So I just heard on the radio that tomorrow is Constitution Day. Yeah, like the US Constitution. And in honor of said day, President Bush encourages all Americans to stop what they're doing tomorrow at 1pm and recite the Pre-amble to the Constitution.
For real?!
Do people actually know the pre-amble to the Constitution?! All I know is "We the people, in order to form a more perfect union...."
Todd knows most of it, but that's only because of School House Rock - anybody remember that? I doubt most of the under-25 readers will....
So I'm doing a survey.....how many of you reading this blog can actually recite the pre-amble to the Constitution?
I'm waiting to be impressed.....and I hope to hear you doing your patriotic duty at 1pm tomorrow!!

Thank you 8th grade plays, I can recite the constitution. Before I could get through to your comments I found a nice site that has the constitution. USConstitution.net
we the people, of the united states of america, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, 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.
Yeah...I also observed in a 7th/8th grade classroom last year so I got a refresher!
