Looking for supporters of election reform. We have a unique proposal but some of you will understand and some may even show support

I do not know this to be true anyone can add words and say it was whoever......

@iamabigbaddude

[mrslagle1]

Great video

[HEYxHEYxCOLLIExTAY]

the voice is verry creepy but this is going to help me with my english homework so thanks! haha

[Sqaaak]

Excellent Video and recitation of the sublime text. Thank you! Truly, Benjamin Franklin, together with Thomas Paine, are and remain two of the most crucial if not THE most crucial of our republic's founders. My only criticism is regarding the music: why the insipid, vapid and empty new-age noodlings? With the whole of the great revolutionary classical movement in music at your disposal, surprising that you did not choose one of the slow movements from so many Beethoven Piano Sonatas!

[TheJoester1992]

in particular, Benjamin Franklin as an elitist. This video, I think, is testament to that.

[TheJoester1992]

This video really sums up of what type of philosophy, in a sense, gov't should strive for.

Not everyone thinks alike, nor should everyone. Compromise is needed. But all of this compromise should hopefully be founded on the basis that everyone has the right to liberty, so as long as they do not harm others.

In today's world, it's easy to see our "leaders" as elitists. So, one would think that the Founding Fathers must have also been elitist. However, it becomes increasingly hard to view

Outstanding and important vid my friend, thanks!.

[tegthethird]

What does the Constitution say? In order to form a MORE PERFECT union.

[wyattmcintyre]

thanks man

[LokiScoutSniper]

Very inspiring. It's good to hear from you again. Quite a mess we've gotten into lately. These words are as true today as then. Maybe we should look back more to learn how to move forward now.

[wyattmcintyre]

Isn't that the truth, his words are so relevant today as we look around and see so many whothink themselves infallible and that they know better than the constitution and 230 years of American History

[LokiScoutSniper]

America and its people are still remarkable to me and we'll find a way to do this life better. This is just our spot in time, a low point be it but also our duty to polish our institutions.

[wyattmcintyre]

America will always be remarkable, and its people are survivors. Still we must be vigilant or we will find ourselves living amidst the despotic regime that we are warned of. All it takes is one generation forgetting.

[LokiScoutSniper]

I for one as a young man won't forget and you might be surprised on how many of us there is.

[RogerOnTheRight]

Where have you been? Good to see you back.

[wyattmcintyre]

Hey Roger, its just been busy. I've been trying to find work, trying to get my writing out there to hopefully make a go of something, and all sorts of other things. Plus I have been taking on a bunch of projects to keep myself busy. How have you been?

[RogerOnTheRight]

I have been terrifical, though a tad occupied. But, in this economy, occupied is good, right?

[souixz]

Great to heart from you my friend! Hope you are well. You have been in my thoughts and prayers. 5 stars and in my favorites!

[wyattmcintyre]

Hey Souixz, its been too long. I hope all is well with you and I appreciate that, all the thoughts and prayers I can get I take :). YOu are a good friend. God bless

[Fringe111]

Hey Wyatt, It's so good to see one of your vida again. Take care my friend.

I loved the way you did this one

[wyattmcintyre]

Thanks, it took a bit of work, but I got every delegate to the constitutional convention I could find pictures for plus the first President, Speaker of the House, Vice President and President Pro Tempore in there. I was happy with how that turned out. :) Hope all is well with you

[Fringe111]

My husband is a PHD in American History. He saw this and loved it.

We're fine, take care Wyatt
