Now, I understand why it is important to trust and respect these institutions and figures. We have to believe in something, since much else in American history is now revealed to be quite embarrassing in the eyes of the whole world.

The same men who thought and asserted they could uphold E Pluribus Unum while holding and fathering slaves?
