2022 Walter Berns Constitution Day Lecture with Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) | LIVE STREAM
In his 1838 Lyceum Address, Abraham Lincoln argued that the United States’s downfall could only occur “by suicide.” In his view, resisting the rise of a “mobocratic spirit” would require a commitment “to the support of the Constitution and Laws” by every American—both citizens and leaders.
Nearly two centuries later, an alarmingly widespread contempt for our laws and political process is threatening the intergenerational compact that perpetuates the American experiment. Please join AEI for the 11th annual Walter Berns Constitution Day Lecture, featuring Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) on why Lincoln’s call for a patriotism grounded in “reverence for the Constitution” is essential for protecting our inheritance of liberty.
