American Government

The Democratic Republic As much as I feel that the United States has problems with the politics today, I still feel that we have the best government possible. Our government has had its problems but because of our Constitution that was written by our forefathers, it has been able to evolve along with our society. It is a living document that is as relevant today as it was the day it was written and will continue to protect us in the future.
