Subject- civics
Read the quote below from James Madison. Explain what you believe he is saying. Then explain what actions you might do, or have already done to make it apply to your own life. This post should be at least one paragraph. Next, come back in a couple of days and make a comment on a post written by one of your classmates. Comment whether you believe your peer's actions would, in fact, satisfy Madison's statement. Make sure you state why, or why not you agree or disagree with your peer. Remember, proper netiquette is very important. Now, here's the quote:
"In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself."---James Madison (1788)
