Recently I have begun posting quotes on my Face Book page that I find inspiring and completely relevant to this day from our founding fathers. Remembering what their struggles were and what brought them to this place called America to create a truly unique government unlike any other. A country that has been envied and hated in the same breath. It is something that my father fought to protect by his service in WWII, and others like him that take up-arms to protect us today. My father once said his children were "bookends" The eldest and the youngest were more conservative, the ones in the middle were liberal. I won't tell the entire story so that I don't rustle feathers. Knowing how my father felt about politics, America, service to our country I have decided to post the quotes on my blog as well. I hope you will enjoy, be enlightened, and inspired to take action.
"It will be of little avail to the people that the laws are made by men of their own choice, if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood; if they be repealed or revised before they are promulgated, or undergo such incessant changes that no man who knows what the law is today can guess what is will be tomorrow."-- James Madison, Federalist no. 62, Feb 1788
