As part of the US HUPO sponsored "Alt Proteomics" series highlighting alternative proteomics things, Ben and Ben sit down to talk about the upcoming season.

This conversation provides a comprehensive overview of constitutional law, focusing on the separation of powers, checks and balances, and landmark Supreme Court cases. It emphasizes the importance of understanding these principles for law students and highlights ongoing debates regarding executive power and the role of the judiciary.This conversation serves as the first lecture in a series on Constitutional Law, specifically focusing on the structure of the U.S. government. It introduces the fundamental principles of the Constitution, including its historical context and the concept of Constitutional Law. The lecture then outlines the three branches of government—Legislative, Executive, and Judicial—as defined by the Constitution. A key focus is the doctrine of separation of powers and the interconnected system of checks and balances designed to prevent any single branch from becoming too powerful. Finally, the lecture discusses landmark Supreme Court cases that have interpreted and shaped our understanding of these structural principles.TakeawaysConstitutional Law is primarily derived from the United States Constitution. Its fundamental role is to govern the relationships between the branches of government, between the federal government and the states, and between the government and individuals.The U.S. Constitution was drafted in 1787 and ratified in 1788, taking effect in 1789. It replaced the Articles of Confederation.The Preamble outlines the foundational purposes and guiding values of the Constitution, such as forming a more perfect union, establishing justice, and securing the blessings of liberty.The doctrine of separation of powers refers to the division of governmental functions into three distinct branches: the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial branches.The two chambers of the U.S. Congress are the House of Representatives and the Senate. Article One of the Constitution governs the Legislative Branch.The Necessary and Proper Clause gives Congress the authority to make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution its enumerated powers. This clause has been a source of debate regarding the scope of federal legislative authority.Key powers of the President include serving as Commander-in-Chief, making treaties with Senate consent, appointing federal officers and judges, and ensuring that the laws are faithfully executed.Congress can override a President's veto power by a two-thirds vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate.The principle of judicial review was established in Marbury v. Madison. It means that the Supreme Court has the power to interpret the Constitution and federal law and to invalidate laws or executive actions that are inconsistent with the Constitution.The Supreme Court struck down the legislative veto in INS v. Chadha because it violated the separation of powers by circumventing the constitutional requirements for legislative action, specifically bicameralism (passage by both houses) and presentment (submission to the President).The Constitution sets up three distinct branches: legislative, executive, and judicial.These branches interact through a system of checks and balances to prevent any one branch from dominating.Landmark cases like Marbury, Youngstown, Chadha, Clinton, and Mistretta illustrate how these principles work in practice.The system is dynamic, with ongoing debates about the balance of power, especially regarding executive authority.Understanding these concepts is fundamental for legal analysis in any area of law involving government.The separation of powers framework is designed to prevent tyranny but can lead to gridlock.The judiciary's role in interpreting laws can lead to debates about judicial activism versus restraint.The administrative state raises questions about accountability and the delegation of power.The balance of power has shifted towards the executive branch over time, raising concerns.

This lecture explores the foundational framework of the United States Constitution, focusing on the separation of powers among the legislative, executive, and judicial branches. It discusses the key powers and functions of each branch, the system of checks and balances, landmark Supreme Court cases, and contemporary debates surrounding the constitutional framework.TakeawaysConstitutional law is derived from the United States Constitution.The Constitution serves as the supreme law of the land.The separation of powers divides government functions into three branches.Each branch operates independently but is interconnected through checks and balances.Congress is the legislative branch closest to the people.The President has significant powers, including veto authority.The judiciary interprets the Constitution and federal law.Judicial review is a key principle established by Marbury v. Madison.Impeachment serves as a check on federal officials, including the President.Contemporary debates focus on the efficiency and power dynamics within the government.Constitutional Law is primarily derived from the United States Constitution.

