George Washington would have hated the Democrats and the Republicans

Thanks to the Independent Voters Network for digging up this
George Washington quote at a time when voter disdain for the two parties,
Democrats and Republicans, is reaching new heights. It’s no secret that many of
the Founders feared the rise of powerful political parties that would dominate and
corrupt the government.

Washington said:

“…they are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent
engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to
subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of
government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to
unjust dominion.”
