Politicians nowadays treat Americans like medical orderlies treat Alzheimer's patients, telling them anything that will keep them subdued. It doesn't matter what untruths the people are fed because they will not long remember. But in politics, forgotten falsehoods almost guarantee new treachery.

Voting is no substitute for the eternal vigilance that every friend of freedom must demonstrate towards government. If our freedom is to survive, Americans must become far better informed of the dangers from Washington -- regardless of who wins the Presidency.

For the average person walking down a dark street late at night, a promise from a politician is worth far less than a .38 Special.

Entire generations of Americans have come of age since the ancient time when the president's power was constrained by a duty of candor to the American people.

Foreign aid breeds kleptocracies, or governments of thieves.

There has been so much power concentrated. There is no leash on that power anymore and Americans face the situation that this power is getting momentum with each passing year with each presidency.

The more that voting is glorified as a panacea, the more lackadaisical people become about preserving their constitutional rights.
