The Founders of Liberty – Benjamin Rush Tee“Without virtue there can be no liberty, and liberty is the object and life of all republican governments.” Benjamin Rush, a signer of the Declaration of Independence and one of America’s most influential patriots, tied the survival of freedom directly to the moral character of the people. A physician, educator, and statesman, Rush believed that liberty could not endure in a nation that abandoned virtue. To him, self-government required self-control, and a republic without moral grounding would soon lose both its strength and its freedom. The Founders of Liberty – Benjamin Rush Tee carries that truth forward: virtue is the lifeblood of liberty.
