POST #1, PART 2: FINAL SELECTION

I've really gone back and forth over this.  I really wanted to do something on the history and future of animation or possibly more specifically the history and future of Disney Animation, but I just couldn't find the hook to make it work. Where could I go with it, it seems like it could be too open of a topic.  So it was time to move on.
   Another topic I'm very interested in is history.  Having just recently completed an American Government class, i've decided to go with the history and forming of the Constitution.  I find this subject to be fascinating, and certainly something worthy of writing about. I am somewhat familiar with the basics of the constitution, it being birthed upon the ashes of the failed Articles of Confederation.  I know of how it was based on the writings of John Loche.  
I am someone who usually casts a non-accepting eye towards the Government, but not because I don't believe in America, I just disapprove of how it works sometimes.  In the Constitution, the founders constructed a Government that works great, on paper.  I might try to fit some of that in there somewhere.

A close analysis of how the Consitution (and Declaration of Independence) is based on Locke's work would be very interesting.
