Have you ever re-read a book you read as a child? If so, did you notice things about the book you didn't notice as a child? Did you understand things you didn't understand as a child? Learning is a life long adventure and when it comes to understanding our country's history and government, learning and re-learning is important for civic involvement and civil discourse.
