a
document inspired by God. Leaders of my church have continually encouraged us to study this
document as an inspired work - and to study it and its meaning as originally written; to learn the intent of
those who wrote this document.
As a home-schooling parent, I created several versions of our country's founding documents which
contained footnotes to explain concepts. Here you go:
Declaration of Independence & U. S. Constitution
Also, here is an RTF version for your e-reader.
