I will never forget that it is the people who speak directly through the constitution they have adopted.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
This is a time for a national conversation. A conversation about the document that binds us as a nation and a people. That document, of course, is the Constitution.
We have the oldest written constitution still in force in the world, and it starts out with three words, 'We, the people.'
It is preposterous that the current members of the United States Senate and all of their predecessors for more than 200 years haven't been able to read the Constitution and do what it says.
When they speak about 'We the people...,' we the people have to have a voice. It can't just be the establishment voice.
Our government should speak a common language with the American people - plain English.
It is unfortunate that Americans are no longer aware of what the constitution says and what their rights are. Because of that, we are often very passive about what happens when the government violates those rights.
It's really important that folks be able to speak out.
As we embrace the American dream and the freedoms it represents, we must also ensure that those who wish to enjoy those freedoms become a part of our society and learn to speak our language.
There hasn't been anybody else write a Constitution like Madison. There just hasn't been, because that person hasn't existed anywhere but here.
Let's remember, the Second Amendment has been around for over 200 years.
