Article I Section 2 (#02)

Before we start, let me apologize for not posting last week. I was sick. http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/constitution_transcript.html

Article I Section 2

What it means

Remember the word "prerequisite"? Well, "requisite" means any requirements.
Enumeration essentially means all items in a list.

Those two terms defined, here's what this section means:
The House of Representatives, mentioned in Section 1, is completely reelected every two years, and Electors are required to have any qualifications necessary in order to be Electors (more on Electors in future posts, when I get to the Electoral College). Of course, there are no specifications of how many electors are allowed, or of whether or not the entire population of a province of the United States can be the electors. Just so you know, province is synonymous with state here, as in the state of California. I avoided the term "state" because the technical definition of "state" is country.

Representatives need to be/have been:
• 25 years old
• a resident of the USA for seven years or more
• a resident of the state (again, and forevermore referring to province in this blog) they were elected to at the time of elections

Censuses take place every ten years, and representatives comprise no more than one Representative for every 30,000 residents, and each state gets at least one Representative.
The House of Representatives gets to choose its own officers.

How it's been broken

As far as I'm aware, this section has never been broken. Ever. And it would be pretty obvious if it were.
