So much ahead of his time!

Now how to make below into constitution:

"No Representation Without Taxation"

"Voter Fraud Is Treason"

I dont necessarily think he was ahead of his time. I think this is just a battle that his been fought for hundreds (thousands?) of years.

So true that this has all happened before. I remember reading about many similar political and societal troubles back in Roman times. Also recall reading on .win about Lincoln dealing with large scale vote fraud.

Now you can vote by scrawling the name of the democrat candidate onto a greasy Arby’s wrapper and dropping it off at your local polling station.

It's in there already. The Constitution says it guarantees to each State a republican form of government. That means it guarantees both those things that you mention.

He was very much a man of his time. He is a product of the enlightenment age. Men who suffered the real consequences of tyranny and developed practical political solutions to safeguard us from it. If we lose this wisdom, our grandchildren will relearn it the hard way.

Our grandchildren won't learn anything but how to be serfs if we fail to do what's necessary.

Other great quotes show that Thomas Jefferson was very pro-White and would be outraged at the anti-White racism we see today.

First, Jefferson openly praised the physical traits of Whites. He wrote of their “flowing hair” and their “more elegant symmetry of form,” but emphasized the importance of color itself:

Are not the fine mixtures of red and white, the expressions of every passion by greater or less suffusions of colour in the one [whites], preferable to that eternal monotony, which reigns in the countenances, that immovable veil of black, which covers all the emotions of the other race?

TJ did not think Blacks were equal to Whites, noting that “in general, their existence appears to participate more of sensation than reflection.” He hoped slavery would be abolished some day, but stipulated that:

“when freed, he [the Negro] is to be removed beyond the reach of mixture.”

Jefferson also expected whites eventually to displace all of the Indians of the New World. The United States, he wrote, was to be

“the nest from which all America, North and South, is to be peopled,”

and the hemisphere was to be entirely European:

“...nor can we contemplate with satisfaction either blot or mixture [intermarriage] on that surface.”

Bro wrote the Declaration of Independence at age 33. I am going to be 33 in a month. Insane to me that someone my age did that.

Thomas Jefferson also spoke classical Greek, Latin, and French. I mean, his gamerscore was shit, but I guess we all have our strengths.

TJ's father died when he was young, he was appenticed to a lawyer and spent his teen years studying and working without pay. He also studied architecture and married, built his home and laid out the best gardens in VA, buried his wife, raised 3 daughters without remarrying, founded and built the University of VA, was the leading expert on North American flora and fauna, launched studies into North American Indian cultures in order to learn from them, wrote and sponsored a bill outlawing slavery in the VA legislature, (it didnt pass), founded the library of Congress with his own books, and many other remarkable things; but one thing he never did was father children with a slave woman. An entirely worthy man we can all be proud of.

as digital is the main method of warfare until 4th box actually opens, we are fighting and holding our ground pretty well against the well funded media.

My money would still be on Jefferson winning that battle, even though he’s dead.
