“Who, then, will govern? The answer must be, Man - for we have no angels in the s…” — Andrew Johnson

Outside of the Constitution we have no legal authority more than private citizens, and within it we have only so much as that instrument gives us. This broad principle limits all our functions and applies to all subjects.

The goal to strive for is a poor government but a rich people.

Honest conviction is my courage; the Constitution is my guide.
