When the 1787 Constitutional Convention began in May, 1787, the citizens who gathered there collectively reflected both internally and with the extraordinary document the produced, the promise of the vision they sought to realize: a government that served the rights and needs of the People.
The result of their collective effort reflected the hunger for liberty and freedom stated in the Declaration of Independence, and won with blood and lives in the Revolution. Tired of tyranny, the Founders knew very well the history of Mankind, and wanted a government that could lead without oppression of the People.
They came prepared to express their thoughts, to discuss, argue and enact, and that is exactly they did. The Constitution stands as proof positive of how liberal, conservative and independent thought can work together for We The People.
The Founders wanted what had never been but an idea and a theory in their books and a dream in their hearts, a living, breathing process new to the world: Democracy.
Whether you are a high school or college student, a lawyer, an engineer, a retail sales clerk, a doctor, a physical therapist, a nurse, a software developer, even a politician, you are a citizen of the United States of America. Your role and obligations as a citizen of this great Republic are no different than that of the 55 men who gathered in Philadelphia 225 years ago to begin our Magnificent Experiment in Democracy.
The game of Democracy is definitely still on.
