1. Respect the Rights, Beliefs and Opinions of Others:

In the era of Fox News and MSNBC, it's easy to forget that we must respect the rights, beliefs and opinions of others — even if we think they're "extreme," "outrageous" or "morally wrong."

2. Stay Informed of the Issues That Affect Your Community:

Watching the news, or reading the newspaper, is actually not a choice. It's our responsibility; whether we think the "corporate mainstream media" is corrupt or not.

3. Serve in a Jury When Called Upon:

Though many see it as a burden, "Jury Duty" is our responsibility to serve as a jury in a legal process.

4. Participate in the Democratic Process:

Next time you're thinking about not voting because "politicians are all the same," or whatever, keep in mind that if you're not happy with the status quo you could — in fact, it's your responsibility as an American — participate in the Democratic process by running for office yourself and offering an alternative.

5. Defend the Country, if Need Should Arise:

It's your responsibility, as an American, to bear arms — or participate in civic service — on behalf of the United States and defend it from all enemies both foreign and domestic.

Answer from: Quest

1) checks and balances- this idea is implemented in the constitution to ensure that no one branch of the federal government gains too much power. for example, the legislative branch(congress) can approve a bill that will then be sent to the executive branch (president). if the president does not like the bill or thinks that it violates the rights of citizens, he/she can veto the bill. vetoing the bill stops the bill from becoming a law. this check on power ensures that congress makes laws that do not violate the rights of citizens.

2) anti-federalists do not want to ratify the constitution unless it includes a bill of rights. the anti-federalists are worried that the constitution gives too much power to the federal government. having a strong central government caused problems when the us was still part of great britain. this is why the anti-federalists are fearful of this type of system.

3) federalists want a new constitution passed because it will fix america's weak political structure. before the us constitution is implemented, the constitution being used is known as the articles of confederation. this constitution has an extremely weak central government, allowing for disunity among the states.
