Happy Presidents' Day 2015 -- February 16, 2015

Happy Presidents' Day, everyone.  John Adams, our second president, was a leader of the revolution and the early republic.  Thomas Jefferson's followers vilified him as a monarchist, but he was a firm believer in republican government and Enlightenment ideals. 

"Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence."
