Larry Lessig, George Washington and all other figures are/were human beings like the rest of us; it's only other people which catapult them onto pedestals. I think we should take stock in the coming socio-political fight for social justice, which needs a strong and wise torchbearer, so that it does not devolve into a French Revolution, but instead an insurrection in the spirit of democracy's promise of continual revolution. Because without a equality functioning across-the-board, history has shown time-and-time-again, that people inevitably seek country justice if city justice doesn't work for them. (It's not "right," but it's human nature.)
