Happy Constitution Day!
Today is the 220th anniversary of the signing of the Constitution. And, serendipitously, my birthday, but we'll let that be. So celebrate! It's not just Monday anymore.
To get the bad customs of a country changed, and new ones, though better, introduced, it is necessary first to remove the prejudices of the people, enlighten their ignorance, and convince them that their interest will be promoted by the proposed changes; and this is not the work of a day. - Ben Franklin to Alexander Small
We're going to raise the level of public debate in this country and let that be our legacy. - The West Wing
