John Adams:"All the perplexities, confusions, and distress in America arise, not from defects in their constitution or confederation, not from want of honor or virtue, so much as from the downright ignorance of the nature of coin, credit, and circulation." John Adams, Letter to Thomas Jefferson, August 25, 1787"
Thomas Jefferson: "There is nothing which I dread so much as a division of the republic into two great parties, each arranged under its leader, and concerting measures in opposition to each other. This, in my humble apprehension, is to be dreaded as the greatest political evil under our Constitution."
James Madison: "If tyranny and oppression come to this land it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy.”
What would they say to a Supreme Court that elected a president?
What would they say to a Congress beholden to special interests?
What would they say to a president whose policy it is to aid and abet dictators in the "National Interest" of "Empire America"--this so called "democracy".
What would they say to the states united that gerrymander voting districts such that politicians choose their voters instead of the other way around?
What would they say to an electorate that permitted all this to evolve as its government edges ever closer to fiscal insolvency and moral bankruptcy in the form of gross corruption?
Is it not time to begin a national dialogue on these critical questions and follow that dialogue with action?
