It put the definition of the amendments into great words, words I couldn´t say or put into form very well. It was short and simple and gave me exactly what I needed.

This was my second favorite. Other websites were famous for helping me understand the amendments and the articles. This website was very good with explaining the branches, Executive, Judicial, and Legislative. Aside from notes in class I also understand the voting process a lot more! It also had the state and local government available to read and learn about which I really liked. It was not just the amendment on this website it was everything else that was hard to find.
