Happy Constitution Day. 🇺🇸
On September 17, 1787, after a long, hot summer in Philadelphia, 39 delegates signed the United States Constitution.
George Washington presided. Benjamin Franklin was there. They had argued for months over representation, power, and liberty. Then they put their names on four pages that still govern us.
“We the People.”
Not a king. Not a committee. The people.
It is the oldest written national constitution still in force. It created a Republic of limited government, separated powers, and rights that do not come from Washington.
Our Founders knew it would only last if we fought to preserve it. John Adams said it was made for a moral and religious people. Washington called it the guide he would never abandon.
That charge is ours now. For our children. For the farmers and ranchers who feed this country. For every American who still believes the Constitution means what it says.
We the People. Then. Now. Always.
God bless America.
