This is a good place to start. You will find lots of good stuff in plain English that is not taught in law school. Warning: If you are an idealistic sort of person who tends to side with freedom for the people, then this site may be your government's worst nightmare, especially after you read about jury duty, what the legal difference is between being one of the people of the country and one of the citizens, and why we pledge allegiance to the Republic instead of a democracy.
