2) The Constitution is a set of instructions from the people to the Federal Government. It was established by the thirteen original states as a delegation of certain specific powers to the federal government so that the rights of the people might be protected.

Writer Randall Hoven has elaborated upon what the president has accomplished in his first weeks in office. This is the short list.
