earlier today, i had the chance to meet students that were visiting here from aspen, colorado. when i meet with students, i sometimes get the impression that they think, mr. president, that all of this was just here, that the capitol was here, the supreme court was here, the white house was just here, somehow it all just fell from the sky. and i always remind them that it wasn't just here. the only reason that we have any of this is because previous generations of americans overcame enormous difficulty to write and ratify the constitution. we forget that americans were sharply divided over whether to ratify the constitution. some worried that the new government would grow too powerful and become the very tyranny that they had just fought a war to escape. by the way, think about that for a second. that generation of americans accomplished two things that it had never been done in human history before. they led an armed insurrection that was successful against the colonial empire and they wrote a constitution that was ratified by the people who would live under it. no humans had
