Last sunday, I devoted the day to my uncle Roby who asked me to please write a list of all the published articles he ever sent me. Deep breath.......I opened the box labelled Sandler Family Archives and took out all the letters from Roby that he ever sent me over a twenty year period.......upon looking at all the material, I thought, no....he sent me more than that. So I had to open the closet in the hallway, which contains 10 boxes from California, never unpacked.......sure enough, another box labelled Family Papers. I dragged it out; what a find ! And sure enough, more articles and letters from Roby.

I googled you just now: sunday, 3.7.10; below is a reference to an article you wrote in Liberty Magazine; I don't have it.
December 3, 2005:
Writing in Liberty Magazine, Robert Sandler, professor emeritus of history, University of Miami, writes about the making of the Constitution in 1787 and an attempt (of which I’ve never previously heard) to get the name “Jesus Christ” put into the original Constitution. Supposedly, a group of orthodox Christians asked George Washington (president of the Constitutional Convention) and company that an “explicit acknowledgment of the only true God and Jesus Christ be included in the Constitution.” [quotes in the original]
Sandler writes:
After deliberation the delegates denied the request.
Thomas Jefferson, who in 1776 had written the Declaration of Independence, was in France at the time the Constitution was written. He knew most of the delegates. Upon his return he made it a point to contact as many delegates as he could. He had, of course, met and worked with most of them before. Thomas Jefferson, a fine writer, had been keeping a journal of these important days, and he was interested in writing about the appeal of the religious group. He wrote the following description of the delegates’ response to the clergy: “The insertion [the only true God . . . Jesus Christ, etc.] was rejected by a great majority, in proof that they [the delegates] meant to comprehend, within the mantle of its [the Constitution's] protection, the Jew and the Gentile, the Christian and Mahometan, the Hindoo, and infidel of every denomination.” Those are the words that the writers of our Constitution gave to Thomas Jefferson for his journal (The Writings of Thomas Jefferson, Vol. I, p. 45).
