Stand Up Citizen
As we approach the 2020 election, a podcast for ordinary citizens to help sort through our fractious politics, and their distorting effect on how we make our choices.. A non-partisan look at American first principles - not an academic exercise, but a reminder on what our founders intended and expected of us as citizens. Founding documents will refresh our civics IQ, so we can look critically at our current issues. Think of Stand Up Citizen as civics for grownups.

Episode 3
Setting the stage for the creation of the Constitution, this episode gives background and context for how the framers created our Constitution. It is about the times and events that affected them, what influenced and concerned them, and some of the main challenges they wanted to handle when making the Constitution. An overview of their objectives in designing the document will I hope lead listeners to read the document and realize our good fortune.
