Great post. I often wonder why these details seem so "trivial" to the conservatives today. This is part and parcel of what needs to be taught in our schools to change the direction young people look for good government.

Thanks,

This would be a good class project. Essentially, re-enact the constitutional convention and let kids think and talk about the same issues the founders confronted. Give them the problems and let them come up with the solutions, then compare those solutions with actual history. I'm sure it's already been done, but its needs to be done more often.

Thanks, we all need to be reminded once in awhile about the differences between these two forms of governess. And also to see just how far down the slippery slope we have allowed this situation to manifest itself into what we are dealing with today. I don't know if there is any chance of saving what little is left of the Constitution and the intent of the Good people who wrote it.
