9.provide 1 example of how the supreme court has changed the constitution. 10.provide 1 example of how congress has changed the constitution. 11.name and describe two methods of ratifying amendments of the constitution. 13.which amendment in the bill of rights is the most important and why? 15.how are our 1st amendment rights limited?

1. One case is when they introduced the ratification time of an amendment. Although it's not specifically mentioned in the constitution, the congress is allowed to give a time period in which an amendment has to be ratified or it doesn't get added to the constitution. This didn't exist before 1933 when the supreme court decided that the congress can have a designated time period if they so desire and the constitution has had this option since then.

2. The congress changed the constitution numerous times through the introduction of amendments to the constitution. When the congress creates a new amendment and passes it, they send it to the states for ratification. The latest amendment that got ratified was the 27th which became a part of the constitution in 1992.

3. The two methods are that a supermajority of the members (two thirds) in both the senate and the house of representatives accepts the proposal, or the second is that a supermajority vote of a national convention called by Congress at the request of the legislatures of at least two-thirds states, which is 34 at this moment. The second option has never been used, but it exists as an option.

4. This would definitely be the first amendment. It establishes people's freed of speech, freedom of press, freedom of religion, freedom of association, freedom to write and submit petitions, as well as prevents the country from enforcing a certain religion on its people through the establishment clause of the first amendment.

5. First amendment rights are limited in cases such as hate speech. If a person spread hate speech which incites or provokes violence then the first amendment might not apply. During various war periods throughout history, the first amendment did not apply to those who spread anti-war messages according to the sedition act and these people would be often put on trial for treason.
