In some sense the American War of Independence never ended. The issues that divided it remain alive to this day. Perhaps it will never be settled for mankind, which will always be divided between those who look up at Ultron and see Hope and those who wonder why anyone who broods on a throne should be trusted.

The problem is that the social proofers demand that everyone conform to their viewpoint, to confirm its validity.

#6 Bobby has the trick of it. America has always had these voices, we just didn't listen to them.
