The Founders misunderestimated the capacity for modern politicians to misconstrue something when it is politically expedient to do so. Senator Pat Roberts has not been an inhabitant of Kansas for 40 years, but he has persuaded the political powers of the state to deem him one because he comes back to Kansas whenever he has an opponent. His words.

the founders tried to prevent corruption but failed...or is it we the people have failed by continuing to vote in lifetime politicians instead of statesmen.

we had a good run but we may have lost the republic to self serving greedy power hungry politicians. I suggest a new representative try to pass a bill to install 1000 new lamp posts in DC and public stocks and a memorial to the French guillotine as a reminder to those who would be kings and queens.
