Sigh. [View all]

It is done. Benjamin Franklin, upon the creation of the Constitution, advised our founders that they had birthed a republic ... “if you can keep it.”

Well, here we are, 233 years later, and our republic continues to survive. Under the 46th President of the United States, Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr., I look forward to seeing it thrive.
