"To hell with your political views and how it lines up with the positions advanced by Madison, Hamilton and Jay. Read this to understand the level of political discourse that once existed, then tear your hair, rend your clothes, and plunge into a pit of despair where your only friends are a bottle of cheap vodka and a dead mouse you name Publius."
"The Declaration of Independence is a beautiful thing. It reads like poetry...of course, that was not exactly Jefferson's intention, but that was my first impression.
My later impressions were that even though the Declaration of Independence sounds like poetry, it's also supposed to make sense and declare independence. And it does that very well indeed. I enjoyed reading this and mulling over the thoughts presented. I can almost hear Jefferson methodically stating his case through his writing...almost as good as time traveling, except without the paradoxes.
Sadly, after I finish a year of American Gov., I doubt I'll have the same warm fuzzies about the Federalist Papers.
*EDIT*
There is a strange yet distinct possibility that the Declaration of Independence will be the *only* required reading from this book...like 200 pages here, and I only read 10...
"Generally good; and certainly convincing at the time; but there are some fallacious appeals (e.g. to popularity or consequences) and certain gaps in the logic (e.g. impossible to limit taxation due to unlimited military need against unknown enemies; however, taxation could have been limited to certain areas, effectively cutting off the redistribution of today before it started, however, it is fair to say that such theft would never have been anticipated by the writers)."
"This is a must read for any American. It will make you think and ponder about the complexities that our Founding Fathers had to address when forming our government. Too many people today comment on what should change in our government structure not appreciating the immaculate architecture the Founders put in place. The government of the USA is one of the greatest achievements in mankind's history. Not something to be tampered with lightly. This book should have a class all to itself in High School or College and be mandatory."