Before we get to our featured conversation this week, I feel compelled to share my annual grievance with you. Again. What is this annual grievance you may ask. It is the endless and ridiculous list of “trends”that many love to create and share at the end of and into the beginning of every new year. Did you see them this year? They looked a lot like last years didn't they? Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. Monogram - It's the details that define Monogram ThermaSol - Redefining the modern shower experience. Without steam, it's just a bathroom. Design Hardware - A stunning and vast collection of jewelry for the home!  - Where service meets excellence TimberTech - Real wood beauty without the upkeep They did. They always do. Now listen, I'm not trying to call anyone out. Embarrass anyone. And, while I am going to point out a few of the ones that caught my attention, and post links in the show notes so you can see them for yourself, I am going to say this again so you understand why I am so non-plussed by the annual barrage of opinions and predictions. It's because they are based on no real data, only conjecture. Here are a few examples; House Beautiful and their Design Trends of 2025 article dated 12.30.2024.  Some things you will see in 2025 include… Kitchens Packed with Color Sculptural Lighting “Drenching” Dramatic Drapery Art Deco Era Antiques Moody Hues Cottage Core Gardens Immersive Bathrooms This all sounds fine, right? But keep in mind that what ends up happening is that clients who are new to this will now ask push designers for this because it came out in a well-respected magazine. The people who pick up on this are “influencers”, those with a large following and very little industry knowledge. Just to break this down a bit, “kitchens packed with color” sounds great until a skilled designer has to employ this strategy with a lifespan of 15-20 years. With a “color of the year”, promoted by 5-6 different companies, all with different ideas as to what that color of the year will be, this is not really feasible. And let's all just remember for a moment that Avocado Green and harvest Gold owned the 1970's and reviled in the 1980's. But, for every season, am I right? There was even an article written in May of 2021by the BBC touting the return of Avocado Green to contemporary interiors. The interesting thing about this, the article I'm referencing was incredibly well written, sourced and delves deep into the science and theory of color choices. But the headline… “Why ‘avocado green' is back for interiors” does imply that the color was back en vogue in 2021. I don't think is was and if it did pop up here and there, not many are still touting it today. And if a client says to their designer that they are going all-in on this and buy Avocado Green appliances, cabinetry or tile, they will be living with it for quite some time. This idea of “drenching” seems completely misaligned with the very nature of interior design. From a vernacular stand point, “drenching” means to get something completely wet, yet color drenching is described as painting every surface in the same shade. Sooooo, monochromatic. Why not just say that? It's funny really, monochromatic ideas have been in popular design styles for centuries and can be referenced back to the Greek word, monochromos, meaning, to have one color. While I have read articles that source the French word envelopper, or “to wrap” with the idea for color drenching. And yet, every year there are many who also tout the end of the white kitchen. But white kitchens also appear on many of the trends you will find for every coming year. The white kitchen is also a sort of “drenching”, is it not? Just to put a finer point on this idea, in November, 2023, an article appeared in Vogue entitled, “2023's Latest Interior Design Trend? Matchy-Matchy Rooms”.

Initial Appeal to Regional Director   - Must file within 30 days of examination   - Regional Director has 30 days to respond2. Secondary Appeal Options (if Regional Director denies)   - 30 days to appeal to either:     - Office of Examination & Insurance, OR     - Supervisory Review Committee (recommended path)   - These bodies have 60 days to respond   - Can request oral hearing with Supervisory Review Committee3. Final Appeal to NCUA Board   - 30 days to file after previous denial   - Board has 90 days to decide   - May request oral hearing (not guaranteed)Total timeline can extend 8-12 months, especially if oral hearings are involved.## Important Considerations- Must follow each step sequentially - cannot skip levels- Component CAMEL ratings cannot be directly appealed, but arguments about components support composite rating appeals- Document resolutions are negotiable- Appeals create an administrative record- Partial victories possible at each level- Success likelihood typically increases at higher levels- "Tie goes to the runner" - burden of proof is on the credit union## ResourcesRelated regulations:- Part 746, Subpart A of NCUA regulations- Preamble to final rule provides important context## Contact InformationFor more information or consultation about appeals:- Connect with Mark Treichel on LinkedIn- Contact Credit Union Exam Solutions*Note: This episode expands on an earlier podcast about the regional appeal process featuring Todd Miller.*

View all cards mentioned in this episode In the second installment of “The Barash Files”, Andy, Anthony, and Zach talk about Cube terminology. They talk about how the language we use effects that kinds of conversations we have which in turn effect the kinds of communities we build. New terminology can enable talking more efficiently about concepts that get condensed into a term, but also make it harder to communicate the nuance and variety in those concepts, potentially making communities harder to enter. Zach shares his thoughts on different parts of cube design, including ideation before anyone touches a card, material choices, what happens during the draft, and in game rules. His hope is to offer new terminology to push the boundaries of what cube designers consider when building a cube.

