When I arrived at West Point, I was issued three items, among others, vital to serving my country: a uniform, a rifle, and a copy of The Federalist Papers.  This collection of essays, written by some of the greatest minds among our Founders – Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay – remains a massive store of wisdom to which I often return.  It is a most valuable resource, along with our Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, available to any American committed to uph...
