Abstract: Constitutional law is a relevant subject for both law students and non law students. Aspects of constitutional law are intertwined in most of our everyday lives, which is why it is such an important area of law to study. In some ways constitutional rules of law are on a level above other rules of law. One of their main functions is to set limits on the other rules – limits that cannot be removed by presidents, governors, legislatures, or simple democratic majorities. Constitutional rules are also of special interest because they often reflect, or are responsible for some of the most important aspects of American life today. Constitutional law is not only different from other law in terms of its level of importance, but it is also a difficult and controversial subject. Studying Constitutional law affords students a chance to apply principles and logic to some of the most important and interesting issues that face society.
