They called it a Republic

At the end of the Constitutional Convention in 1787, Dr. Ben Franklin was asked if we had a Republic, or a monarchy, he said "A Republic...if you can keep it".

Now it's not really known if that exchange actually took place, but if it did, this may be the generation that the "if" gets resolved, in he negative. It can, of course, logically never be finally resolved in the affirmative).
