Thomas Jefferson,(April 13, 1743 – July 4, 1826) was the third President of the United States (1801–1809), the principal author of the Declaration of Independence (1776). He said, "I know of no safe repository of the ultimate power of society but people. And if we think them not enlightened enough, the remedy is not to take the power from them, but to inform them by education."

Our current leaders are pushing us straight toward mediocrity at this very time in history. Are you concerned enough to speak up?
Can I help you find something?
