JAMES MADISON QUOTE - 1822

"A popular government without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy; or, perhaps both. Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power knowledge gives."

You are refering to the Scottsboro Forum, al.com posting 7752.4.1.1.1.1.1. The closed mind - open mind explained in a video. The video was checked upon posting, it worked. However, since the original posting 1 character was removed from the You Tube code, it was the ? mark after "watch"-before the "v" in the code. I have repasted the link with all the code present and it works.

I filed a complaint 2 weeks ago with Advance Internet, parent organization of al.com, concerning tampering with forum postings. This is not the first time part of forum postings mysteriously disappear.
