In [2008], history is so seldom recalled, or even taught, as it truly unfolded. Schools teach a "censored" version of American History, watered down and void of most of its potency. Students today, and adults of tomorrow, no longer have the respect and reverence for how truly amazing our country, and its founders, really are. The foresight exhibited by our Founding Fathers, was, and continues to be, awe-inspiring. The rights and freedoms granted to us by men such as Thomas Jefferson and George Washington are still enjoyed today. Sadly, those same rights are also taken for granted and abused. So, in an attempt to enlighten the intelligent people that we are all capable of being, here is a list of seldom publicized sites that offer a true, unmitigated and unpoliticized, view of our beginnings.
