Never forget...............................
We all benefit from the ability of a political minority to stifle the will of the majority. The U.S. Constitution restricts the power of the majority because an unchecked majority can be just as threatening to liberty and justice as a dictator or tyrannical oligarchy.
-Kyle Scott, leading off this essay
Our Founders created a frustrating, muddleheaded, compromised, gridlock-prone system. We should thank them for that gift every day.
Thanks Craig
