Before the U.S. Constitution was ratified, several of the Founding Fathers wrote papers arguing for certain provisions. These were published in newspapers and became known as the Federalist Papers. Your assignment is to write a modern day Federalist Paper. Imagine your country was holding a modern day constitutional convention and debating what should be included in their constitution. This can be the United States, or if you are an international student, can be your home country. Regardless of the country you are focused on, please pick a component of the American government that is specifically articulated in the Constitution (including the 27 amendments) and argue why is should be included in the new constitution. You can also choose an amendment that has failed, and argue what it should be added.
