Foreign Policy: The Difference Between Rand Paul and James Monroe

Contains Exclusive: Audio, Video Topics: , , , , ,

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - Rand Paul is giving an intriguing speech on Foreign Policy to the Heritage Foundation next week... and why is that intriguing you might ask? Becuase the Heritage Foundation is one of the biggest promoters of "American Exceptionalism" in the world. We believe this means that this is Rand saying that he is not his Fathers son when it comes to Foreign Policy and would like to put this in some historical context with the Monroe Doctrine….Continue

Give Up On The Constitution? Should We Give Up On Everything Over 200 Years Old Mr. Seidman?

Contains Exclusive: Audio, Video Topics: , , , , , ,

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - Georgetown "Constitutional Law" Professor Michael Seidman believes that we should just give up on the Constitution because it was written over 200 years ago by a bunch of guys who were basically out of touch with how our country is run today. Well, what if we were to just give up on everything that was over 200 years old? There would certainly be no major religions left in the world and many of our own elite colleges (including you….Continue

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - For some reason, it has just been seared into the mind of the average American gun owner out there. It doesn’t matter what the facts are and it doesn’t matter what the Constitution as ratified and the Bill of Rights, as you call it, as ratified said. It doesn’t even matter what the first 130 years of life under that amendment, what that intent was and how that intent was honored. That doesn’t even….Continue

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - If your sheriff will interpose on your behalf on behalf of the Second Amendment, why won’t your sheriff interpose on behalf of the rest of the amendments? If you sheriffs out there -- there’s probably some of you listening right now. You listen to me, if you’re doing this because it’s good politics, I understand. If you’re doing it out of devotion to principle, my question to you is: What about the other seven amendments tha….Continue

The Constitution Was Written By Fallible Men, Not Divined By God

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

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - You see and hear it every day on this show when people call me up and argue with me about incorporation and deny the history. It has to do with this idea that the United States Constitution was sent by God, that it was carried down from Mt. Sinai, which was Independence Hall, carved on stone tablets, and we’re all sworn a perpetual and never-ending oath to uphold and worship it. It was a document, ladies and gentlemen, written by mor….Continue

Military Expansion Is Now Jobs Creation

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

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - So the military-industrial complex is now fully bared for all to see. There’s one surefire way to see to it that your wives, your sisters, and your daughters are never conscripted and are never allowed to serve in a combat role, that is to assert your sovereignty as a state, go your own way, and field your own damn military. Make it a rule. Anyone who doesn’t like it, you can move to another state. H….Continue

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - When you talk about those states breaking off into chunks and separating, then that new state has a chance to write its own new constitution. In that constitution, it can choose whether or not it wishes to apply for entry into the union.

A State Has The Right To Choose Its Religion

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - There are two prohibitions in the Constitution, one against religious tests for office and the First Amendment.

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - How many of you American exceptionalists now don’t like TJ now that you've heard his Inaugural Address? Jefferson was out there saying peace and commerce with all nations, entangling alliances with none. Isn’t Jefferson the one who wanted war with Tripoli?

[The powerful Executive branch]...converts representation into vassalage to the leaders of parties, disciplined, not by the comparatively honourable infliction of the lash, but by the base and wicked sophism, that it is honourable to stick to a party, and treacherous to adhere to conscience. The disciples of this infamous doctrine are forged into tools for ambition and tyranny by praises and rewards, whilst honesty is discouraged by base epithets, as a foil to the varnish with which the decoys are painted, designed to deceive and enslave the multitude
