“By the frame of the government under which we live, this same people have wisely given their public servants but little power for mischief; and have, with equal wisdom, provided for the return of that little to their own hands at very short intervals. While the people retain their virtue and vigilance, no administration, by any extreme of wickedness or folly, can very seriously injure the government in the short space of four years.”
- We have given a government designed to have “little power for mischief” with nearly unlimited power for mischief.
- We the people must be of virtue while remaining vigilant to prevent those in our government from causing serious injury to our nation within a four year span.
- This is not a Republican vs. Democrat issue, but rather an American issue.
- It is the responsibility of every American citizen to hold their elected officials accountable for their service to our Nation.
