Kansas Nullifies Gun Law As Eric Holder Threatens With Supremacy Clause
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – To read this letter here is just to read the most laughable interpretation of the federal constitution -- I say laughable in 18th century terms. Of course today people think that what Eric Holder wrote, [mocking] “Yeah, he can do that.” You have guys like Bill O’Reilly running around who will cite the supremacy clause for the silliest things and not even question it. You should question it. The Feds are not supreme and you ….Continue
Can Libertarianism And Republicanism Co-Exist?
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – According to Politico, the libertarian brand of Republicanism is making inroads and a big comeback. I will tell you that certainly when it comes to young people, the youth, they tend to be more libertarian. There’s a problem with that. Young people age. As they age, they tend to become a little less libertine or libertarian. Check out today’s transcript for the rest…….Continue
Partisan Politics And The Left-Right Paradigm - You're Not As Different As You Think
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – It just makes me think this whole right vs. left, liberal vs. conservative, this whole thing is an enormous game. It’s been played by men who have benefited so mightily from it that they can’t even count their riches. The hoi polloi has fallen for this hook, line and sinker. I just got an email from a Tea Party group, “Those liberals are at it again.” Let me tell you something. Liberals have been at it since the dawn of ….Continue
American Greatness Is In Our Communities
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Bill Kauffman writing Friday at American Conservative Magazine, I wanted to share this with you. This has everything to do with [r]epublicanism. Kauffman is also the author of one of my favorite books called Bye Bye, Miss American Empire. It is a treasure trove of republicanism and early and modern efforts at secession and establishing self-government in North America and the United States. Check out tod….Continue
If DOMA Is Struck Down What Purpose Does The Union Serve For DOMA States?
Mike Church's daily Pile of Prep, chock full of the latest crisis for the Union brought on by DOMA being assaulted by the judiciary plus other [r]epublican stories used to perform the Mike Church Show on Sirius/XM Patriot channel 125….Continue
Louisiana, Incorporation, And States' Rights
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Because a court makes a decision that alters or purports to alter foundational law, which the Constitution is, does not make it right. What they’ve basically done is amend the First Amendment. In the McDonald case, they amended the Second Amendment. In other cases, they amended Amendments Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven and Eight as well. They don’t have the authority to do that. Check out today….Continue
Marco Rubio And His Neocon Buddies Need To Go Back And Study History
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – “The idea is America and it still works,” what idea? A proper noun is not an idea. Folks, this is where these American exceptionalists should lose the intellectual thinker, the critical thinker, the person that actually reads, the person that actually contemplates, the person that actually considers, the person who is actually humble, the person who actually believes that history is an ongoing process and the history that is pa….Continue
Conservatives Need To Stop Fighting Over Details And Study History
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – This is why this schism is occurring inside conservative ranks. Number one, people don’t truly study conservative things. They don’t study the classics. They don’t study their actual history. They’re willing to take the mythological versions that modern-day charlatans publish, broadcast and what have you without doing their own due diligence. They haven’t considered the way the great traditions came about and why they ….Continue
Cicero And The Romans Foreshadow The Fate Of The United States
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – You want to tell me that ancient history and Roman and Greek history is not worth studying, I defy you. He is describing conditions that existed around 50, 60 BC, somewhere around there. He is describing conditions which existed in ancient Rome as they lost their way and stopped being republicans and became Empiricists. The exact same thing has happened here today. Check out today’s transcript for the rest…….Continue
Paul Gottfried: Americans Are All Socialists Now
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - There’s a guy in a state that’s modestly trying to rein some spending in and the people hate him. They despise him. They want to take him out in a field somewhere near Lancaster and stone him. Don’t hold out too much hope for the renaissance of the states getting involved in this. There are good people in the states. I think that’s where we go back to Utica, back to what Kauffman was saying earlier, like we try to do with ou….Continue

Definition of [r]epublicanism From Thomas Jefferson Letter to John Taylor of Caroline
Mandeville, LA - By Mike Church -"We are all [r]epublicans now." This is the Newsweek Magazine cover I hope to see someday but first we will need to educate many millions on just what [r]epublicanism is, why their Founding Parents said it was the best form of government and how they defined it. In this letter to John Taylor, Thomas Jefferson explains [r]epublicanism as he understands and promotes it. It is also enjoyable to read Jefferson's delight in Taylor's "pulverizing" ….Continue
