About The Author
This is awesome Ned. Not only do you give the history of the Convention, you set the scene for what the rest of life was like at the time. Very easy to listen too and it has a lot of information I’ve never heard! Can’t wait for the next one.
Cool. Just want to make it alive and become real to people. I asked myself if I wanted people to read the Constitution and understand it, where would I start? Well, I’d start at the beginning.
Ned this is fantastic and I love it. Thank you brother…
This is fantastic and exactly what I’ve been saying every American needs to go to and learn about, so they can see just how far off course Washington has gone. We are just about ditched…
I’m going to put this on my 2 websites, Face Book, Twitter and email it to everyone I can…
Again ~ Thank YOU, Mark Voss in Houston
