Reviews
On Jun 17 2021, a reader said:
Heavily propagandist edition of the U.S. Constitution. Missing Constitutional Amendments 11, 12, 14, 15, 17, 18, and 20 through 27 rendering this edition an incomplete copy of the US Constitution.
Includes Hilary Clinton's acceptance speech of her Democratic candidacy in 2016 a failed candidate while excluding Donald Trump's acceptance speech of his Republican candidacy as well as his Inaugural Address as President.
The opening introduction expressed a political opinion on the First and Second Amendments that are out of context and modernist.
This particular edition is also printed in China which casts doubt on the integrity of intention by the publishers.
All in all due to the editing out of parts of the constitution itself, the inclusion of speeches by some political figures and the exclusion of others, as well as the printing origin and publication sources I do not recommend this edition for scholarly use by professionals or constitutional law students. Find a complete edition which can rightly claim to be copy of the United States Constitution and avoid purchasing this one.
