[Wow. Rep. Johnson actually said that. I don’t think he would qualify as one of the intellectuals Mr. Madison references.]

Hank Johnson who feared stationing 8,000 Marines on Guam could cause the isle to “become so overly populated that it will tip over and capsize."
The Marines (including my father) have "been there, done that."
It's safe to say Johnson doesn't have a feckin' clue!
