What I Think about American Heritage

I am bored. And I tired. And don't think I have enough posts on here. I am actually going to email you friends of mine to let you know I have a blog. I need to look at my old posts. I can't even remember what I have written.
Anywho... Since a new semester has started, I thought it would be fun to write a bit about each of my classes. I am in American Heritage right now. I almost posted my notes, but then realized that it didn't make sense to anyone but me. We are talking about the commerce clause from Article 1 of the Constitution. More specifically, we are discussing the case US vs. Lopez, 1995. We are debating whether or not the commerce clause is a valid argument for the gun-free school zone federal law. The court ruled that the commerce clause was being read to broadly, and the federal government did not have a hold on this case.
There, those actually are effective notes. I really like this class. It is easy to be distracted, and some of the reading is way to long in my opinion, but overall it is great. We discuss current events and the founding of America at the same time. Like we talked about Obama to understand who qualifies as a "person" under the Constitution in our days and when the constitution was established.
We have two text books, The Constitution: A Biography by Amar and The Thirteen American Arguments by Fineman. I love the Fineman book. Amar's is very interesting, but also very long and slow. Fineman takes a wide view and makes his discussion of hot debates very useful and understandable. So I reccomend both of them if you like history or politics. But if you don't have much time, Fineman's reads much more quickly.
I might post again later. I want to share the joy of my dorm with everyone. And sorry to everyone I forgot to tell about that. Most no one knows I have this. But I want to change that. So yeah... Talk to you later! :D
