Already said that its what is written, told you that i can never tell u its 1oo percent accurate cause i was not there, but we are just being redundant at this point. But its cool but i can go all night

I can't, I'm going to sleep soon. But what do you think your example shows besides the fact that "President of the United States" is an ambiguous phrase? The issue of the Moon Landing doesn't turn on a point of language or misunderstanding based on a definition or an ambiguity.

John Hancock, who we recognize was actually president twice before George Washington was elected.

Should history begin 15 years after the birth of the county?

Technically that was another country, a collection of allied countries to be precise.

The whole constitutional convention was a blatant violation of the articles of the confederation. Meaning our entire government from the planning of the constitution, to the ratification process, to today, is actually criminal.

The articles were very clear on what the reform processes were to be, our founding fathers disregarded them, and planned a new government from scratch using secret meetings that the public were not included on. Franklin was escorted around by armed guards to make sure he wouldn't accidentally leak the secret meetings to the public. It was an illegal coup!

Before the ratification of the constitution, we were not 1 country but a collection of individual sovereign states. Therego the COUNTRY as a
single unit, starts ~15 years after the birth of our country.

Was called the United States of America when Hansen was elected

That was the name of the confederation/alliance, that's not quite the same as saying we were all integrated into one big federal government.

"Germany" called itself Germany at times when there was no legal entity of Germany, just a collection of states, kingdoms, and so forth. When our ambassador Gerad was sent to Germany in 1913, "Germany" as a legal entity didn't exist yet, consquently the kings of several German countries like Saxony were quite pissed off at us for not also giving them diplomatic recognition.

But I'm asking you about your analogy. It doesn't seem to apply.

We have argued alot about different things trish, so u should know, i dont do analogies, I gather so called facts than speak on them. Once again I cant definitively say that the moon walk was BS, but u have to agree that u cant definitively say that it actually happened

The link you provided was a YAHOO news, not from NASA. But let's give you the benefit of the doubt. What do you mean by the original footage? The transmissions were picked up and recorded simultaneously by NASA and many different television stations. So there are many original recordings. So what if NASA lost theirs.

It was all a pool feed through NASA. The TV people weren't picking it up direct.

But then what was your point of bringing up John Hanson, if it wasn't to point out the epistemic analogy that in both cases you weren't there to observe what went down. My claim is the epistemic parallels breakdown once one realizes the Hanson issue turns on a definition of a word (president) and the Moon Landing issue does not.
