This is absolute  BS~ People need to wake up~ first of all there may be no American way in 2016 ~ who said KILL all the lawyers?  I guess the irony is that ~As the famous remark by the plotter of treachery in Shakespeare's King Henry VI shows - "The first thing we must do is kill all the lawyers," - the surest way to chaos and tyranny even then was to remove the guardians of independent thinking.  Its a Lawyer joke  intended as a praise of the lawyer's role. http://www.spectacle.org/797/finkel.html

In 1983 David Dodge and Tom Dunn were searching for evidence of government corruption in public records in a Belfast Library on the coast of Maine. They uncovered probably the most explosive evidence ever uncovered in our history. They uncovered the United States Constitution printed in 1825, which was to prohibit lawyers from serving in Government. http://www.uhuh.com/constitution/am13-pen.htm
