The Founders chose not to codify certain things into law, perhaps falling prey to their own idealistic willful blindness, perhaps feeling secure that the preeminence of the Foundational Americans and their culture will ensure continuity in perpetuity, or maybe they simply wanted We The People to chart a their own Course in History.

I myself am no The Society of The Cincinnati material, but looking back at things that were gained and things that were lost over the course of the past 70 years, cant help but wonder.
