Your specialized study of this particular journalist, his most influential writings and this particular time in our nations history is of great value. The study of our history, of great writers, of creative and revolutionary thinkers and communicators has always been of great interest and importance to me, but clearly your expertise in this area is beyond my current level of education and I thank you for commenting on my wee blog. I sure wish you had been my fifth grade history teacher, and I look forward to reading your book. Mr. Wilensky,

This is critical in understanding what “We the People” really means. Today, as they did over 230 years ago, those documents instill in students the belief that all our voices are important. Every one of our citizens are given the right to pursue liberty. Futures do not have to be inevitable and "Little voices" can make dramatic impacts on events. That is Thomas Paine's greatest contribution to our country. His pamphlet, Common Sense, spoke to all the voices in the 13 colonies during a time of great fear and indecision. He gave a vast number of citizens a vision of what each could do, 176 days before the Declaration of Independence. A belief that power should radiate from the citizens. That message is still paramount to all our students today. For that pamphlet alone, Paine needs to be recognized as a integral part of the American miracle.
