He said if anyone wanted to dissolve the --Union-- or change its (Republican) form, they can stand undisturbed--let me paraphrase here--because only a blithering idiot would suggest it.

LOL!! Just read this and it goes to show your true knowledge of the Founders. Jefferson influenced the Kentucky Resolution(which stated that Kentucky at any time could pull out of the voluntary union if they so wished), and Jefferson urged Virginia to invalidate the federal Alien and Sedition Acts because he felt the federal government was overstepping its bounds.

Sure sounds like a man that union is overwhelming of all to me < /sarcasm>

Well, Jefferson had nothing to do with framing the Constitution.

Too, the quote at issue plainly says people who want to consider dissolving the Union may be left alone because reason will correct such errors. Your position, as usual, is a joke.
