On your recommendation I found Washington’s farewell address and it is very long and written in an old style of English that is very hard to read.

Wondering if you have a translation or analysis of the text you can recommend reading. Looks like there’s a lot of good lessons in the text about the dangers of political parties, treaties, and the other stuff.

Cordially, poconopundit

“... written in an old style of English that is very hard to read.”

Please tell me you are being sarcastic. Please. I don’t want to have to insult your intelligence.
