Ep. 315 | Constitutional Chats Podcast | Christopher Burkett | Breathing Life into the Law: How the People Ratified the Constitution

"Consent of the governed."  It's such a powerful phrase in our Declaration of Independence and truly speaks to the heart of the American Experiment.  But what does consent mean?  To dive into this notion of consent and how it is derived and utilized in the creation of our founding documents, we are pleased to welcome long-time friend of Constituting America, Professor Christopher Burkett.  Dr. Burkett is an associate professor of political science and director of the Ashbrook Scholar Program at Ashland University.
