On Fox & Friends this morning promoting his new book A Republic If You Can Keep It, the Supreme Court’s Neil Gorsuch quoted a previous jurist having said that the U. S. Constitution is a great product conceived after six thousand years of men and women yearning for a just system of government. Of course Gorsuch need not have used that quote among hundreds of interesting statements by jurists about the greatness of the Constitution, but Gorsuch included this one, that humanity’s been struggling with concepts of government since the fall of Adam and Even about 6,000 years ago.
