When Benjamin Franklin left Independence Hall just after the second drafting, he was approached by a woman on the street... The woman said, Mr. Franklin, what manner of government have you bequeathed us? And Franklin said, A republic, madam ... IF you can keep it. The responsibility of a country is not in the hands of a privileged few. We are strong and we are free from tyranny. As long as each one of us remembers his or her duty as a citizen, whether its to report a pothole at the top of your street or lies in the State of the Union address, speak out, ask those questions, demand that truth! Democracy is not a free ride. But this is where we live. And if we do our job, this is where our children will live
