It is the product of years of reading, studying and classifying the thoughts and wisdom of America’s Founders as recorded in many volumes of their journals, letters, speeches, official papers, and other writings” (xvi). For example, we are taken back to the year 1831 when Alexis de Tocqueville visited the United States and we learn about his book Democracy in America which is called “the best definitive studies on the American culture and Constitutional system that had been published” and of America De Tocqueville wrote; “In New England, every citizen receives the elementary notions of human knowledge; he is taught, moreover, the doctrines and the evidence of his religion, the history of his country, and the leading features of its Constitution. In the states of Connecticut and Massachusetts, it is extremely rare to find a man imperfectly acquainted with all of these things, and a person wholly ignorant of them is a sort of phenomenon.” (p82) And so it goes in this book. The role of religion, the role of moral leaders; every principle of self-government from the words of the people who wrote the documents themselves. Faith, unity, sacrifice, triumph, and the principles upon which our system of government relies. This book is nothing short of a miracle itself. If we would only agree to break down its concepts and get them into our schools…we would be much better off.
