The deliberate union of so great and various a people in such a place, is without all partiality or prejudice, if not the greatest exertion of human understanding, the greatest single effort of national deliberation that the world has ever seen. - John Adams, quoted in a letter from Rufus King to Theophilus Parsons — 1788
Say whatever you will about those who framed the Constitution but one thing you cannot say is that these men didn't give us one of the most sterling governmental documents in the history of mankind.
