“Well, Doctor, what have we got—a Republic or a Monarchy?”
“A Republic, if you can keep it.”
-- attributed to Benjamin Franklin, as he left Independence Hall after the close of the Constitutional Convention of 1787,
It is obvious. They knew that it was up to us to fight for it. Instead, we are fighting for oil and world supremacy.
Recall that much of our early history was about if we should be more or less isolationish. About if we should seek any Imperialism. Obviously we have made many, many wrong choices along the way.
While I agree with part of your opinion, where have we "fought for oil" and "world supremacy?"
America is great because it IS supreme. Period. Find me another country better.
And are you going to say we went to Iraq for Oil? Show me where we took ONE DROP of oil, paid for or stolen.

Be that as it may. Only about 3% fought for and believed in the ideals represented in the constitution. Most people would not fight for it no less lay down their lives for it.

I just had to share this report,it makes sense our founding fathers..... nothing new under the sun
Unless one understands the original intentions of the Founding Scoundrels who met in secret conclave in 1787 to conspire against the freedoms of the American people, one KNOWS NOTHING....
