H'mmm?

If we're not meant to have midnight snacks - why is there a light in the fridge?

Incredible!

I've been around for a lot of years and I've never seen anything like this before.

The Electoral College

If you desire to live in a Constitutional America rather than a popular vote democracy you must understand why we have an electoral college. There are organizations in America, and indeed globally, who want you to be convinced that it should be done away with. This five minute video explains why it was devised by the Founders and why it is vital to our freedom and morality.

America is a Republic - not a Democracy. Very simply put as follows.

Republic vs. Democracy

Rule by Law vs. Rule by Majority

Just after the completion and signing of the Constitution, in reply to a woman's inquiry as to the type of government the Founders had created, Benjamin Franklin said, "A Republic, if you can keep it."

Not only have we failed to keep it, most don't even know what it is.

A Republic is representative government ruled by law (the Constitution). A democracy is direct government ruled by the majority (mob rule). A Republic recognizes the inalienable rights of individuals while democracies are only concerned with group wants or needs (the public good).

A Reality Check

A 5 minute video with a little sage advice.

The speech every college graduate needs to hear.

Parents too!

Weep No More

For so many years now we have been subjected to the wretched self-pity of a segment of our population who seem to want nothing more of our society than to have something to complain about. They offer a myriad of excuses for why they are downtrodden and held back from achievement. They can't get an education because they are only earning minimum wage or no wage at all. It's all nonsense really. No physically fit person in this country has an excuse not to learn. Forget about federal education, it only exists to prevent one from learning about something of value. It's a propaganda program and a government growth organization - it's certainly not about helping anyone. There exists a website who's avowed purpose is to allow anyone, regardless of race, color or creed to get a free education. Before any pitiable miscreant starts to make an excuse why it doesn't apply to them, I'm sure most have access to the latest technological devices and, if they don't, public libraries do. Check out www.khanacademy.org/. It's a non-profit educational organization created in 2006 by educator Salman Khan to provide "a free, world-class education for anyone, anywhere". The organization produces micro lectures in the form of YouTube videos. In addition to micro lectures, the organization's website features practice exercises and tools for educators. All resources are available for free to anyone around the world. All that is needed is the will to succeed!
