The Constitution and What It Means To-Day (Classic Reprint) by Edward Samuel Corwin PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from The Constitution and What It Means to-Day Notwithstanding Mr. Bryce's assurance that the Constitution can be read through in twenty minutes, comparatively few people undertake the task nowa days. This unfortunate circumstance is doubtless to be explained by several reasons, but there is one of these reasons which is of special importance. This consists in the fact that in the course of 130 years the real constitution of the United 'states has come to be something very different from the docu ment referred to by Mr. Bryce. It was the wise purpose of the men who framed the Constitution to avoid what one of them called a too minutious wisdom. Being desirous that their work should endure, they for the most part laid down only general principles. The framework of the new Government was, it is true, outlined quite distinctly, but the real scope of the powers which it should exercise and of the rights which it should guarantee was left, to a very great extent, for future developments to determine.
