The men who wrote and ratified the Constitution were intelligent and educated. Compare their educations and general standards of morality to the average political operative now....
I rest my case.
I suspect we would be in awe if we were able to view those meetings.
We have become a more crass society.
They didn’t just plop down a blueprint. They studied and came up with what I consider to be an amazing set of documents that still hold us together today.
It is tomfoolery for folks to talk the Founders and the Founding Documents down. They are still the premier planners, drafters, and documents of any nation that I am aware of.
We are very lucky to live in the nation founded by such men, with documents to protect us and limit governance.
