You're kidding, right?

The US constitution is short and not difficult at all to read and
understand. Sure, there are interpretations that can be difficult, but the
basic message is something an elementary school kid can understand. That's
when I got my first intro to it.

As far as newly sworn-in citizens being the only ones that understand it ...
Hardly. That constitution of ours is still better known around the world
than just about any other country's constitution. Pieces of it are told to
travelers as warnings, such as to watch out because in this country the
citizens are frequently armed.
