Indiana National Guard Capt. Nathan Harlan was a high school junior when he paid $7 for a 1788 first edition of volume one of "The Federalist" — a two-volume book of essays calling for the ratification of the U.S. Constitution.

The economy is down but with the haters in office, this might be a good time to put it on the market.

Interesting. It’s ironic considering that every single thing the Anti-Federalists warned us about has come to pass, and more.

	Gods Graves Glyphs	Just adding to the catalog, not sending a general distribution. Indiana National Guard Capt. Nathan Harlan was a high school junior when he paid $7 for a 1788 first edition of volume one of "The Federalist" -- a two-volume book of essays calling for the ratification of the U.S. Constitution. I had the whole collection, but my mom threw them to the curb a few years after I moved out. To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.

True. But the fact is any system has flaws and dangers. If did not have the constitution, I think we would have everything the Federalists warned us about.

Gee whiz...I was never as high-minded as you as a teenager. My mom threw out my comic books and baseball cards...
