My first experience with the Federalists' Papers was in an American Political Theory class at UC Berkeley. This book makes the argument for a country with limited government in today's language. So many of us do not seem to have an understanding of what the founder's of our country grappled with and how important it is to take care of the beautiful system they devised. An excellent read so far, I look forward to finishing it!
"The Original Argument" is a 'modernization' of "The Federalist Papers" originally written by the founders James Madison, Alexander Hamilton and John Jay to help persuade the delegation from New York state to ratify The Constitution. The Federalist Papers were the basis for the workings and the reasoning for The Constitution by these three founders.. "The Original Argument" lists the arguments for The Constitution and is much easier than "The Federalist Papers" to read and understand.

High quality info. Exposes the liberal Left's hypocrisy and specious arguments for the garbage they are. Gives you lots of "ammo" to dismantle their false dichotomy. Lots of facts and historical background too. No wonder it was a best seller!
