Our Lost Constitution

[Webster]

In Our Lost Constitution, Senator Mike Lee tells the dramatic, little-known stories behind six of the Constitution’s most indispensable provisions. He shows their rise. He shows their fall. And he makes vividly clear how nearly every abuse of federal power today is rooted in neglect of this Lost Constitution. Examined are the Origination Clause, the Legislative Powers Clause, the Establishment Clause, the Balance of Powers and the Second and Fourth Amendments. Each has been used at some time in our Nation’s history by shortsighted opportunists to defy the Constitution’s safeguards to liberty.
Sections of the Constitution may have been forgotten, but it’s not too late to bring them back – if only we remember why we once demanded them and how we later lost them. Drawing on his experience working in all three branches of government, Senator Lee makes the case for resurrecting the Lost Constitution to restore and defend our fundamental liberties.

Looks interesting Will have to listen to this in my van today.

Where's the right to a fair and equal education?

Nowhere hopefully. It is up to you with the freedoms you have to get your own education just like water, food a home and supposed to be health care also.

Nowhere in the U.S. Constitution...education, Dee, is supposed to be the responsibility of the states, not the federal government.

Elementary and secondary school is free. Should we change that and start charging?

I still highly disagree considering we loooooove to come together as a nation for other things. But if that's the case, then let's break up into 50 different countries.

If the free people of your state and not the federal government choose to charge parents for a education then yes. Hell then that would mean I would no longer be forced to pay taxes under the power of a gun for something I do not use. And if you do not want to pay for your childs schooling then you have two choices home school or do not have children.

At this stage in the game of how much the left has obliterated the Constitution I am very much for Florida being it's own country.

Given the past 6+ years, that might not be a bad idea...

I'm all for it, but only so that I may find a country I can live in that isn't completely and utterly ignorant, small-minded, bigoted, and heartless.

Too bad we're not a true democracy; if only the Off Topixnets were voting, I'm confident you'd get your wish...


...by a landslide.

You never know we are only short a few states for a convention of the states and could get something very unexpected out of it.
