The Constitution: An Introduction is a great book. One of my law professors wrote it with his son (started while the son was in high school, finished when the son was in college). It's relatively short and intended to be, basically, a primer on the why, how, and what of the constitution. It's written for the intelligent but the non-legal person, and Prof. Paulsen is a wonderfully engaging speaker (which comes across in his witty writing). I seriously loved this book. I cannot oversell it for non-nerdy people, but I'm a nerd like that who gets really excited about accessible and exceptional information.

That being said, if you're trying to get informed politically, you'll need to understand economics. Every law affects economics in some way (modification of behavior is an economic issue). People elsewhere have provided some good sources for binary partisan (i.e., bi-partisan) perspectives, but I'm also going to suggest some non-binary thinkers and economists.

The following are relatively short and more entertaining while still exceptional introductions to economic issues (and therefore political issues):
The Law by Frédéric Bastiat; Eat the Rich: A Treatise on Economics by P. J. O’Rourke This one is hilarious and informative; and Free to Choose, the book or the 10-part video series. Also, check out Hayek and Ludwig von Mises. I don't have specific books for them.

Good luck, and happy reading! I've learned that so much of getting informed is talking (actually talking, not just texting or typing in online forums) to process issues. Welcome to the journey.


EDIT: formatting, because I've never posted with hyperlinked sources before. :-)
