An American prophet who the Dummocrats should listed too!
Thomas Jefferson in some cases could be called a prophet.
When we get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, we
shall become as corrupt as Europe - Thomas Jefferson
The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are
willing to work and give to those who would not. - Thomas Jefferson
It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A
principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world. -
Thomas Jefferson
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent
the government from wasting the labors of the people under the
pretense of taking care of them. - Thomas Jefferson
My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from
too much government. -Thomas Jefferson
No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms. - Thomas Jefferson
The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and
bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in
government. - Thomas Jefferson
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood
of patriots and tyrants. - Thomas Jefferson
To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas
which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical. - Thomas
Jefferson
In light of the present financial crisis, it's interesting to read what
Thomas Jefferson said in 1802:
'I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our
liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow
private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by
inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow
up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their
children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.'
Abraham Lincoln Was Also Right

So I said to him, "Barack, I know Abe Lincoln, and you ain't
Abe Lincoln."
You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's
initiative
and independence.
You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could
and should do for themselves.
.....Abraham Lincoln
