For those for whom words and actions mean something, not just "ideas", here are the words of Tom Paine, be-smudged across the most sincere part. Paine pleaded with Madison, Hamilton and Washington to rid the new land of the stain of slavery. His very words addressing this point were stained and blotted out above. Words mean something, perhaps folks can re-read Old Tom, I do. Just a note, the Jacobins in the French Revolution had Tom less than a day from beheading. One can always tell the character of a person by that of their enemies, especially those who are unable or refuse to read.
