Clarence Manion Professions : Author Born : 1896 Died : 1979 Browse All Authors Top 3 quotes by Clarence Manion The honest and serious student of American history will recall that our Founding Fathers managed to write both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution without using the term 'democracy' even once.