It is the “most wonderful time of the year,” and Behind the Lines is focusing on giving back. Section 6 of the Preamble to the Texas Rules of Disciplinary Conduct reminds us that “the provision of free legal services to those unable to pay reasonable fees is the moral obligation of each lawyer as well as the profession generally.” This episode focuses on some of the ways Houston lawyers have been taking that obligation seriously and giving back to people in the Houston area who need legal help. Segment One - Hon. David Hittner: "I Wouldn't Trade That One Trial"Hon. David Hittner, Senior U.S. District Court Judge, discusses a criminal pro bono case he had as a young lawyer, including how he went about preparing for a criminal case as a civil lawyer. He also addresses how this pro bono case played a role in his confirmation hearing when he was appointed to the federal bench. The file for the case, Texas vs. Lockett, was recently formally dedicated for public exhibition at the Historic Documents Room at the Harris County Courthouse. Segment Two - Maryam Ghaffar: "My Client Felt So Validated"Maryam Ghaffar, an associate at Beck Redden and the HYLA Pro Bono and Service Committee Chair, discusses a recent Hague Convention case in which she represented the mother of a two-year-old child whose father wanted the court to order that the child's habitual residence was in Ecuador, not the United States. Maryam was appointed to this pro bono case by the Court, and it was a very fast-paced case. Segment Three - Holiday Wellness Break: Finding the Joy(BTL Interviewer Rinku Ray)Melanie Bragg of Bragg Law PC, who is also the co-chair of HBA's Wellness Committee, author of "Defining Moments: Insights Into the Lawyer's Soul" and other books, and cheerful volunteer, leads listeners through a wellness exercise designed to help find joy and reduce stress during the holiday season. Segment Four - Amy Farish: "There's Always Support"Amy Farish, a partner at Yetter Coleman who is also the firm's pro bono coordinator, discusses a lengthy immigration case she and her team handled and  encourages lawyers to try out pro bono service even if it's in an area outside of one's usual wheelhouse. Segment Five - Andrew Lehmann (HVL): "The Legal Issue Was Actually Really Simple"(BTL Interviewer Rachael Thompson)Andrew Lehmann, who runs HVL's weekly Veterans clinics at Michael E. DeBakey VA Hospital, discusses the issues they typically see and how to volunteer, and he shares recent success stories from the clinic, including a tenant's rights case and Military Sexual Trauma claim. He notes that lawyers should not feel intimidated to volunteer at the clinic or even take a case because often the legal issues are simple and the Veterans just need someone to advocate for them using legal skills that almost every lawyer has.

I had intended to do an entire episode with Tiff around the concept of 'turning an idea into a reality' and by the time we finished our preamble, we had taken a left turn at "guess what I did this morning" and thirty minutes had evaporated. All I can tell you is that the unplanned chat revolved around health, movement and ageing, that it was broadly relevant and we had fun.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“It's an actual word, dude, I'd appreciate it if you'd recognize it as such…”   CORROSION OF CONFORMITY's 1994 masterpiece, DELIVERANCE, delivers the sonic equivalent of “Skynyrd Fried Sabbath” covered in ZZ Top gravy that instantly evokes visions of wood paneling, shag carpeting, weed, and November. In short, DELIVERANCE is the perfect soundtrack to fall. Discover the significance of “The Preamble” and understand why its importance desperately needs to be revisited.

