Remember the words of Ben Franklin (or was it some other founder): a republic, if you can keep it.

It was Franklin- perhaps his most repeated words of late…… for good reason.

Sometimes I wonder if Franklin had the remotest clue that his words would come back with such force ~240 years after he spoke them?

I think he’d be gratified. Surprised…… but gratified we’d lasted this long.

Same old arguments he faced, now resurfaced and recast in a new vocabulary.

But it’s the same ole same ole. We fought a Civil War and lost over 600k lives over those lies.

I pray to God we don’t have to do it again.
