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.

We Clearly Don't Have A Constitution Anymore, So Why Have States?

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – In other words, the only compromise that they could reach was let’s just rely on the wisdom of the people acting through their state legislatures on how they think in each individual state a right of suffrage or a right to vote ought to be handled. Whatever qualifications they attach to that, that same qualification will then transfer to the election of federal officers. In other words, if good enough to elect the people of the s….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

Mike to Katie from Tennessee: "Your State is Your Country"

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

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Audio and Transcript - Your country Tennessee is part of a union of countries. This is another one of the thinking processes that has gotten totally out of whack and totally out of kilter. It is a great story to be re-lived that while the great General Robert E. Lee did not believe that the act of secession was legal, he was wrong about that. When he was asked by Mr. Seward to lead President Lincoln’s army to invade and put down the rebel insurr….Continue

That would be true only if politics simply belongs to the government. There is a far vaster sphere of politics – the life of the polis – that belongs to the everyday acts of ordinary people. ….Continue

Voting Does Not Make You Patriotic, Self-Governing Does

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

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Audio and Transcript - Voting is not the ultimate act of self-government. Let’s say you only voted every four years. So you voted, you don’t have to actually govern yourself? You’re not actually governed by a higher vote that you might cast, which is to be a virtuous, moral person? My point is that we are putting an awful lot of pressure on ourselves. People are making an awful lot of enemies out of friends and family over a stupid electio….Continue

Are Johnson Voters Guilty of Electing Obama?

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

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - The question being asked in American elections these days is a rigged question. The only thing that’s left to be decided by our universal suffrage is how much of your property is going to be taken from you for public consumption. That’s not what a free people does. The question has already gone before us. We already answered the question that we do not own our property, that all government at some le….Continue

We're Still Driving Right Towards That Fiscal Cliff

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

Mandeville, LA -Exclusive Transcript - There is no denying the careening train is still headed towards that fiscal cliff we talked about the other day, and it’s going to go over it at what speed? Some say 120 miles an hour. Some people say if we elect Romney we’re going to slow it down to 20. If you slow it down to 20, you probably won’t even go over. Maybe the first car or two will go over, but you won’t have enough inertia to drag an entire 60-car-long train over….Continue

The Mathematics of Voting

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

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Audio and Video - There appears to be no mathematical formula to voting that DOESN'T lead to Obama, because apparently, a vote for anyone other than the two major candidates is a vote for Obama. So THEREFORE, a vote for Gary Johnson is a vote for Obama, a vote for Virgil Goode is a vote for Obama, or a vote for ANYONE ELSE would be a vote for Obama. So let's see one of our mathematician listeners out there work out a f….Continue

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Audio and Transcript - What exactly is conservative about voting for TARP, about the GM/Chrysler bailout, about voting for the Medicare Part D, voting for and supporting afterwards the “No Child Gets an Education” Act and supporting endeavors in federal education?  These things are all patently unconstitutional.  I will give anyone credit for saying if the choice is between doing a buttload of harm with Obama/Biden….Continue

[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

John Taylor of Caroline from his 1814 book "An Inquiry Into the Principles & Policy of the Government of the United States"