Episode Summary:In honor of Veterans Day, Dick Foth reflects on the significance of service and sacrifice for the nation. With insights from history and personal stories, Dick examines the commitment of those who serve both in military and public offices. He highlights the shared pledge to defend the Constitution, the foundation of America's freedom. The episode pays tribute to veterans, explores the symbolic power of Arlington National Cemetery and the Pentagon, and honors those who work tirelessly to uphold liberty.Key Points Covered:Veterans Day and the Purpose of ServiceVeterans Day honors all U.S. veterans who have served, living and deceased, in both wartime and peacetime.Dick contrasts it with Memorial Day, which specifically remembers those who died in service.He reads the Preamble to the U.S. Constitution, emphasizing the role of the military and elected officials in upholding these ideals.The Symbols of Service: Arlington and the PentagonArlington National Cemetery and the Pentagon are two powerful symbols of the sacrifices made in service of the country.Arlington holds the graves of over 400,000 people, mostly military personnel, while the Pentagon remains an active command center for U.S. defense, staffed by over 25,000 people.Personal Reflections on the PentagonDick recounts his experiences visiting the Pentagon and the respect he developed for those in military service.He reflects on the importance of asking, "Have you served?" and the deep sense of dignity and purpose it imparts.The Power of Serving OthersDick reflects on how serving others—whether in a military, volunteer, or even spiritual capacity—fosters a sense of purpose and power.He shares a conversation with Admiral Vern Clark, former Chief of Naval Operations, who emphasized the importance of equipping young service members with training and the understanding that service is a noble act.Jesus as the Ultimate Model of ServiceDrawing on his faith, Dick discusses Jesus as the model of ultimate sacrifice and servant leadership.He explores the biblical perspective on service and its eternal impact, citing passages from the Gospel of Mark.Quotes:Benjamin Franklin: “Where liberty dwells, there is my country.”Dr. Bill Frist: “The valor and courage of our young women and men in the armed services are a shining example to all of the world. And we owe them and their families our deepest respect.”Reflection Question:What does service mean to you, and how can we honor those who sacrifice to uphold the freedoms we enjoy?

Friends, today's episode is a powerhouse! We've got Sharon McMahon, aka “America's Government Teacher,” bringing some serious wisdom from her new book, "The Small and the Mighty." Even the drafters of the Constitution worried about chaos, but they hoped for better things—and Sharon's here to show us how twelve lesser-known heroes in American history made a huge impact on democracy. She's drawing parallels to how we can still shape our future today, no matter how small we feel. Get ready to be inspired, y'all! Let's dive in! In this hope-filled chat: Jen and Amy muse around which historical figures they would most like to meet and we get a glimpse of their preferred election night routines Sharon highlights the arc of her career from an award-winning yarn influencer known as the Yarnista, to a photographer, to “America's Government Teacher” We discuss the need for reliable sources of factual information in a world filled to the brim with fake news and disinformation Sharon explains why we shouldn't sit out during state and local elections We talk about a variety of ways to engage in democracy beyond just voting And Sharon fields questions from members of our audience. *** Thought-provoking Quotes: “We're all tired, we're exhausted from the endless partisanship and the fake news and the disinformation and vitriol.” – Jen Hatmaker “I started noticing that there were a lot of people that were just really confidently wrong on the internet, saying things like ‘the electoral college is a university you can graduate from'.”– Sharon McMahon “There's a big list of people, especially women, who never, ever get the credit when it comes to the civil rights movement – it's the attorneys, it's the Thurgood Marshalls, it's the Freddie Grays,  it's the Martin Luther Kings.,and, of course, what they did is incredibly important but… there are a lot of women with whom this hot air balloon does not get off the ground. There is no leaving the ground without the significant contributions of women.” – Sharon McMahon “We have to stop viewing this as a zero sum game in which our enemies must be defeated or destroyed. That's an onramp to dictatorship.” – Sharon McMahon “There are many ways to be involved in democracy. It's not just voting and running for office. There's not one prescription for how to be involved. Do things you are good at and contribute in your own way. We can't all be parade goers.” – Sharon McMahon “We tend to put all of our eggs in this basket of who will win the presidential election but who gets elected in your state matters so much. The things that really affect your daily life are defined at the state and local level.” – Sharon McMahon Resources Mentioned in This Episode: The Henry Fite House of Baltimore - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Fite_House The Angry Trout Cafe, Grand Mariais, MN - https://www.angrytroutcafe.com/ The Small and the Mighty: Twelve Unsung Americans Who Changed the Course of History, from the Founding to the Civil Rights Movement by Sharon McMahon - https://amzn.to/3NsoqjI Guest's Links: Sharon's website - https://sharonmcmahon.com/ Sharon's Newsletter, The Preamble - https://thepreamble.com/ Sharon's Governerds Book Club - https://sharonmcmahon.com/products/governerds-insider Sharon's Here's Where It Gets Interesting Podcast - https://sharonmcmahon.com/podcast Sharon's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/sharonsaysso Sharon's Twitter - https://x.com/sharon_says_so Sharon's Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/sharonsaysso/ Sharon's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@sharonsaysso Connect with Jen!

