1. Introduce the main problem you are aiming to solve, then explain what youramendment does as your opening thesis. The idea is that your proposed amendmentaddresses a problem that you feel exists within the U.S. government & political system,so make sure you identify that problem, give some details and at least a source showingwhy this is a problem, then finish this intro section with what your amendment is, kind oflike a thesis statement introducing the amendment.
2. Explain why this problem you are trying to fix is so important to you. Byindicating this is the amendment you would propose, you are showing the reader that theproblem you want to address/solve is the most important challenge to you. So in thissection make sure to use sources to support why this is a such a big problem, what canhappen it goes unsolved, maybe even point to other countries if they have (or have had)the same or similar issues.
3. A new amendment would need to be proposed by the national government andratified by the state governments. What do you think will be some of the challenges toyour amendment getting proposed and ratified?

Show that you understand the amendment process and tryto be creative of how you would sell the amendment to the stakeholders.
4. What are potential problems or loopholes that could come up with youramendment, and how would you address those?
