Read the Federalist Papers with The Chief because You have nothing Better to Do

So we're going to try something new here at the Chief. In order to get infuse some regularity into the posts here, we're going to start something of a book club. Every week we'll read a small chunk and write up a post about it in hopes of generating some conversation. Since this blog mostly focuses on politics we decided to kick things off with The Federalist Papers.

If you don't have a copy, don't worry: the book is in the public domain, which means you can find a copy of the full text any number of places online (like here).

Here's the first reading assignment:
The Articles of Confederation and Federalist No. 1 for next Friday.
It's like four pages. Everyone's welcome. To be perfectly honest, I have no idea how long we're going to sustain this project, but readers being into it will certainly encourage to us carry on.

MORE: We're adding the good old Articles of Confederation into the mix just provide some context.

    Fascinating blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere?
    A theme like yours with a few simple adjustements would really make my blog jump out.

    Please let me know where you got your design.

    I comment each time I especially enjoy a article on a site or I have something to add to the conversation.

    It's triggered by the passion communicated in the post I read. And on this article "Read the Federalist Papers with The Chief because You have nothing Better to Do". I was actually excited enough to leave a leave a responsea response :-) I do have some questions for you if you usually do not mind. Could it be only me or does it appear like some of these comments come across like written by brain dead individuals? :-P And, if you are writing on additional online sites, I would like to follow anything new you have to post. Could you make a list all of all your shared sites like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?

    I'm amazed, I have to admit. Rarely do I come across a blog that's both educative and
    entertaining, and without a doubt, you have hit the nail on the head.

    The issue is something not enough folks are speaking intelligently
    about. Now i'm very happy that I stumbled across this in my hunt for something concerning this.

    Very good blog! Do you have any tips and hints for aspiring writers?
    I'm hoping to start my own blog soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
    Would you propose starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go for a paid option?
    There are so many options out there that I'm totally overwhelmed .. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot!
