This is the first one where the system is pretty much abused and in many respects ignored by the left. Also,no president has had so much against him by rogue citizens and the rogue government.

What ever party loses this election will never revive!

That’s why the democrats have pulled out all stops, even if it kills the economy and the people.

As a retired military historian and Army officer, I recommend watching this video presentation by Dr. Hanson made on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of VJ Day.

Of great concern to me is the nature of being a U.S. citizen as opposed to a citizen of the world. Also our current practice of sufferage which does not even require a most basic understanding of citizenship. A Constitutional Republic will not long last if its citizens are ignorant on these points. Public schools have failed to instill proper respect for citizenship. We will get the spanking we deserve if we do not wise up.

And if you don’t want to watch the entire hour, I recommend watching his speech between the 30 to 37 minute mark and then then question/answer period from 56 min mark to the end.

That is where he gets into how the radical Dems plan to erase our republic and replace it with a mob’ocracy.

No,,,,watch the whole thing. It is priceless.

Unfortunately we won’t ever get a chance to vote for a guy like this.

I agree it is best to watch then entire lecture and the questions, but I figured there were folks who might not want to take an hour, thus keyed on what I though were his most important points.

Is there an audio file of this anywhere, so people can listen to it in their vehicles to and from work?
