Day 5: Constitutional and Structural Changes

Updating the Nation’s Operating System

 

Every constitution, then, and every law, naturally expires at the end of 19 years.  If it be enforced longer, it is an act of force and not of right. 
Thomas Jefferson

Day 4 Join!

    Remove the prayers and I’ll be there.. ABSOLUTE Separation of church and state MUST be reiterated, this time in no uncertain terms. The founding fathers got a lot of things right: Freedom of Speech, Right to bare arms (The Second Amendment guarantees the First against the tyranny of government ) and separation of church and state. The magic man in the sky only serves to divide, and a house divided, can not stand!

      I think there is room for agreement on this issue. What prayers are you envisioning? We are not proposing we have the Pope show up and bless the crowd. Prayers in this case refer to something much more universal. Perhaps something by a Hopi Indian Chief or an Alaskan Tribal leader. Please don’t assume that it will be utterly distasteful or inappropriate. Rather, take the idea and develop it into something that is much more agreeable to everyone. Remember, this is YOUR Congress, not mine. Better we engage in constructive ideas than just opt out over a single issue. A very large groups will have a variety of opinions, so it all requires some give and take, some healthy discussion is required.. Peace A. Nonymous.

Elizabeth Warren

Elizabeth Warren

Elizabeth Warren’s dedication and impeccable methods in research were used extensively to create the (CFPB) Consumer Financial Protections Bureau. In fact, Ms. Warren’s work is so discouraging to corporate interests that she moved aside so that Richard Cordray could head the agency. The end result is that now Ms. Warren is running to become part of congress. The people could not ask for a better leader for liberty.
