The Founding Fathers and Twitter
- The relationship between Twitter and the constitutional freedoms of expression America's founders guaranteed citizens for insight is worth revisiting
- Our founders believed freedom of expression was necessary to maintain liberty
- At the time, newspapers were the primary means of public communication, so they were insulated from political extortion from those who didn't like what they printed
- John Milton argued for freedoms of speech and the press, and against censorship, in England before America's founding
- Truth needs no policies or stratagems to make it victorious
- Liberty cannot be preserved without a general knowledge among the people of the characters and conduct of their rulers
