#1442: "Revisiting The Faultlines In The Constitution"

If we’ve learned anything over the past year and a half it’s that the constitution has some gaps. The United States Constitution has a lot of fans. To hear some politicians and pundits talk you would think it was the most perfect document ever drafted. But when you stop and really look into it, this puppy has some issues.

Today on the Best of Our Knowledge, we’ll listen to a conversation I had last year with the authors of a book for students outlining the many fault lines of the constitution.

And we’ll spend an academic minute learning when red states and blues states got their colors.