If Wishes Were Horses, Beggars Would Ride - Just Practice Republicanism
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Jefferson said that republicanism is defined as: a government that is controlled by the people upon which it directly acts. In other words, if you live in a little hamlet anywhere in the United States, you have a town council or city council or alderman, whatever the case may be. Whoever is your direct lawgiver, that is who ought to exercise the most legislative power over your affairs. Why is this concept so hard to understand and wh….Continue
Stop Being So Cynical And Find The Beauty Around You
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Many people had the greatest intentions and look how it all turned out. Then the problem becomes that people will not admit, government is not allowed and will not admit its own failings. It just hasn’t plowed enough money in it, hasn’t tried hard enough. Now it seems like we’re stuck always looking for, always expecting the worst and the bad. That’s no way to go through life, man. That’s no way to even be a hopeful people….Continue
Armed Patrol At Schools in L.A. & AZ = [r]epublicanism At Work
Mandeville, LA - Mike Church's daily Pile of Prep, chock full of Founding Fathers, School Armed Patrol goodness and other [r]epublican stories used to perform the Mike Church Show on Sirius/XM Patriot channel 125. While many Senate Republicans are "Randy" over the skewering they are to meet out to Chuck Hagel, Rand Paul remains calm, cool and the first voice of humility in the whole debate-Nice! Dudestrodamus Calls it again: 17 States have now implemented "exchanges" for Oba….Continue
Donald in Texas Would Rather Secede and Deal With His Own Problems... Sounds Like federalism To Me
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - What you’re basically describing to me is that you desire a return to a very healthy and energetic form of federalism, which is what you could have under a federal system as envisioned and ordered by the U.S. Constitution. Unfortunately, that is not what we currently have. There is an attempt at federalism but it’s abandoned all too easily. There are a few people that are actually dedicated and devoted to it. I’d say that in th….Continue
Why We Want republicanism
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Let’s just say, for example, if the people of Massachusetts and New York and New Jersey, if they want to live under ObamaCare, who are we to deny them? If that’s what you want to do, you ought to be able to do that. I don’t care. I believe you’re going to bankrupt yourself, and I believe there’s going to be a shortage of actual human liberty there. You’re going to steal from the wages of one ….Continue
Incorporating Amendment Two Will Disarm People and Undermine Republicanism
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - I don’t have a problem with the NRA. What I said is they have foolishly and in an unconstitutional, suicidal to liberty manner, worked for and now achieved incorporation of Amendment Two and the rest of the Bill of Rights for use against the states, which, as I pointed out, a state previously would have been free, should they have cared to do so, to pass a must-carry law. You can’t do that now. Now you’ll have Nancy Pelosi getti….Continue
Newtown, Q: What Would The Founding Fathers Do? A: Pray
Mandeville, LA - Mandeville, LA - Mike Church's daily Pile of Prep, chock full of Founding Fathers, Christmas Spirit Fiscal Cliff goodness and other [r]epublican stories used to perform the Mike Church Show on Sirius/XM Patriot channel 125. "Not long ago, there existed in our hearts “a fear of God. How, we would ask ourselves, if we commit an evil act like murder, will we answer at God’s judgment seat? For He will decide if we enter what the president called in Newtown, ….Continue
David Hume, Scottish Founding Fathers & Early Promoters of [r]epublicanism
Mandeville, LA - Name the week of the year on a calendar and there is a good chance that Mike Church has brought up a man who inspired our founding fathers, David Hume and his "The Idea of a Perfect Commonwealth", on his Sirius/XM radio show or Founders TV show. Hume was an inspirational figure during the founding era and is well known to have inspired James Madison's views on the Constitution. Hume understood the concept of "human scale theory" as it applies to the size of po….Continue
There is No Salvation To Be Delivered By Romney or Obama, Obsessing Over Them Is Making It Worse
Obama & co. ponder where to strike the rebels they helped put in power in Libya (still no word on the orignal sin of intervention) Loyalty of the Lib as seen in polls: ObamaBots bolt the President on the results of ONE debate? And you wonder where the character & virtue of our civilization has gone? "Ruh Roh Shaggy!" The Democrats get out the vote effort, much maligned the past 4 years, looks to be working BETTER than the GOP's Tyranny is yielding to [r]epublicanism as….Continue

Virginia, the two Carolinas and Georgia, may be said to defray three fourths of the annual expense of supporting the federal government; and of this great sum annually furnished by them, nothing, or next to nothing, is returned to them in the shape of government expenditure. - Senator Thomas Hart Benton
