A Republic, If We Can Keep It. Benjamin Franklin, who, on leaving the constitutional convention of 1787, supposedly told a curious passerby that the Framers had produced “a republic, if you can keep it.” The government set up by James Madison and the other Founders requires a virtuous public and virtuous leaders—or the whole system will fail. – Adam J. White. We had nether on January 6, 2021 when a mob of domestic terrorists violated the United States Capitol Building at the urging of President Donald Trump. It is imperative that the President be held accountable for his role in the ransacking of the Capitol and the deaths of at least five people and the terrorist must be brought to justice for their unlawful actions. This must be done if there is any hope of “keeping the Republic”.
