Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – The only way that I know of that you can, in a foolproof manner, remove the impediment is to create the conditions under which people are ready to separate from the impediment. Separation is the ultimate end of the impediment. A separation from that leviathan guarantees, unless they decide to declare war on you a la Lincoln, that you then have to actually practice the ancient and lost art of self-gover….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – When James Madison was writing Federalist Paper No. 62, I think, something like that, when he was writing that particular Federalist Paper and he was pining away from a check on the excesses of the state legislatures -- he wanted a veto on the acts of the states -- the reason he gave was that you had to have some kind of a board of revision that could look at laws that were injurious to liberty and could repeal them.

Contains Exclusive: Transcript Topics: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – The basic idea the president is trying to get across is that government investment is somehow sacred and somehow superior to private investment.
