Seeing Freedom | The Weekly Standard: "But part of why it’s wonderful is that it’s not remotely ostentatious or extravagant. The modest 1,800-square-foot house is not a home fit for a king but for a citizen in a republic. It’s republican through and through. Moreover, the land’s open expanses and the house’s American Western décor beautifully capture the spirit of liberty. To think of Mikhail Gorbachev and Queen Elizabeth visiting (as they did) and seeing the president of the United States living in such a humble yet alluring place, is a satisfying thought. The Founders would have been proud."
