Necessary Documents

Founding Documents

This sight has all of them, in many formats. If you only download a few:
1. The Declaration of Independence,
2. The Constitution, and
3. The Federalist and Anti-Federalist papers. These are amazing, because you can see the actual arguments and reasons for the parts of the Constitution, before it was written. These alone will destroy almost any argument of the true intents of the founding fathers.

If you can, also get the writings of Jefferson and Washington.

These are the meetings, written by Alexander Hamilton, of the writing of the Constitution. Sounds boring, (at times is), but if you put yourself in the time and the moment, is fascinating.
