1st Amendment(Freedom of Press)

Constitutional Connection: First Amendment:"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;...or of the press"

Analysis of the Connection: On the URL, that is cited above, above says that the press used to like President Obama, but fell out of love with him because he is not keeping his promises. The press stated "Day-to-day interaction with Obama is almost nonexistent, and he talks to the press corps far less often than Bill Clinton or even George W. Bush did. Clinton took questions nearly every weekday, on average. Obama barely does it once a week. Read more: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0410/36454.html#ixzz0mWWOIw00." I really do not believe that President Obama would have tried to forget about them because he is mean. He may have just have been very busy, and didn't have enough time to have a press conference with them. He has a lot of more responsibilities than most of the other presidents. He came in to be President of the United States of America at its lowest time. The United States is in dept with other states and cities and has no jobs for the people who is legal to live in the United States. On top of that illegal immigrants are coming over to the united States and making it harder for us to get jobs. So, after all of that stuff to deal with, I think that President Obama doesn't have a lot of time to spend talking to people. The press needs to get over the fact that they are not a lot of attention, they are not little kids. They do not need one-on-one attention.

1st Amendment (Freedom of Speech)

Constitutional Connection: First Amendment: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech"

Analysis of the Connection: Freedom of Speech is important to everybody in the world. Everybody can talk, but some people are scared to speak up for what they believe in. NOT ALL PEOPLE ARE THOUGH. Everybody that is a somebody should know who Martin Luther King Jr. is. Martin Luther King Jr. is one of the greatest man in the world. He was activist and prominent leader in the African American civil rights movement. His main legacy was to secure progress on civil rights in the United States. He is the person who wrote the famous :I have a Dream" Speech. If the United States did not have the freedom of speech he would have not been able to say that speech to all of the people who came to listen to him. That speech changed the world in so many ways. Thank God that we was able to speak it and not have to go to jail. GO FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

Constitutional Connection: "Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court."

Analysis of the Connection: if you are for the United States you should stay with the United States. People Should not go jumping back and forth from different sudes of the war, or the street. It is just like fighting for your family. Will you really leave your family and fight against them. I think not. IF YOU ARE NOT WITH THE UNITED STATES, YOU ARE AGAINST THE UNITED STATES.

Executive Branch (Article II #2)

Constitutional Connection: Article II, Section 4: "The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors."

Analysis of the Connection: I support Impeachment of presidents if they did something that they had no right to do. If you look and study the cartoon above you will see that they are changing the truth to fit them, and is not telling the whole truth to the American People. They should be impeached because they are telling lies and that is a high crime in my eyes. They are deceiving the American people and telling them wrong.

The funny thing is that Obama has only been in office for a little over a year but people has already made political cartoons about him and crazy pictures about him. Plus, some people want to impeach him to. That is crazy. I believe im impeachment when a president does somethinmg wrong, but Obama hasnt even had enough time to mess something up. I think people needs to leave him alone.

Legislative Branch (Article I #2)

http://www.midnightbeach.com/jon/US-Constitution.htm#1

Constitutional Connection: Article I, Section 5: "Each House may determine the rules of its proceedings, punish its members for disorderly behavior, and, with the concurrence of two thirds, expel a member."

Analysis of the Connection: Each House should not be able to make up their own rules for their house. Now, I understand that each House has a different situation and a different perspective, but that does not give them the power to make up their own rules for punishing one of their members. Each House should have the same rules, and have the same consequences.

Judicial Branch (Article III)

Source:"Victories - Exposing Corrupt Judges" April 16,2010

Constitutional Connection:
Article III, Section 1: "The Judicial power of the United States, shall be vested in one Supreme Court, and in such inferior courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The judges, both of the supreme and inferior courts, shall hold their offices during good behavior, and shall, at stated time, receive for their services, a compensation, which shall not be diminished during their continuance in office."

Analysis of the Connection:
The Judicial Branch is in charge of the courts and enforcing the laws of the United States but not all of them are professional. Some judges are taking illegal sick days so they can get paid. For example "Judge Patrick B. Murphy of Alhambra who was thrown off the bench for collecting $133,000 salary while attending medical school in the Caribbean. The Judge missed a total of 157 days of work in 1999 alone - 400 days since 1996. In may of 2001, a commission to investigate Judged Murphy charged him with 'persistent failure or inability to perform judicial duties' as well as failing to give precedence to his Judaical duties and making false claims of illness. Judicial watch bring to light Murphy's transgressions. On May 10' 2001, the commission voted unanimously to remove Judge Murphy from the branch." ("Victories - Exposing Corrupt Judges. A judged should not take bribes from anyone no matter how much money they have or how cute they look. Judges should be a big part off helping us clean our neighborhoods and making the streets safe for the next generation. As you can seen from my blog we are suppose to follow laws, but how could we follow the laws if the judges are not following the laws theirselves.

Executive Branch (Article II)

Source: "Securing Senate votes to ratify START is no sure thing"
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0410/35816.html

Constitutional Connection:
Article II, Section 2: "He shall have power, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to make treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, shall appoint ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls, judges of the Supreme Court, and all other officers of the United States, whose appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by law..."

Analysis of the Connection:
The Constitution states that the President of the United States can make decisions, like treaties, but with help from the Senate. Some people will say what is the point pf having a president if he cant make the important decisions. I believe that the president should not have all the power of the United States. That is too much power for anyone to have. President Obama may have some strong feeling about a particular situation and would like to do something about it. He would have been able to do something outrageous if he had all the power of the United States.

Legislative Branch (Article I)

Constitutional Connection:

Article 1 Section 2: "The number of Representatives shall not exceed one for every thirty thousand, but each state shall have at least one Representative; and until such enumeration shall be made, the state of New Hampshire shall be entitled to choose three, Massachusetts eight, Rhode Island and Providence Plantations one, Connecticut five, New York six, New Jersey four, Pennsylvania eight, Delaware one, Maryland six, Virginia ten, North Carolina five, South Carolina five, and Georgia three."

Analysis of the Connection:

Well I always hear that people should have the same rights. Women should also get the same amount of money as man do. People should be able to do what they want to do and go where they want to go. Since people want the same rights on a lot of different subjects, I believe that each state should have the same amount of Representatives talking for them. Other states do not need more representatives just because they are a bigger state, their voices will still be heard if they had two people instead of eight people.
