Consider the following questions:
1) What is so distinct about the American governing structures and institutions compared to other systems around the world?
2) Why has the U.S. Constitution lasted so long and do you believe the Constitution should be interpreted with the times as a living document or should it be adhered to as originally intended by the Founders?
3) Discuss the process of amending the Constitution and provide a specific example (either successful or not) to explain this process (you can use outside sources to discuss an amendment).
