Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - We can associate with anyone we want to in pretty much any walk of life. You can interact with anyone of any religion, race, political stance, taste in food, etc. But what about our states? What if one of our states wants to UN-associate itself with the "Perpetual Union" that Lincoln created? "OH NO YOU CAN'T DO THAT!" They will say. But why? If we have the right to do it individually, as people, why can't the states do it? Are the ….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – You can live free, but you’re not going to be able to die with a weapon in your hand according to Senator Ayotte. You can have a slingshot. You can have a peashooter, a .22 personal revolver that will fit in the watch pocket of your front pants, but we’re not giving you anything that you can defend against a government out of control or against the forces of an invading government out of control, which was the purpose of the Se….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Representative James White of Woodville is actually going through the legal, thought-provoking, and intelligent process of making a legal assertion and a principled assertion and a constitutional assertion as to why Texas is well within her rights to do this. Check out today’s transcript for the rest…….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – This is as basic a fundamental -- when you talk about privileges and immunities clauses in constitutions, when privileges and immunities came up during the debates over ratification, this is exactly what was being talked about, the old vote with your feet. If you happen to vote with your feet and a bunch of people that look like you vote with your feet and you wind up owning property in the same area, s….Continue

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - If you can accede to a plan of government, wouldn't it make sense that if the plan becomes injurious, that you can secede? Based on what's going on in Atlanta, with the suburbs seceding from their bankrupt cities, wouldn't it make sense that the next step would be for a state to secede from it's bankrupt National Government? Of course, that's if they can "get away with it" because if a state tries to se….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – If this happens, then we truly do have a national legislature and a national system. Who’s to say then that the mayor of Harrisburg shouldn’t go to Mordor, shouldn’t be lobbying Senator Casey right now and Senator Toomey to represent the citizens of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania -- which ought to be in bankruptcy right now and may be very shortly -- to have the national legislature bail them out? Why ….Continue

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

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - It makes no sense to me. This is another great example of how the propaganda and “to the victor go the spoils” mentality that it has weighed on the heads of Texans for 150 years. You drive around Houston and you’ll see secede stickers all over the place. No one is actually talking about doing something about it. I’d say there are about 16 trillion immediate reasons why you ought to do something a….Continue

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - On today's Founder's TV we've got a special interview with Kevin Gutzman whose book, "James Madison and the Making of America" comes out today in paperback.

"To complain of the age we live in, to murmur at the present possessors of power, to lament the past, to conceive extravagant hopes of the future, are the common dispositions of the greatest part of mankind; indeed the necessary effects of the ignorance and levity of the vulgar." - Edmund ….Continue

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

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Audio and Transcript - There are people in Texas now that are talking about secession, talking about Texas the nation, that I believe are really serious about it. They’re serious about it not just because of the election or the results of the election. They’re serious about it because they believe that the way of life they have enjoyed and some of the traditions and customs that make them Texan is threatened by the menacing general government o….Continue

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - Three weeks after Obama's election and the talk of Secession is still going strong... especially in Texas. In fact, Larry Kilgore is running for Governor of Texas and will even change his name to Larry SECEDE Kilgore. But what about Ron Paul? In an interview with Mike earlier in the year he said the he didn't really think Secession was a very good idea... but lately he's changed his mind about it, which he doesn't do very often, so ….Continue

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - Bob Cesca has an interesting article at the Huffington Post on the illegality of Secession, equating it to goblins and unicorns. Well, we have some other writers and articles to challenge you with, specifically an article by Doug Bandow at the CATO Institute entitled "The Great Secession" and our friend Brion McClanahan's (who will be on Founders TV tomorrow) article "Is Secession Legal" at the American Conservative. The debate at….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
