When I was growing up, civics was part of my school curriculum. And it was more than just "Our federal government has three branches, and they are Judicial, Legislative, and Executive." We learned why federal government was set up that way.

These days, I find youth to be woefully ignorant about these and other matters of importance to all of us. Let's put civics back into the schools.

I also think that the essential documents of our nation should be easily available to all. For example, why not set up a Constitution.gov website that offers the text of our Constitution, Declaration of Independence, etc.?
