Audiobook: Madison's Notes of Debates in the Federal Convention of 1787

Posted on 07/04/2014 7:27:56 AM PDT by ProgressingAmerica
Happy Independence Day everybody!
I would like to introduce my largest project to date: Attempting to put together one voice per Founder in the most important debate in American History.
The most important debate which nobody has ever heard. We are going to make sure people can finally hear it. You can listen to as well as download the files, here.
This is still very much a work in progress. I do not believe it is enough that people can read these notes, nor think that simply making the notes easier to read is enough. Given how they are written, it should not be surprising that any time I ask people if they have ever read them the answer is no.
These are powerful words. They need to be heard, they were meant to be heard. I am willing to put in as much effort as is necessary to complete the convention.
TOPICS: Announcements; Constitution/Conservatism; Culture/Society

June 30th and July 2nd are now up.
The first full month is now complete. (Technically two, but May was only a week) That puts us somewhere around 40%. But who’s counting.

I appreciate that. I think that when this is finished we can make a real difference.

Would it be possible to publish the Notes as a podcast? Might expand the audience. Not difficult to do, and I’d be glad to work w/ you on it, even host it.

Yes, several solutions like that are being considered.
Once this gets closer to completion let’s discuss.
