Common Sense Revisited
Group Information
Name:
Common Sense Revisited
Description:
Common Sense presented common sense arguments to refute the predominant theory of sovereignty for the Western world. .....Paine made the case for individual sovereignty, declaring that all powers of government were derived from the individuals who created the government. His arguments were so clearly stated that anyone could understand that individual sovereignty was the natural order, based on self evident, eternal truths. ....

To say his small pamphlet struck a chord with the colonials would be the understatement of the millenium. The first edition of 50,000 copies sold out in a day.
The second printing also sold out in a day.

For those of you that do not have the book "Common Sense" by Paine it can be found on the internet at http://www.ushistory.org/PAINE/commonsense/singlehtml.htm. It is well worth reading. Some great insight.
