These documents - devised by the forefathers of america - Very important to the folk (approx 350 mill) thereof.
Not a single human (7.4 billion) being has (Less US pop - 250 mill literate/sobre, etc) ever read/cared about the contents therein.
Is that important, in any way? 7.2 Billion people have better/more functional issues to care about.
Are you aware of this?
Cheers.
Have a nice day.
Ditto. I am not sure the entire world needs to read these documents though. Not sure why a farmer in Thailand would much care about our founding documents.

What McGentrix, you haven't read the Thai founding documents?

I've read them, of course--both of them. Because that's only two documents, the declaration of independence and the constitution. The declaration of independence does not bind the people or the government of the United States in any way. The "bill of Rights" is simply the first ten amendments of the constitution and therefore a part of the constitution.
Mark Noble is convinced of his own intellectual superiority (ah-hahahahahahahahaha . . . ) and like to take the piss, as those silly Angle-ishmen like to say.
So much is stated about these documents - In movies, media, news, etc - Might be nice for us (outlanders) to be told why?
Any monkey can read them - But, how/why is so much sensationalism attached to them?
Do all americans live by their holy words, or not?
I cannot stream/view video via my conduit (PS3) browser.
Can you not type a response? Given the time and inclination to do so, of course?
10 responses - No information, whatsoever, cheers folks.
You read the thing, or what?
You are asking about why our founding documents are mentioned in movies?
I am a bit curious about what you mean by living by their "holy words". The Declaration of Independence is a historical document, a letter to King George complaining about conditions at the time. It doesn't have any bearing on modern Americans (other than that we don't sing "God save the Queen" any more).
The Constitution consists of rules on how our government is run and the rights we have as citizens. It doesn't have any bearing on how you or I should act unless we have been elected to a national office.
