America must learn to tell what is true from false.

Whatever the people believe is true?

“True glory takes root, and even spreads; all false pretences, like flowers, fall to the ground; nor can any counterfeit last long.” – Marcus Tullius Cicero

Hillary's allies now say the Russians gave the election to Trump. Absurd, of course, but they never sought to prove any of it. Instead they focused, childlike, on who rather than what, part of their campaign against reality.

Donald Trump accepting the 2016 Republican nomination. A vote for him was a vote for freedom. He owes his victory to the electoral college. He also now leads the armies of freedom in their war against the socialists. But he needs to learn now: the other side are playing without rules. His latest stand against illegal immigration further illustrates the problem. More recently: Trump should bury the DACA order and leave it buried.

Electoral College: stroke of statecraft

“We too [in Israel] need an electoral college,” says Avi Berkowitz (Jerusalem Post December 11, 2016).

When enemies of God agree

“Human passions unbridled by morality and religion…would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net.” – John Adams

Donald Trump has raised expectations. His State of the Union message satisifed some and raised others. To satisfy them, he must drain the swamp in and of the federal government itself. To make America great again he must re-establish the rule of law. Now he's taking a gamble--with tariffs.

Alexander Hamilton, who brilliantly explained the Commerce Clause and our Presidential system. He also saw the danger in a man without a theory. He is a prize example of American exceptionalism and the statesmanship that produced it. And also such things as the electoral college. Sadly, he also founded paper money, the bane of a free republic.

Hillary Clinton and the ship of state

“Tyranny is defined as that which is legal for the government but illegal for the citizenry.” Thomas Jefferson was correct. And Hillary Clinton proves it.

Wrap fish withal! (Does the CIA run this show?) That's what The Washington Post, CNN, and most other Mainstream Media are good for. An empire of lies. And they dare call the rest of us fake news. They can't even cover disasters, like tornadoes, without discriminating among their victims. Worse, the news media are attempting a coup against the rest of us with their lies.
