Imagine

 

Ch 2.3 we the people

 
As Benjamin Franklin emerged from Independence Hall at the close of the Constitutional Convention on September 17, 1787, a woman approached and asked him what form of government the Convention had produced. Franklin responded, “A republic, madam—if you can keep it.”
 
Imagine 237 years later in the year 2024 that there is a political system that wants to do away with the Republic form of government and replace it with a democracy where the majority rules. When in the history of mankind has the majority ever been right about anything?

Imagine all your freedoms are cancelled and only majority opinions matter. Imagine all government positions are populated by the majority party. Imagine a nation where the majority's moral compass is superior to all others.

Both the Republican and Democrat parties want to be the majority. Every fours years the American people vote for the lesser of two evils. The current government system is the same bird of prey with "right" and "left'" wings. 
 
A democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner. A republic is a well-armed sheep defending his rights.

It's time to restore our Republic
 
Never re-elect anyone. Public service is a brief civic duty, not a career.
