Constitution Day

Constitution Day is September 16, 2016. We put attorney Darren Kavinoky on the hot seat to see if he could pass the American Citizen test. Darren was born here, but we wanted to see if he has what it takes to become a naturalized citizen. He seems to know his “stuff” but we are left with one burning question… Did he say BBQ Peaches? Watch.
