There is one thing that unites all American citizens in these troubled times. It is the nagging feeling that the world is going to hell in a handbasket.

The extent of the world's problems is staggering. A person can begin to feel helpless.

But helplessness is not an option in the United States of America! Our country flounders when citizens remove themselves from their Constitutionally-endowed place at the TOP of the chain of command.

Our founding fathers placed great trust in you.

In you!

... And in the free and open exchange of ideas and knowledge.

Your GRAMPA is here to help you.

Like the pamphleteers of Colonial times, GRAMPA will supply you with the information you need to join the hurly-burly, rough-and-tumble fun of living in a democratic republic!

Explore this site. You will find funny items and serious items. You will find information you can trust about a variety of issues facing our country today. Why can you trust it? Because everything is footnoted and verifiable.

Identifying the true nature of our society's problems -- free from public-relations spin, and one-sided propoganda, and personal prejudice -- is the best way to ensure our democratic republic thrives. It's the best way to ensure for yourselves and your children the blessings of life, of liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

"Knowledge will forever govern ignorance: And a people who mean to be their own Governors, must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives."

-- James Madison (1751-1836), U.S. president;
(letter to W.T. Barry, August 4, 1822).
