Interview with Kevin Gutzman: Is Establishing a Religion Constitutional?
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - North Carolina has a bill that, in one of it's clauses, tells the Federal Government that the state CAN establish it's own religion. But is this Constitutional? There's a lot of lawyers saying it isn't, but they're quoting many long dead judges who have mis-interpreted the Constitution over the years.

The First Congress: An Inauspicious, Unattended Start
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - Approximately 240 years ago the Congress and Senate were supposed to have their first meeting to elect the first President of the United States of America... but not enough Senators showed up to form a quorum. There were enough Congressmen there, but it took them several weeks and numerous letters to get some of the Senators (ahem,Virginia, ahem) there. And of course, when enough finally got to Federal Hall in New York, they electe….Continue
What Would George Mason Say About The Pentagon?
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Since I am failing in the meager task which was my charge, I’m going to resort to an actual founding father. I know they lived in the 18th century. I know there wasn’t internet. I know there weren’t airplanes. I know there weren’t any Muslims in the world (right). I know we had no enemies. I know all these things. I do not believe their wisdom is to be dismissed so frivolously and I would ….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.

What Did Virginia's Founding Fathers Really Mean When They Ratified Constitution?
Mandeville, LA - In a post I wrote earlier this week we discussed the fact the not only were the Southern States correct in their assertion of the Constitution as a Compact but nearly the entire PLANET agreed with them-save for that violent, tyrannical mob in New England. My post made its way onto the pages of The Imaginative Conservative website. In the comments that resulted, it was asserted that I didn't know what I was talking about and that the VA Founding Fathers NEVER i….Continue
Madison's Account of the Bill of Rights - by Kevin Gutzman
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - The Bill of Rights is coming around at a time when Rhode Island and North Carolina are refusing to ratify. They’re still terrified of the new government. Do you really think the first ten amendments were put in there so the federal government could order the states about? It’s just ridiculous. Of course, I understand many of you have been bludgeoned over the head with a lie your entire lives over what the Constitution is and what….Continue

How Stonewall Jackson Can Teach Our Sons and Us About Being Gentleman
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - One of the things that has gone off the train tracks and it is our job as men to put it back on -- no, I am not calling you ladies into service because this is not your job.

One of the things that you must do, and this is up to the men, i….Continue
