Who Said It?<br />
By: Dan Hyde / Call to Action<br />
“<br />
Political parties serve to organize faction,<br />
to give it an artificial and extraordinary<br />
force; to put, in the place of the delegated<br />
will of the nation the will of a party, often a small but artful<br />
and enterprising minority of the community resulting in illconcerted<br />
and incongruous projects…they are likely to become<br />
potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled<br />
men (and women) will be<br />
enabled to subvert the<br />
power of the people and to<br />
usurp for themselves the<br />
reins of government!”<br />
Sound familiar and<br />
applicable in today’s vitriolic<br />
election processes? Very<br />
prophetic or pathetic and<br />
accurate, to say the least!<br />
ANSWER – GEORGE<br />
WASHINGTON in his<br />
Farewell Address to the<br />
nation in 1797, 221 years<br />
ago!<br />
