| Signing the Constitution, September 17, 1787 |
On September 17, 1787, in the city of Philadelphia, the company of Jefferson, Franklin, and Co. signed a document that has become the foundation of the greatest experiment of human civilization. In composing U. S. Constitution, is is evident that the the Founding Fathers perceived it as a strong bulwark against the religious/political tyranny from which many of them fled and they all vehemently resisted.
Sadly, the inherent principles of freedom, liberty, justice and the pursuit of happiness of the founding document are stealthily being attacked. The attack is coming not from a destroyer from without as many believe, but from a usurper from within; one that the Founding Fathers passionately warned against. But, have they been betrayed? Find out who is the enemy.
