The Constitution is the foundation of the United States legal system. Download this free app to learn about its interpretations throughout history, and like Benjamin Franklin, understand the context of its evolution:
 
“I confess that there are several parts of this Constitution which I do not at present approve, but I am not sure I shall never approve them. For having lived long, I have experienced many instances of being obliged by better information, or fuller consideration, to change opinions even on important subjects, which I once thought right, but found to be otherwise.”

— Benjamin Franklin, 1787
