The frontier had no need for standing armies, established churches, aristocrats or nobles, nor for landed gentry who controlled most of the land and charged heavy rents. Frontier land was free for the taking.

They examine each chapter's topic in light of what the Constitution says—or fails to say—about it. Living Constitution boxes are broken down into four components: an excerpt from the Constitution, an explanation of the excerpt, some historical context, and a discussion of how the clause continues to be relevant today, noting recent court cases, ongoing debates, or political challenges related to it.
