ARE BLOGGERS JOURNALISTS?
LET'S ASK THOMAS JEFFERSON
by Christopher B. Daly

"What do we mean by the Revolution? The war? That was no part of the Revolution; it was only an effect and consequence of it. The Revolution was in the minds of the people, and this was effected, from 1760 to 1775, in the course of fifteen years before a drop of blood was shed at Lexington. The records of 13 legislatures, the pamphlets, newspapers in all the colonies, ought to be consulted during that period to ascertain the steps by which the public opinion was enlightened and informed..."

--John Adams, writing to Thomas Jefferson, 1815.
