There's a difference between being intelligent and being smart. Bush undoubtedly is less intelligent than Jefferson was..........yet is the president of the largest super-power in the world............which is something Jefferson never was.

How does that make Bush smarter?

One knock on Jefferson: Dressing up in tights while prancing around and singing joyous, patriotic melodies...might not always be the best way to leave your mark on history.

Speaking of colonial fashion...wasn't it dangerous for guys to be carrying gun powder and their muskets near such flammable clothes? Ever thought about that? I mean living in the wildernes they had to carry all that stuff with them.

just the way it was then

And people say we're living in dangerous times. 😛

we do?

And, if we're going to start pinpointing grammar, I would be quick to point out that trying to read the original Constitution is...trying.

When did we start pinpointing grammar?

And anyways, you may be right that the original Constitution has some poor grammar, but I always assumed it was hard to read because of the outdated writing style, not because of poor grammar.
