#185 / Return To The Revolution


This Means US
I have been doing a lot of thinking about the American Revolution, the Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution. I think we got it (almost) right the first time. 

In fact, the Constitution, with a few critically important changes related to slavery, and who counts as a "person," could easily serve as an instruction manual for what we need to do now. 

Emphasis on the "we."
