The poor Constitution itself is hardly paid any attention to. It's necessary to ignore it because most of what government does these days is clearly unconstitutional. The original idea, as expressed by James Madison, was that states would do 95 percent of the governing. Today, they are little more than administrative subdivisions of the central empire.

The politicians in this world... have at their command weapons of mass destruction far more complex than their own thinking processes.

I expect to see trade wars, foreign policy disasters, a few race riots, a decrease in personal liberty, higher taxes, higher inflation and probably, economic collapse. The silver lining is, secession will probably become more feasible.

And just think, fellow Southrons, what kind of a Confederate nation we could have, if after independence, politicians abandoned equivocation and spoke honestly and firmly on all issues? If they were to do their duty to God, nation, and people, there would be virtually no need for any form of federal litigation.

Disregarding the value of religion and believing in egalitarianism are two misconceptions that cause America much trouble today.

The truth is that neither British nor American imperialism was or is idealistic. It has always been driven by economic or strategic interests.

We...are not really free if we can't control our own government and its policies. And we will never do that if we remain ignorant.
