A Voice From the Past

He has refused his assent to laws the most whole
some and necessary for the public good"
When T. jefferson, Esq, quilted those words the
Wilhelm HohenzoIem of the time, German monarch,
wore a British and a Hun frown.
One could almost be persuaded that the Jeffersonian
document in its major part directed at the brute
whose boot of Prssianism today brushes human rights
under heel of steel.
The clue to the top Teutons tendency tyrannze
and terrorze exists in that phrase dipped from T. Us
horn: "HE has refused his assent ."
In ruler unlimited power and the prerogative
of absolute veto be safely vested Invariably, the ntox
cation of domination evolves that murderous to
mankind, the dictator.
The day of disregard for popular desire the of the
despo the Sygan of oppression and suppression
ended The hand of Time is writing the chapter in that
book of boodshed based blasted superstition 1.-THE
Divine Right of Kings"
Public voice will give choice to appointed rulers in
the matter of rejection and acceptance of issues the
general good.
The national head will be elected and respected for his
discretion judgment vision and worldly wisdom
But he will counsel not CONTROL advise revise devise
for his peoples prosperity welfare happiness
not abuse confuse refuse and overwhem the subjects

He will be primarily public SERVANT, and only as
such, MASTER of his governmental house.
