It's True, The Miracle 14th Amendment Was Never Legally Ratified
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I’m well aware of what that pocket constitution says. I’m well aware of the ahistorical argument and the ahistorical facts, meaning they’re not historical, that says it was ratified. How can an entity that is said to not be a part of the federal union and must ratify said document you have in your hand, how can it ratify and be counted as a ratifying state when the Congress and president say it’s not a state. Check out tod….Continue
Senator Cruz's Filibuster Should Be About Obamacare Ushering In An Oligarchy
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – It makes it a national one, or even more dangerously, it makes it an oligarchical system, meaning the rulers make the rules the rest of us live by while exempting themselves from same. There is nothing that prevents them, nothing that prevents them from inserting their opinion and altering the course of human history in any way, manner, shape, or form that they deign to be necessary. That is not how a federal system can operate. C….Continue
Interview With Greg Brannon, North Carolina Candidate For U.S. Senate
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – To the Dude Maker Hotline, my friend and soon to be yours, Dr. Greg Brannon. I want to tell you a little about Dr. Brannon. He is running for what is basically an open United States Senate seat in the great State of North Carolina. He is a practicing doctor, an obstetrician. He has a houseful of children.

Constitution As Savior Of Humankind - Richard Henry Lee Didn't See It That Way
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – In the last two weeks, I have immersed myself in research for a short film I want to make. I’ve been wanting to make it since 2009 when I stumbled on this story, a very obscure story about how the effort to stop ratification of the Constitution was intentionally sabotaged. There is no doubt in my mind that it was intentionally sabotaged. The challenge is to try and figure out who it was that did the sabotaging. Check out today….Continue
Secret Courts, Corporatism, Congress Run Amok - Welcome To Amurika!
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I want to take you now to the Guardian UK, the American online edition, Glenn Greenwald writing Friday, “Email service used by Edward Snowden shuts itself down, warns against using US-based companies.” The reputation of the United States continues to sink around the world, and that’s not my doing and it’s not Ron Paul’s doing, it’s not Lew Rockwell’s doing, and it’s not anyone that is a “libertarian” or Rand Paul….Continue
Why Was There a Constitution Called For?
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - What it takes to be a constitutional expert today is to have gone to a law school on the East Coast, it’s as simple as that, and to have had some professor profess to teach the subject. What they actually teach, if they teach at all, is they teach Supreme Court history. It’s not really Constitution history; it’s Supreme Court history. Constitution history is a fairly straightforward field of study. ….Continue

Bill Of Rights Is Meant To Restrict The Feds, Not The States
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – The Bill of Rights was used and created to provide further safeguards for the states against the Feds, just in case the Feds got the bright idea that they wanted to try, as the vulgar phrase goes in 2013, take our guns away. The Second Amendment says: No, you can’t; you’re prohibited from doing it. That doesn’t mean the State of Illinois couldn’t do it. It just means that the Feds can’t do it. Check out today’s transcr….Continue
Patrick Henry - Why did they say "We the People"?
During the VA Ratifying Convention Patrick Henry was the most frequent speaker against ratification of the new Constitution. Here, on 4 June, 1788, Mr. Henry first spoke to the delegates and reminded them of Virginia's sovereignty and her membership in a confederation of states. This speech is acted out in my movie "The Spirit of '76 - The Greatest Story Never Told".….Continue
Supreme Court Continues To Disregard Constitution And Strengthen Federal Leviathan
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I’m going to walk you through a couple of the legal -- these are very easy to understand -- reasoning behind why the power to choose electors was left in the hands of the states, and why the Supreme Court erred mightily yesterday. Justice Thomas points this out at the end of his dissent: What you guys are doing here, you are undermining and eroding the foundation of the constitutional system itself. Check out today’s transcript….Continue

Patrick Henry - Patriot, Pontificator And Bibliophile
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Hayes actually went to Red Hill, which is where Henry lived and died, and asked permission of the family and the curator of the family estate and found Henry’s own diaries and the logs that Patrick Henry used to catalog his possessions. Back in those days, if you had books, books were like -- what would you compare a book to today? A book was a prized possession. They were very difficult to make. Usually what would happen is so….Continue

A Sovereign State Is Its People, Not Its Government
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - A state is a collection of sovereign people. A state is not -- you live in Philadelphia. When your legislature or assembly meets in Harrisburg, that is not the state. That is the elected representatives of the state. The state is the people. The people are the sovereign. The only other way this works is when the king is the sovereign. Check out today's transcript for the rest...….Continue
Sovereign Citizens And Article V Amendment Convention
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - The fact that we’re having this conversation demonstrates yet again that the Constitution is not the work of a God; it’s the work of fallible men. They did not and could not have possibly foreseen all the damage and usurpations that would be visited upon the compact by designing men. You have to perceive these things. Their attitude was correct. You have to go into the proceedings and legislative sessions or conventions with the ….Continue
