Incoherently liberal- america is born free: john locke"s world- liberty, property, religious tolerance and opportunity to revolt, limited government, america has immunity to change later on because of this inherent liberality, america should spread it across the globe. Belated feudalism- shortcomings of american revolution- minorities are left out: feudal relationships everywhere from work to at home to the king weren"t even allowed to take bathroom breaks! Paine vs. madison: paine- revolutionary, fighting for more freedom, madison- state building, fighting for control. The citizen secures himself against genius by icon worship. Circe"s wand, the divine troublemakers are translated into porcine embroidery. edward duhlenberg. Make it easier by looking at them like they"re icons and far away. Paine was a founding father, he was a revolutionist but not a polished politician- cursed, drank, bad jobs. Got job as journalist and wrote about abolition of slavery.
