A lot of the founders spoke of how it was only as good as its people and the freedoms we would enjoy would only be good as long as the people understood it and kept it. Washington fretted about how long it would last and thought there would eventually come a day when we would turn as a country. That day has come and the people of today will come to realize they have the blood of this country’s sacrifice on their hands with what they’ve done.

“The highest glory of the American Revolution was this: It connected in one indissoluble bond the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity."
