Are you an American for heaven sakes? I don’t care for John Adams ? Seriously, how could you say such a thing? There would be no United States were there no John Adams. Egad. Praise God he was there and had the stones when it mattered.

I care lneither for the Alien and Sedition Acrs nor for John Marshall.

Would that Jefferson had followed Washington.

And I am an Anerican, traceable right back to the Mayflower Compact, though by the time of Adams my ancestors were hanging out with the likes of Ethan Allen rather than hobnobbing with the best of Boston. In the end Adams and the Green Mountain Boys parted company politically—helping to cost Adams re-election when the election was thrown to the house.

No response to my 146? Do you like Marshall and the Alien and Sedition Acts? To quote a different Adams, “May your chains lset lightly upon you.”
