  Growing up, I had replicas of the U.S. Constitution, the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights tacked to my bedroom wall. Other kids had Pearl Jam posters; I had Washington and Lincoln, the Gettysburg Address, and the American flag.I got them during my family’s first visit to Washington, D.C., a trip that meant the world to me. I could’ve sat in the Senate and House galleries all day if the rest of my family weren’t bored to tears. We saw just about every monument.
