1. Hi Oliver Ellsworth! 2. I hear that you're married to Abigail Wolcott.

3. I also hear that you worked in the military...my grandpa also worked in the military!

4. I think it's cool that you wrote the first draft of the Constitution.

State why you are calling and the Article and section, or the Amendment you want to discuss.

Why calling?

1. Alright, the reason why I'm calling is because I want to talk about the Eighth Amendment. I think that amendments not true because people should get cruel and unusual punishment. 2. Unless the person is innocent, then they should be free.

3. That's the real reason I called

Article and section or Amendment calling about -- explain what it is in everyday language

1. This amendment is used in everyday life because when someone kills another, the murder gets put in jail. Or maybe even a death sentence.

2. But if someone is accused for being a murder, then they have to go to court to specify if they should go to jail or not.

3. If they are guitly, they are put in jail, if they are innocent, they are free.

Give an example of how we see that Article or Amendment in action today and if it is still working to benefit us?

1Who- Judge, Cops

2What- Court, Jail

3When- everyday

4Where- Anywhere

5Why- It is still working to benifit us/. 6How- People still use it today.

7Keep it? Change it? Why? (We shouldn't change it because it's fine the way it is, and if we change it, there will be more criminals)

So, I really hope you agree with my point of view with this Amendment and I hope people don't change the eighth amendment. Hope to talk to you soon! Bye!
