Obviously, it was not good. But the irony was not lost on all of the founders. It took a lot of time for us to sort out many things and I'm grateful that we did; we are still in the process. No one can expect human beings to be perfect before they get something good started. If the Declaration of Independence and the flawed but resilient Constitution that followed had not been written, would Barak Obama be the most powerful individual on earth?