Why have we become so obsessed with celebrity and influence? It seems we're infatuated with people in positions of power, with politicians, and with the uber-wealthy. Are they really the difference-makers we believe them to be? In this episode, Sharon McMahon talks about the change-makers that she calls the “small and the mighty”. Sharon is America's favorite government teacher and proves that the most remarkable Americans are often ordinary people who didn't make it into the textbooks. In her book THE SMALL AND THE MIGHTY: Twelve Unsung Americans Who Changed the Course of History, Sharon discovers history's unsung characters and brings their rich, riveting stories to light for the first time. She also hosts the award-winning podcast,  ”Here's Where It Gets Interesting”, and is the author of The Preamble, a Substack newsletter about politics and history.  The change agent, the innovator, the reformer, the disruptor, the mover and the shaker, the get shit done leader might not be on the ballot – it might be someone in your life, at work, in your community. You might be raising them, and it might even be you. So be mighty – regardless of the position you're in.

The Learning Leader Show With Ryan Hawk Full show notes at www.LearningLeader.com My books: Welcome to Management - https://amzn.to/3XWyZAH  The Pursuit of Excellence - https://amzn.to/4eX9vtP  The Score That Matters - https://amzn.to/3zPub7Z  My guest: After years of serving as a high school government and law teacher, Sharon McMahon took her passion for education to Instagram, where more than a million people rely on her for nonpartisan, fact-based information as “America's Government Teacher.” In a time where flashy headlines and false information often take the spotlight, Sharon is a reliable source for truth and logic. Sharon is the author of: The Small and The Mighty – Twelve Unsung Americans Who Changed the Course of History, From the Founding to the Civil Rights Movement. Notes: What did Teddy Roosevelt, Abraham Lincoln, and FDR have in common? The ability to articulate a vision that others wanted to follow. They were great communicators. If you want to lead people, it helps to become a fantastic storyteller. It helps to be able to stand up in front of a group of people and share the vision in an entertaining and informative way. And then execute on that vision. Be a doer. “The best Americans are not the critics, they are the doers. They are the people who went for broke when everyone else yelled to turn back. They are those who know that one becomes great because of who they lift up, not who they put down.” I've never observed anyone, regardless of field, achieve lasting prominence while voicing rancor or focusing much on the failings of others. Create and share, support others, and enjoy. Givers and creators always prevail. - Andrew Huberman Door-to-door sales helps you deal with rejection. It's good for you. When you see a new person at the gym, celebrate them. Help them get acclimated. The Hello Girls -- AT&T -- Pioneer of telephones. They were doing their jobs wearing gasmasks with bombs exploding around them. Echo Chambers – As a leader, what you don't know, can hurt you. Do not surround yourself with “yes men” or “yes women.” You need a diversity of viewpoints. You should feel uncomfortable on a regular basis. You should told you're wrong from the people you surround yourself with. If you're not, then you're living in an echo chamber. Also, pay attention to a broad spectrum of media. If you only watch one news channel or read one newspaper, you will probably end up in an echo chamber. Then develop friendships with people who think differently than you. They're not wrong because they think the way they do. Instead of judging them, why not be curious and learn more about their viewpoint. Gouverneur Morris – One of Alexander Hamilton's best friends and one of our founding fathers. He contributed as much or more to the early republic than Ben Franklin or John Adams. He conceived America's great statement of purpose, the one still recited by schoolchildren. He's the author of the Preamble of the new United States Constitution. “The best Americans are not the critics, they are the doers. They are the people who went for broke when everyone else yelled to turn back. They are those who know that one becomes great because of who they lift up, not who they put down.” I have learned that no one reaches their final moments of mortal existence and whispers to their loved ones, “I wish I had gotten in some more sick burns in the comments section on Facebook.” Advice: "Be the "can-do" person. Have the best attitude in the room. Be amazing at whatever you choose to do. Be the person that others love to work with."

