The U.S. Constitution: How the Founders Actually Built It | Bill Norton

Founding principles are the difference between fixing a problem and just putting a Band-Aid on it. Constitutional scholar Bill Norton joins Jenny Beth Martin to preview an eight-part training series on the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights, launching Monday, July 6.
In this conversation, Bill Norton explains why understanding the founders' principles helps you cut through the rage and emotion of the daily news, find long-term solutions instead of quick fixes, and avoid becoming the very thing you oppose. He also shares the story of Liberty Village, a 30-acre educational site near St. George, Utah, where his team is building replicas of historic American buildings ahead of the nation's 250th anniversary.
Guest: Bill Norton, constitutional scholar, education director at Liberty Village, and co-author of Behind the Bill of Rights and Speaking the Language of Liberty.
Today's topics:
• Why founding principles cut through the noise of the daily political fight
• The eight-part training series on the Declaration, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights, launching July 6
• How the founders built a "mixed form of government," not just separation of powers
