Athens, Rome and Jerusalem

The well-educated Founders of America structured the new nation based on the classical literature of Democratic Athens and the Roman Republic that they had studied in college. And ended up with something they never expected. But it worked. And it has continued to work for 250 years. But now our political leaders are rejecting those ideas and principles. In this commentary we look at the sources of America's Founding Principles and investigate why our current leaders are abandoning them.
