Chapter 1: Introduction: Rebirth of America Through Constitutional Enrichment -- Chapter 2: The Constitution of the United States, Revised and Updated -- Chapter 3: Historical and Analytical Justifications for Revisions to the United States Constitution -- Chapter 4: Why a Constitution is Necessary. Philosophers on Constitutions: Aristotle and John Adams' Defence. -- Chapter 5: The Federalist Papers: Constitutional Structures -- Chapter 6: Specific Topics Under Constitutional Consideration in Aristotle, John Adams, Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and Benjamin Franklin -- Chapter 7: Constitutional Topics in the Jefferson/Madison Correspondence, Common Fears and Worries in the Correspondence and the Federalist Papers -- Chapter 8: Bill of Rights I: The Establishment Clause and the Right to the Free Exercise of Religion -- Chapter 9: Bill of Rights II: The Right to Bear Arms -- Chapter 10: Bill of Rights III: Reproductive Rights and Sexual Non-Discrimination -- Chapter 11: Bill of Rights IV: The Right to Free Assembly in the Workplace. The Right to Establish and Participate or Not Participate in Unions -- Chapter 12: Bill of Rights V: Within the Criminal Justice System -- Chapter 13: Bill of Rights VI: The Right to Privacy -- Chapter 14: Bill of Goods and Duties and Responsibilities of American Citizens -- Chapter 15: John Dewey: Premier Philosopher of American Democracy -- Chapter 16: The Dignity of Human Beings As Members of the Biotic Community.

"This book is one of the most comprehensive and enlightening works on constitutional government I have ever read. Its ultimate aim is to suggest changes in the present constitution of the United States. But in doing so it provides a history of thinking about the nature and significance of constitutions and constitutional government from ancient thinkers, to early modern thinkers, to the founding figures of the US constitution, Adams, Madison, Hamilton, Jefferson, etc. and later thinkers from Franklin to Dewey who influenced the way democracy and constitutional government in the US was understood." -Professor Robert Kane, University of Texas, Austin, USA At this moment of extreme political polarization in the U.S. which has the potential to threaten the very foundations of the state, Professor Michael DeArmey proposes a revised and updated Constitution. This enriched, reborn Constitution retains much of the current Constitution but also seeks to meliorate and indeed resolve entirely many of the seemingly intractable problems in American democracy. The rights of American citizens are revisited and expanded, and for the first time a wholly new Bill of Goods sets out government's role in assisting in the necessities for life. Also new is a Bill of Citizen Duties and Responsibilities. The book contains a careful defense of the proposed changes, including individual chapters focusing on the most controversial topics. Other chapters explore why a constitution is needed and survey the Federalist papers on Constitutional structure. The book also examines the writings of Aristotle, John Adams' Defence, and the correspondence of Madison and Jefferson. Michael H. DeArmey is Moorman Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at the University of Southern Mississippi, USA.
