How to Keep the Republic: What you Need to Know

At the conclusion of the Constitutional Convention in 1787, Mrs. Eliza (Elizabeth) Powel asked Ben Franklin what form of government the convention had cooked up. Franklin famously answered: "We have given you a republic, if you can keep it." "Keeping it" is the job of every citizen. Today, politicians and the media find advantage in dividing us up into segments, creating disagreements. This book shows us what our common agreements are and how we can work together. Our prosperity as individuals and as a group depends on this understanding and our recommitment to its principles!
