What is wrong with you? You responders that always have something to say? It's all very nice to examine and re-examine your Declaration and Amendments. But Frederic Bastait deeply influenced the fathers of your Constitution. It's sad and tragic that you don't recognize this as the beginnings of the American Revolution. These were stirrings that began the French and Indian Wars. These same Generals later died at the battle of the Plains of Abraham; Wolf and Montcolm were both deeply involved in that conflict. You should not cut your history off at your borders and you should remember those that helped form your country - especially at the time when it was at its weakest.
