The Bill of Rights is an official document mainly written by James Madison to set limits on what the government can and cannot do primarily in regard to personal liberties. 10 amendments make up the Bill of Rights. This document has stood as a guideline for the government for over 200 years, and will hopefully last for generations. Most people do not know, but the Bill of Rights was greatly influenced by the Virginia Declaration of Rights. The US Bill of Rights still to this day remains a powerful symbol of freedom, culture, and justice. Now the Bill of Rights is on display at the National Archives in Washington D.C.
