Thank you for referencing that article ColdOne. Please note that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

I haven’t had a look at the $1 pocket Constitution. But people need to know the history of the Constitution before its going to do them any good.

More specifically, they need to know the intentions of constitutional lawmakers, key statements in Supreme Court case opinions, and amendments ratified by the states to the Constitution after unpopular Supreme Court decisions.

Out of all to the people who purchase these handy little pocket Constitutions, it will be easy to tell which ones are flaming liberals, because they either can’t read it, have a seizure if they do read it, or just burst into flames when they flip open the cover.

This is the $1 “Best Seller IN CONSTITUTIONS”. Of course anyone looking for a copy of the Constitution would buy the $1 version. Trying to portray this as a “Best Seller” on Amazon is a little disingenuous. This is just more liberal baloney. If the Muzzie can get the U.S. Constitution on the “Best Seller” non-fiction book list, I’ll be impressed.

They could have gotten one free if they had joined the Tea Party ... years ago and they would have had someone available to help sound out and understand the tough phrases like “shall not be infringed...”!

Hillsdale College's Constitution Minute <- Free copy.

I get them from time to time from Cato too. I have a short stack of them, one dogeared and marked up.

If Khan ever read the Constitution he should know it does not cover non citizens. Rapefugees have no rights under the Constitution.

The original version was written in cursive.

Many low information voters won’t be able to comprehend it.

I keep a copy on my desk at work. I display it prominently .

Now Khan can preach to us how to resolve the Koran and the Constitution. Once he firmly makes the case for the separation of mosque and state and disavows Sharia law then he can become an imam and tell all his fellow Muslims how it’s supposed to be.

Perhaps he ought to give it to Hillary Clinton who must not understand the First Amendment's protections:
"“Far too many women are denied access to reproductive health care and safe childbirth, and laws don’t count for much if they’re not enforced,” Clinton said.

“Rights have to exist in practice — not just on paper. Laws have to be backed up with resources and political will. And deep-seated cultural codes, religious beliefs and structural biases have to be changed. As I have said and as I believe, the advancement of the full participation of women and girls in every aspect of their societies is the great unfinished business of the 21st century and not just for women but for everyone — and not just in far away countries but right here in the United States.” (Excerpt - World Summit Address - 2015)

I'll give Mr. Khan the benefit of the doubt. He's emotional about this, and has adopted a number of false assumptions that he's been fed by the press (like Trump policies would not allow him to immigrate).

He's one of those "useful idiots."

Just saying, I'm not at the point of accusing him of bad faith - unlike the press and the party, which are clearly operating in bad faith.

Demoncrats finally discover the Constitution - too bad they have zero reading comprehension skills.

Bet they don’t read but a few passages and really don’t comprehend it in its fullness nor the history of it.

Too bad about his son, but he shouldn’t become a Democrat whore and sully the kid’s memory for money. Wonder how much the rats paid him?

Now, everyone, read the US Constitution and point out the passage that says we must allow unlimited Muslim immigration, even in the face of a national security crisis.

C’mon MSM, c’mon Demagogues, find that passage, you know it’s there.

WHAT?? You can’t find it???? Maybe because it DOES NOT EXIST.

The POS never carried a pocket copy of the US Constitution in his life. That was all a charade for the Demagogues.

The more the Khans tell their story, the more people vote Trump.

I would like to ask this dude, what clause in the constitution does he accuse Donald Trump of violating or misunderstanding???
___________________________________________

He wasn’t there to tell us that...

As you said the Constitution was a prop...

a creditable man would have opened the pamphlet and read the part where he claimed Trump had offended and violated Khan’s rights...

He was accusing Trump but he didn’t bother to give any evidence or prove his point...

Hes a lawyer and he acted like he would in a court room...

He thought nobody would call him out on what he said...

Hes a well practiced educated liar ...that’s how he makes his money...

His wife was a prop also...

and if after TWELVE YEARS she still cant face her sons death or talk about it, then she has psychological problems...and is UNSTABLE...and cannot be believed...

(She claimed in that statement her husband wrote for her that she couldn’t speak because she was too sad...

Why then didn’t the husband say so while they were on stage,...

He didn’t even ask her to speak...)

"I would think teamhil wouldn't want people to read the U.S. Constitution"

You're exactly right. This has been a major backfire for the dRats. The last thing they ever want is for citizens to actually read and understand the constitution, especially after most have spent 12 years in school learning how to undermine it.
