    The female in American Gothic was the painter’s sister, young enough to be the daughter of the male figure, not his wife.

    The New American Gothic:

    Immigrants are Americans. Even immigrants with not-white faces and not-Christian places of worship.

    This has always been at the very center of the USA. It is a central part of America’s Greatness.

    Let’s see, I guess that means you can ignore traffic tickets, taxes, and all other administrative violations.

    “Declaration of Independence”, not the Constitution. Different, very different…

    sure, and often mis-interpreted by people who refer to the Declaration and the Federalist Papers. Both of which are still NOT the Constitution. People like you remind me of the religious zealots who keep arguing that they and only they know ho to truly interpret the bible. Yes Tom, you and only you truly understand the Constitution. We’ll throw out all those scholars who sit on the SC and let you be in charge.

    Trump, “sovereigns” and other nut cases would put the Constitution on the pitchfork, soaked from the blood of true patriots speared through the hearts of democracy envisioned for our Republic. Khan was right, neither Trump nor his “like-minded” supporters, have ever read the document.

    Not true

    There were 55 delegates at the First Continental Congress that adopted the Declaration of independence and 55 at the Constitutional Convention, Of the first 55 only six were at the second. Two different groups.

    And where did you get your weird understanding of the Constitution?

    Not everything you see on television is what it appears to be.

    The U.S. Constitution can be accessed by those who can read.

    The Declarstion of Independence is not the legal birth certificate of the United States.

    .The U.S. Constitution is.

    .Civics 101.

    Dufus Donald had actually claimed that Mr. Khan opposes him because Khan, Trump asserts, is in favor of Muslim terrorists sneaking into the U.S.

    If you dont like the way the U.S. Constitution has been “chiseled away,” then get it amended...That amendment process is found and explained in the U.S. Constitution, not in the Declaration of Independence. .The former is this nation’s tool kit for actual governance. The latter was a notice of secession. .Again, Civics 101..

    Go back to herding cattle with freeloader Bundy.
