As the Article V movement grows, we COS volunteers are asked ever-more questions about Article V. While the COS website has a fine Q&A about the amendment process and safeguards, I wish to delve a little deeper here in support of a successful COS convention and subsequent state ratification debates. To the point, we will never make our goal, the return to free government, unless we are firmly grounded in Americas first principles and can explain them to others.
Our nation is searching for its soul. Few are aware of the Natural Law basis of our founding and governing system. It isnt taught in public schools or universities and is hardly found at all in popular media. To reassert the peoples sovereign authority and duty under Article V without educating the people as to their foundation, is something of a fools errand.
Along the way to a COS and state ratification debates, progressive opponents will not only be vocal within state houses, the amendments convention, and state ratification chambers, they will be a nuisance outside as well. Protesters, anarchists and a compliant media will make life difficult at best for those brave enough to oppose the Lefts dream of one-world government. Armed with intellectual strength, we will counter and overwhelm and their wrath.
The first principles of any system are axiomatic. Recall the first axioms of Euclidean Geometry are those which define points and lines. No subsequent theorem violates these first axioms. If it does, it isnt Euclidean geometry. Similarly, Christianitys prime axiom is the First Commandment, I am the Lord thy God. No teaching of any Church can contradict this premise and remain a Christian Church. The first principles of any system are thus not subject to legitimate challenge.

Most people, and i'm including Freepers, don't grasp the principles upon which this nation was founded. "Natural Law" is indeed it's foundation, but most people don't even know what that means.
They don't understand our foundation, and what's more, they don't want to understand it.
psy·cho·sissīˈkōsəs/noun
a severe mental disorder in which thought and emotions are so impaired that contact is lost with external reality.
"According to my opinion, and the opinions of many defectors of my caliber, only about 15% of time, money, and manpower is spent on espionage as such. The other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion, active measures, or psychological warfare. What it basically means is: to change the perception of reality of every American that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.It's a great brainwashing process which goes very slow and is divided into four basic stages.The first stage being "demoralization". It takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation. Why that many years? Because this is the minimum number of years required to educate one generation of students in the country of your enemy exposed to the ideology of [their] enemy. In other words, Marxism-Leninism ideology is being pumped into the soft heads of at least 3 generation of American students without being challenged or counterbalanced by the basic values of Americanism; American patriotism.Most of the activity of the department [KGB] was to compile huge amount / volume of information, on individuals who were instrumental in creating public opinion. Publisher, editors, journalists, uh actors, educationalists, professors of political science. Members of parliament, representatives of business circles.Most of these people were divided roughly into two groups: those who would tow the Soviet foreign policy, they would be promoted to positions of power through media and public manipulation; [and] those who refuse the Soviet influence in their own country would be character assassinated OR executed physically, come Revolution. "--KGB Defector Yuri Bezmenov--Soviet Subversion of the Free Press (Ideological subversion, Destabilization, CRISIS - and the KGB)

You may be right. But, we must make the effort nonetheless and press on!
Sadly, you are correct.
Most people, and i'm including Freepers, don't grasp the principles upon which this nation was founded. "Natural Law" is indeed it's foundation, but most people don't even know what that means.

That the "powers that be"...including many on our side (i.e. Mark Levin, Ted Cruz, Rush Limbaugh, etc), don't really care of our Natural Law founding was made abundantly clear during the usurpation by Barry Soetoro who could never have been considered a "natural born Citizen" regardless of his place of birth...wherever that really may have been.
It only suits them when there's a buck to be made (book, tv appearance, donors, etc).
That is one aspect of it. A refusal to accept the original intent of Federalism is another. The Federal Leviathan has grown and grown until now we have a deep-state/corporate defacto Aristocracy.
