it grants us freedom of speech and freedom of press, it grants us privacy, so police don't come barging in without a search warrant for a specific reason. abolishes slavery, limits the president a certain amount of years he can be elected into office, establishes the voting age. so everyone can vote, as long as you are 18 or over. defines citizenship and deals with post civil war issues.

when you think about it, it grants us a lot. it gives us more freedom then you would have expected. if it weren't for freedom of speech or abolishing slavery, where would America be? we wouldn't be anywhere. we would be still living in slavery, not being able to speak up for ourselves without getting beat or even worse, killed.
