You will notice that Article I Section 8 of the Constitution has eighteen powers given to Congress that I numbered for ease of knowing which power is under study. I have provided these 18 congressional powers for you to study as I present over the next weeks many blogs that are from sections in my book, Hell’s Fork Advances, America’s Warning. Consider Theses Freedom ThoughtsIt is of utmost importance that you study the eighteen powers of Congress enumerated in Article I Section 8. I have studied these over and over and I am certain that if you study them with your political biases removed from your mind, and again read as you consider our country’s major problems, you will come to understand why we have so many problems in our country. I ask, what is the solution that will in someway solve these problems? Or could it be possible that there is no solution? Or perchance there are many solutions, but nobody cares to institute even one of them? Of course there is a solution that I will find hard not to give at least a hint, for there are several chapters in Hell’s Fork Advances devoted to the only solution. Think about this, if the Constitution is changeable to mean anything different today from what the Founding Fathers meant it to be forever, then your present government of elected and non-elected officials follow no written law and are a group of lawless thugs bent on a total control binge to rule over their servants, which is what they consider all of you to be. It does not matter if politicians disagree with the Constitution, it is the law of the land that must be obeyed or despotic caused chaos will rule over you and every other American. Judges may have biases, they may hate the Constitution, but it does not matter, for all judges must rule by the law. Members of Congress or any president, though they despise the Constitution, each must obey it exactly as the Founding Fathers intended. We must insist on their obedience to the Law. Consider America’s Problems and follow these reasons. Most of We the People have been brainwashed by the education system. It starts at the college and law school level wherein communist professors have taught teachers, lawyers and political leaders the Socialistic/Communist doctrines that implore all their students to destroy our Constitution. Then these indoctrinated comrades implement their evil unconstitutional laws, rules and regulations on America, as all the while America’s brainwashed teachers spread their evil agenda to students everywhere; and the circle of socialistic/communism indoctrination continues. It is obvious that too many Americans believe that a socialistic or communist government will lead to utopia on earth. But historical facts from around the world show that Socialism/Communism controlled by evil men and evil women will send America into a third world economy; for every time a socialist/communist government rules over a country, devastating poverty captures all the people. America’s Warning Founding Father Quotes John Adams “We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge, or gallantry, would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” Benjamin Franklin “Man will ultimately be governed by God or by tyrants.” |
