United States Constitution in xml and JSON

This is a beta version of the US Constitution in xml and JSON. A website using a version of this file can be found here http://www.harrysurden.com/projects/visual/USCode_D3/constitution/US_Constitution_Tree.html

For the US Constitution in XML The individual articles, amendments, and contents are labeled in xml format.

The different levels of the xml hierarchy are: 'document part article (or amendment) section (optional) paragraph content

The text of the Constitution parts are located in the elements.

The JSON file is hierarchical, with each sub-part located in the "children" element.

For instance, you might have something like (some parts omitted): {"name":"part" "children":[ {"name":"section 1"} {"name":"section 2"} ] }
