Who cares if he is boring. Talk about his policies, you shallow twit.

First of all it’s de Tocqueville, not DeTorqueville, and he didn’t even come to American until about three decades after Hamilton was dead. The education system is the travesty.

Really? Progressives should be ashamed for not matching teabaggers in time spent passively in front of a tv screen? Then you go on about getting off our collective duffs.
