We should have all listened to Patrick Henry when we said of the Constitution, "I smell a rat". The Articles of Confederation were and are and always will be the only true charter of this country. The Constitution is a joke set up by the ruling classes to keep themselves in power in perpetuity
They should have listened to Gen Patton when he said the Russians are as bad as the Nazi's and we need to kill them all.
Just think of today's youth, and imagine if this was required of them. They wouldn't go, they would cry and whine about it, and most would be carrying smart phones playing on them.
