>>You think? Shoot, I find it clearer than most corporate project proposals.

You’re a mature, emotionally developed, formally trained lawyer. Imagine doing this in, say middle school, when civic knowledge and attitudes aren’t fully formed. It’s easy for me to see this assignment as a “Delphi technique” vehicle for a discussion limiting a number of important Amendments—say, First, Fourth, Second, and Fifth. Throw in the Tenth, too, as this is a centrally organized educational program designed by people who clearly favor centralization over leaving any meaningful power to the States.

I think you got me mixed up with RightwardHo. I'm not a lawyer. I'm a copier engineer.

I can imagine it. My brother, who went to private school (I went to public) did problems like this in middle school. As I said, I did this in AP American Government in high school. I don't think middle school is too young to do this kind of thought experiment.

Just my opinion, but I think you're reading too much into it.
