The author traces the most important and wonderful events that have graced the annals of mankind, using them to demonstrate that a free people…can never be conquered. The book also explores the challenges and triumphs faced by the framers of the Federal Constitution, who sought to create a more perfect union. The author argues that the Constitution's success lies in its ability to balance different interests, secure liberty, peace, and the general welfare, and prevent the tyranny that has plagued other republics.

In den Warenkorb23, [1 blank] pp. Disbound and spotted, Good or so, with the presentation inscription, "From R. Wickliffe Jr." "The veto power stands on the portals of the Government the safest champion of popular rights and the truest defender of the Constitution." Though a Whig, Wickliffe parts company with his fellows, whose rage at Presiden…t Tyler's thwarting of Whig programs led them to try to rein in the President's power to veto legislation. Tyler had become President after the death of William Henry Harrison, who had headed the first successful Whig presidential ticket. His Vice President, a Virginian who became known as "His Accidency," was at heart a Democrat. He would oppose at every opportunity the Whig program of internal improvements, a National Bank, and protective tariffs. Betrayed Whigs were enraged. But Wickliffe reminds them that if they "snatch from the Executive arm this weapon with which the constitution has entrusted it for its own defence and the protection of the people, and what in a few years will prevent Congress from abolishing slavery in the District of Columbia, and afterwards in the several States." Pierson 510. AI 42-5186 [4]. Not in Coleman.
