History:
-Election day is tomorrow.  Discussion of the level of disgust by voters for both parties, and how elections can show who is winning the battle of public opinion.  Right now, the country is disgusted with the Republicans because of the Shut Down.  And the country is disgusted with Democrats because of Obamacare, so it's pretty much a toss - up at this point.
 
Begin notes on part two - Development of the constitution - We took notes on the first four amendments.  We will continue tomorrow.
