Constitution Day celebrates the day that the Constitutional Convention completed drafting the U.S. Constitution in 1787. Why did it take the Convention four months to write a little over 4000 words? Is the Constitution still working well more than two centuries later? How has the Supreme Court contributed (or not) to a workable constitutional regime?
