As the United States marks 250 years, partisan factionalism has reached an intensity few Americans have seen in their lifetimes. In All Republic Project, Colin Kelly argues that the most extreme voices in our discourse are testing the boundaries of the Constitution itself. Citizens grounded in federalism, the philosophy that gave rise to the Constitution, have a duty to make their case.

Kelly offers Twenty-Five Protocols as a starting point for a fresh conversation. They are not final proposals, nor an attempt to average out viewpoints for the sake of getting along. Kelly takes clear positions, some the left won't support and some the right won't support. He welcomes critique from all sides. This is not a centrist doctrine. It is a doctrine that honors the constitutional spirit that has sustained this Nation for 250 years and counting.
