Which president wore women's clothes?
Many American rulers enjoy wearing women's clothing. The most recent of the presidential cross-dressers were King George H. W. Bush I and his heir to the throne, Prince George W. Bush II. Both of which are permitted to wear Queen Mother Barbara's hand-me-downs. It is also fortuitous that they all wear the same shoe size. Republicans understand the importance of bondage between a mother and child.
Who said democracies can only last 200 years?
A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. Great nations rise and fall. The people go from bondage to spiritual truth, to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependence, from dependence back again to bondage. Who penned the above words? If one were to put one's faith in the reliability of the internet, the obvious answer would be Alexander Tytler. Or Alexander Tyler. Or Arnold Toynbee. Or Lord Thomas Macaulay. Or... The truth is that despite their frequent use, the above text actually has its origins in two separate and independent quotes, and the author of the first half is, to date, unknown. With regard to the first quoted paragraph, the Library of Congress' Respectfully Quoted writes, "Attributed to ALEXANDER FRASER TYTLER, LORD WOODHOUSELEE. Unverified." The quote, however, appears in no published work of Tytler's. And with regard to the second, the same book says "Author unknown. Attributed to Benjamin Disraeli. Unverified." Yet despite this factual uncertainty, these quotes are not only frequently attributed to Tytler, but just as frequently employ his antiquity as a means of enhancing their reliability. I myself was misled for years before being informed of their "unverified" status.
Why did blacks leave the south to north during great migration?
Large numbers of African-American families left the South after 1865 for several reasons. The first is that, being emancipated from unjust bondage, many newly free citizens sought to break ties with the communities in which they had been enslaved. The second is that a number of Northern states and North/South border counties offered opportunities for African-Americans to settle in as-yet unpopulated areas. Above all, African-Americans were now exercising their freedom as citizens of the United States.
