Without that right, the president will hsve full power over his/her people. ]]> 2020-12-16 00:59:14 UTC https://padlet.com/980066132/ty2some9ejm7q5fy/wish/1022436009 Words of wisdom. 980066132 https://padlet.com/980066132/ty2some9ejm7q5fy/wish/1022443578 The people should have rights, so we should wait until that happens. In George Washington's words, "Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence, (I conjure you to believe me fellow citizens) the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake; since history and experience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of Republican Government."]]> 2020-12-16 01:02:49 UTC https://padlet.com/980066132/ty2some9ejm7q5fy/wish/1022443578 980066132 https://padlet.com/980066132/ty2some9ejm7q5fy/wish/1022479932 I chose not to sign the Constitution because I believe that all people deserve rights no matter race or skin color.
Another reason I chose not to sign the Constitution is that I believe that it is unfair to have slavery in any country or state.
 
The last reason I chose not to sign the Constitution is I agree with George Washington that “When a people shall have become incapable of governing themselves, and fit for a master, it is of little consequence from what quarter he comes. “
As you can see the constitution is not yet finished. I do not believe that it is time to sign it.
