The Sunnyland Seminars are funded by the Annenberg Foundation, a charitable trust dedicated to education and, in this case, education through electronic media. This entre dvd series clips right along in top-quality TV documentary fashion. It will remind older viewers of their school days when the constitution and the balance of governmental powers were routinely taught. It will interest people from about ten to ninety years of age. It will start or refresh your knowledge of our form of government and it will build or restore your confidence in it ... not in this administration or that administration but in a government that has spanned the lives of all our administrations.

This disk tells a short story of the writing of our constitution, including some facts that will surprise most viewers. It tells the story of the simple man who changed our Constitution. How he acted without the aid of an attorney, to ultimately gain every person accused of a crime the right to have an attorney provided.

Sit and watch it with your kids. It will lead to meaningful discussion. Something another vampire movie might not accomplish!
