The Original Argument: The Federalists' Case for the Constitution, Adapted for the 21st Century |

Interesting to get more insight into the thinking of the men who created and then advocated for the Constitution.
Disheartening that we've drifted so far away from their ideals, especially since it's mostly been a "creep" and not specific legislation.
It falls short of what it could be. It would have been so much better to have a final chapter or epilogue that gives ideas for what to do now. ⬇️

What is a concerned citizen to do on the 364 days other than Election Day? Some ideas would have been great. (There were a few ideas scattered throughout the book; a concentrated treatment would have been much more effective.) 3y
