The Constitution: A Balanced Government

In this video the Museum's founder Gil teaches what's meant by the U.S. Constitution being considered a "miracle." Gil uses scales and weights as imagery in America having a balanced form of government.

He explains that the Constitution serves as a "standard" not as a living document. The country's founding fathers also wanted a vertically separation. They believed in solving issues at the lowest possible level. You'll see in this episode Gil use a clever illustration of problem solving for kids of all ages.
