Our Founding Fathers and the Constitution

sign foundin gathers

I have begun to read:

The 5,000 Year Leap

A Miracle That Changed the World

W. Cleon Skousen

It is a book Glenn Beck recommends every American Patriot read.  All I will say about Glenn Beck is that thank God we have him telling us what is going on and reminding us the importance of reaching back into history to foundationally remember the birth of our nation.

Glenn Beck has written the forward for this book.  He recalls his "aha" moment while in Manhattan.  He says, "We the People" in the Declaration of Independence stands out as a "beacon".  I believe too it is a beacon of light to guide us back to American principles.  At this moment we live in a time when it seems our American spirit is lost and needs to be rekindled and taken home.  

Glenn Beck says:

"The words of our Founding Fathers have a way of reaching across any political divide. They are words of wisdom that I can only describe as divinely inspired. They are here for us to help solve the unsolvable—and they are the reason why we have for so long been the greatest nation on earth."

The sacrifices and time spent by the men who debated, agreed, and then debated again just to ensure we, over 200 plus years later, would be able to live with freedom of choice; they set up a government of the people for the people.

Ronald Reagan quotes: 

"Our natural, inalienable rights are now considered to be a dispensation from government, and freedom has never been so fragile, so close to slipping from our grasp as it is at this moment."

Study the Founding Fathers, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and The Articles of Declaration.  There is power in knowledge-make yourself knowledgeable.  I am going to learn whatever I can muster in a day.  Even a half hour of study a day is better than ignorance.

"On Monday, some of us talked about the death of our great Nation. It is now Tuesday, and our Nation is VERY alive and we are angry, determined and tenacious! We have awakened from our shocked state to realize that our Founding Fathers MEANT for us to win this war against our freedom! Why did we think it would be that easy? I believe that in our hearts, we knew this struggle would not be! We have history to guide us: From Adams....to Franklin...and Jefferson...to Paine...to Washington--none of them had it that easy! And there were failures time and time again for them...horrible failures that included loss of life that we have not experienced! But these were men of FAITH, men of COURAGE, men of HOPE (and let's not forget CHARITY!). The opportunity and GIFTS we have in this country is a direct result of their efforts and BELIEF IN GOD. And now we need to give back to those brave men the gift of keeping it!"

I couldn't  have said it any better!

It is only just the beginning...

From the President of the Unites States of America, March 21, 2010
"Tonight, at a time when the pundits said it was no longer possible, we rose above the weight of our politics. We pushed back on the undue influence of special interests. We didn't give in to mistrust or to cynicism or to fear. Instead, we proved that we are still a people capable of doing big things and tackling our biggest challenges. We proved that this government -- a government of the people and by the people -- still works for the people."

How telling is this!


...we rose above the weight of our politics...
You sure did Mr. President.  You didn't care about the rules or the process, the end justifies the means!

We pushed back on the undue influence of special interests.
Yes, Mr. President, the special interests were the American people who were telling you they did not want YOUR health care bill. 

We didn't give in to mistrust or to cynicism or to fear.
You are the one to fear!

 ..capable of doing big things and tackling our biggest challenges.
Mr. President you did mean to say ...you are capable of lieing and buying votes to get what you want.

 ...still works for the people.
Mr. President you didn't work for the people.  You didn't even hear what they were saying.
