33. There's alot she probably doesn't know

She might not understand alot of what these guys believed. It might get her in trouble with the Catholics. When the constitution was being debated, there were attempts to figure out how to prevent Catholics from holding federal offices. Truth is, that later on in our history, the inspiration in some areas for public schooling was that alot of private schools were run by the Catholics and people wanted an alternative.

I do wonder if she objected to these vouchers being used at Jewish runs schools.
