About That Previous Presidential Election
Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of
Law in St. Paul , Minnesota ,
points out some interesting facts concerning the last Presidential election:
Number of States won by: Obama: 19 McCain: 29
Square miles of land won by: Obama: 580,000 McCain: 2,427,000
... Population of counties won by: Obama: 127 million McCain: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Obama: 13.2 McCain: 2.1
Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory McCain won was
mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country.
Obama territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in low income
tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."
Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the
"complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy,
with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached
the "governmental dependency" phase.
If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal
invaders called illegal's - and they vote - then we can say goodbye to the
USA in fewer than five years.
If you are in favor of this, then by all means, delete this message.
If you are not, then pass this along to help everyone realize just how much is at
stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our freedom..
This is truly scary!
Of course we are not a democracy, we are a Constitutional Republic .
Someone should point this out to Obama.

Federalism
"We're constantly told that
the way to fix the country is to dethrone the left and right and empower the
middle. ...
What if instead the solution is to
disempower the national elites who think they've got the answers to everything?
Federalism -- the process whereby you push most political questions to the
lowest democratic level possible -- has been ripe on the right for years now.
It even had a champion in Texas Gov. Rick Perry, and Ron Paul still carries
that torch.
The main advantage of federalism
is more fundamental than the so-called 'laboratories of democracy' idea.
Federalism is simply the best political system ever conceived of for maximizing
human happiness. A one-size-fits-all policy imposed at the national level has
the potential to make very large numbers of citizens unhappy, even if it was
arrived at democratically. ...
A left-right federalist compromise
would make America a happier, freer, more prosperous and interesting country.
It would also dethrone those in both parties who think they know what's best
for more than 300 million Americans."
--columnist Jonah GoldbergFrom The Gipper
"[I]t doesn't require
expropriation or confiscation of private property or business to impose
socialism on a people. ...
The government can find some charge to bring against any concern it chooses to prosecute. Every businessman has his own tale of harassment. Somewhere a perversion has taken place. Our natural, inalienable rights are now considered to be a dispensation of government, and freedom has never been so fragile, so close to slipping from our grasp as it is at this moment."
