SUMMARY: The final of a four-part series. In one of his best memos yet, Mayor Petrie tells us why the Founding Fathers created a Republic with checks and balances on tyranny and not a Democracy in which 51% of the people can take away the rights of the other 49%.

Did you know that "democracy" is not mentioned even once in our Constitution or its Amendments? Anyone not knowing that has received an incomplete education and needs to re-read our Founding Documents.

Mr. Petrie's article includes the following key quotes (plus others from John Quincy Adams, Hannah Arendt, Sam Faddis, and Mattias Desmet):

• “Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself.” ~ John Adams

• “Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” ~ John Adams

• What had the Constitutional Convention produced? "A Republic if you can keep it.” ~ Benjamin Franklin to Philadelphia Grande Dame Mrs. Powell

So the next time someone wails about "saving democracy," please laugh and send them "somewhere" (probably NOT a government school) for a real education.
