【其實，美國總統大選還沒結束、持續在打...】
共和黨還是有聲音認為，是郵寄選票舞弊造成川普落選，所以有十多個州都打算修改投票規定，為通訊投票設下重重路障；反之，民主黨極力跳腳，盛怒之餘，甚至批評共和黨跟以前的種族主義者一樣，都盡幹些歧視的勾當...。
雙方攻防熾烈，一方想以地方(州)包圍中央，另一邊想透過修法讓中央統一規範地方...，感覺，像是看第二輪總統大選的對戰。

你知道美國的「權利法案」是什麼嗎？這是美國憲法的前十項修正案，確認了美國公民的基本權利。新興的美國在1791年12月15日通過了這項法案。第一修正案確保人民的宗教自由、言論自由、出版自由，以及和平集會請願的自由。被稱為「權利法案之父」的喬治‧梅森 (George Mason) ，仔細的寫下這些確保個人自由的修正案。終其一生，他都是捍衛人類權利與自由的鬥士。「權利法案」還確保了哪些自由呢？憲法的十項修正案保證人民有權組織「管理良善的義勇軍」，並能持有武器；人民有保有私人財產的權利；被控犯罪之嫌疑犯有權接受公平對待；免於不合理蒐證與逮捕的權利；免於陷己入罪的權利；快速與公正的審判；以及律師代表發言的權利。美國到現在還繼續增加更多的修正案，以定義並保護人民的自由。1870年通過的第15項修正案就賦予所有美國男性，不論其種族都享有投票的權利。而1920年通過的第19項修正案，則更進一步讓女性享有這些權利。哪一項憲法修正案你認為最重要? 想了解權利法案的內容，請參考 https://ait.org.tw/zh/the-bill-of-rights.html #TodayinHistory