United States history is often portrayed more through myth than historical fact. The true story of America, from its founding rebellion to the present day, is extraordinarily complex. The truth can sometimes seem almost unimaginable due to the numerous injustices and inequities throughout its history. Despite the ideals expressed by the nation's founders in the Preamble to the Constitution—to form “a more perfect Union,” establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure liberty for future generations—America's creation was rooted in systems of class and caste. As discussed in this episode of the Influence Continuum, the idea of a fair system initially created to be accessible to all is an aspect of that founding myth.  Charles Derber, a Professor of Sociology at Boston College and life-long activist has authored 28 books on topics such as politics, democracy, fascism, corporations, capitalism, climate change, war, culture wars, and social change. In this episode of the Influence Continuum, he helped us delve deeper into the historical dynamics of class and caste. His latest book, co-authored with Yale R. Magrass, Who Owns Democracy? The Real Deep State and the Struggle Over Class and Caste in America presents a candid discussion about the hard truths of power and who predominantly bears the burden or responsibility of the deep state. This was a fascinating hour with a true scholar.  Learn more about Steven Hassan and Freedom of Mind Resource Center. Visit freedomofmind.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Changes in the Republican Party’s platform’s planks regarding abortion and marriage riled Christian political advocates who actively sought a minority report with different language. But did they read the Preamble? Today, David explains why he thinks its provisions represent the best of humanistic hubris and explain why abortion and marriage were left to walk the proverbial plank.

In this episode, political theorist William B. Allen, editor and translator of a new edition of Montesquieu's The Spirit of the Laws, and Alison LaCroix, author of The Interbellum Constitution: Union, Commerce, and Slavery in the Age of Federalisms, join Jeffrey Rosen to explore the intellectual foundations—from Montesquieu and beyond—of constitutional interpretation from the founding to the Civil War. They also discuss historical practice and tradition in interpreting the Constitution throughout the interbellum period, and how this history applies to debates over constitutional interpretation today. This program was streamed live on June 17, 2024, as part of our America's Town Hall series.    Resources: • Alison LaCroix, The Interbellum Constitution: Union, Commerce, and Slavery in the Age of Federalisms, 2024 • Montesquieu, ‘The Spirit of the Laws': A Critical Edition, edited and translated by W.

A hedgehog has a single lens. It's more rigid thinking. A fox sees the world through many different lenses. It's more flexible and adaptive. That is a theme of this conversation. Be open, be less judgemental, and be more curious about the way others view the world. “The older I get, the less certain I get of my opinions.” “It's easier to act your way into a new way of thinking than think your way into a new way of acting.” AJ shared that when he was dedicated to the thank you project even on a bad day when he was focused on saying thank you, his mind eventually caught up to his body. Change Your Mind – the founding fathers did this a lot. Daniel Kahneman said, “No one enjoys being wrong, but I do enjoy having been wrong because it means I am now less wrong than I was before.” Be Humble In Your Opinions – Ben Franklin told a short parable. He said, there was a “French lady, who, in a dispute with her sister said, I don't know how it happens, sister, but I meet nobody but myself that is always in the right. The point is that we are all that French lady. We all believe we have a monopoly on the truth. (Remind yourself that you're wrong sometimes) Flexibility of mind: Many of the Founding Fathers were open to the idea that they might be wrong, and more willing to change their minds than leaders are today. At the Constitutional Convention, Benjamin Franklin summed up this open-mindedness: “The older I grow the more apt I am to doubt my own judgment.” Think Slow – There are parts of modern life that would benefit from an enforced speed limit. We need fewer hot takes and more cold takes. We need more slow thinking. Writing in depth letters by hand forced ideas to be more nuanced. Thumb-texting acronyms have the opposite effect. Slow down consumption. Forced self to read the news just once a day. The value of slow thinking: For the year, AJ wrote a letter with a quill instead of using social media or texts. It was a revelation. It led to a less impulsive, slower style of thinking – a waiting period for his thoughts. Embrace Virtue – In the founding era, virtue was a cherished ideal (now it's often used in the phrase virtue signaling which is not a compliment). “A virtuous person puts the interests of others before their one. They focus on those two key words in the Constitution's Preamble, “General Welfare.” We Control the Sun – The sun carved on the back of George Washington's wooden chair at the Constitutional Convention. The sun was cut in half by the horizon. Was it rising or setting? At the end of the convention, Ben Franklin said he was convinced it was rising. America had a bright future (the world is built by optimists) Whether the sun sets or rises on democracy, that's up to us, we the people. In The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin, Benjamin Franklin tells a story about his father criticizing his writing."About this time I met with an odd volume of the Spectator," Franklin wrote, "I thought the writing excellent, and wished, if possible, to imitate it." AJ's goal was to try to understand the Constitution by adopting the mindset and lifestyle of the Founders for a full year. He committed to living as the original originalist as a new way of searching for answers to one of the most pressing questions of our time: How should we interpret America's foundational document today?
