Like a neglectful car owner who postpones the next oil change, we don’t talk about the U.S. Constitution enough, don’t listen to its hum and sputters enough, and aren’t doing enough to set in order the problems impairing the long-term functioning of a free government.
One of the few institutions where people are talking seriously about what’s up with the inner workings of the country’s constitutional engine is the National Constitution Center. Jeffrey Rosen is a national treasure, a gifted diagnostician of our constitutional malaise. I encourage you to listen as he discusses his new book, “The Pursuit of Liberty: How Hamilton vs. Jefferson Ignited the Lasting Battle Over Power in America”, and then make a million TikToks about it, while simultaneously quitting social media 🙃
