On this episode of The Hillsdale College Online Courses Podcast, Kyle and Juan discuss their favorite Founders before introducing David Azerrad and Thomas West.

In this course, Thomas West, one of the leading scholars on the American Founding, is joined by David Azerrad, his former student and now colleague, to examine the principles of the Founders, explore the urgent political questions they faced, and reveal the choices they made to secure free government in America.   

The goal of their conversation is to move beyond a simple recitation of the abstract principles of the Founding and bring their political theory to life so we can see how the Founders approached the perennial problems of politics. 

The Founders believed government has a duty to protect citizens against threats from fellow citizens through the enforcement of criminal and civil laws, from foreign nations through national defense, and from government itself through the constitutional arrangements and the due process of law.
