The troubling thing is that on occasion, Machiavelli has had information not available to us up here in the cheap seats.
While I am sure that Machiavelli does have some sources that the rest of us don't, I also know that he fabricates out of thin air much of what he writes. It is like reading Guede's statements. I know that some of it probably does have grains of truth, but I also know that a large portion is a total lie. The difficulty is learning how to tell difference.
