Pocket U.S. Constitution – $30

If your friend is a political science or history major, they’ve probably had a moment when they wished they could whip out a Constitution and point out the sections that back them up in a political argument. With this mini version, they can do just that and carry the country’s founding document in their back pocket to refer to daily.
