The Constitution or Cheese Fries?

In Philly you need not choose! This Saturday we had both. Family was suppose to come visit, and because our niece and nephew are studying the American Revolution in school we thought it would be great to take them to the Constitution Center. It has some really great interactive exhibits. You can see if you could vote in a particular state and year, you can wear Supreme Court robes and decide famous cases, and you can be sworn in as president. Plus, they have one of the twenty original printing of the document.

Speaking of delicious combinations, Gigi finally to her favorite constitutional framer, Alexander Hamilton meet. He is relevant to much of the tax debate going on in Washington, especially the case for the nationalization of some banks, for he was the founder of the first national bank. But that’s not why Gigi was excited to see his bronze likeness. No, she’s hot for his mug on the ten dollar bill for years. Apparently, three-dimensional likeness also passed muster …
