A Quote to Contemplate
The Federalist Patriot Founders' Quote Daily
"As parents, we can have no joy, knowing that this government is not sufficiently lasting to ensure any thing which we may bequeath to posterity: And by a plain method of argument, as weare running the next generation into debt, we ought to do the work of it, otherwise we use them meanly and pitifully. In order to discover the line of our duty rightly, we should take our children in our hand, and fix our station a few years farther into life;that eminence will present a prospect, which a few present fears and prejudices conceal from our sight." --Thomas Paine

I agree GT,there is so much lacking in the teaching of history,too much rewriting and PCism.I had a great history teacher, he tought as to understand and analyze with more emphasis on grasp of the era than memorizing names or dates.
