The Founding Fathers Denied The British Empire To Form The U.S. – Who Will Deny The American Empire?

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – There was a grand ruler, King George III. He had his own legislative body, two of them. He had Parliament, the House of Lords and the House of Commons.

Interview With Kevin Gutzman On Natural-Born Citizen And Republican Hypocrisy

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Just like with the incorporation doctrine, after I share it, then I am hectored and heckled. My integrity is assailed. Vattel is said to have been some sort of an 18th century quack that no one ever referred to in the United States and you and Gutzman can’t prove that. Then the subject of natural-born citizen is that nobody really cares about this unless […]

“Let’s Just Get Back To The Founders And The Constitution” Doesn’t Solve Our Problems

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – If you were to ask members of the founding generation, if you were to go back in time, if you could hop in the King Dude’s wayback machine and ask Richard Henry Lee: What do you think about this new constitution deal? How do you think this is going to turn out for your posterity and for future generations? He, with others, was mortified. […]

Are You A True Follower Of The Founding Fathers Or Just Going With The Crowd?

A Belief In Secession, Self-Government, and Rand Paul Are Dangerous To The State

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I would say to anyone that harbors this point of view, if you’re so convinced that it was the confederacy that was the antecedent for Hitler’s regime or for Lenin’s regime or for Mussolini’s regime and that’s what gave rise to it, then you might as well go across the next bridge and say it was Madison and Mason and Martin and Sherman and […]

We Have To Educate Ourselves As Did The Founders If We Want A New Generation Of Founding Fathers

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I think reading some of the great works of the latter part of the 18th century and early part of the 19th century, I think that’s a good place to start. One of the things that I’m learning as I continue to learn and study about this stuff, one of the things I learned is: Who did Madison read? Who was Jefferson reading? Jefferson […]

The Neo-Confederate Storm: Rand Paul, Jack Hunter, And All Those “Bigoted Southern Rebels”

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – The decepticon establishment -- you know them as neocons; I call them decepticons. This is just one of many things that’s going to be done in an effort to try and stop the rise of Senator Paul, because Paul poses an imminent threat. That’s how I view it, Andrew. You may not view it like that. You may view it as the good citizens […]

Faith Carried The Founding Fathers Through And It Can Carry Us Through, Too

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – The only way you can really stay the course, I think anyway, is through the exercise of your faith. Just know that this is part of my Lord’s plan for me.
