I have also finished "What Would the Founders Say?" Larry Schwei**** takes ten of todays political issues and formulates what our country's founders would have thought. Interesting and engrossing.

This has lead me to re-read the Constitution and dive into the Federalist Papers and the Anti-Federalist Papers. For lighter fare I am also re-reading "The Scarlet Letter" and the Harry Potter series.
First, welcome to Talk of the Villages (TOTV). Also, thank you for the book recommendations. I'm going to look for "What Would the Founders Say?"
