Shakespeare wrote that if you wanted to overthrow the governemnt you first had to kill all the lawyers. Only with ignorance of the rights under the law coupled with the absence of a core of people to defend those rights could you ever hope to overthrow the king.

Its a common misperception.

What is needed is more public education and REGISTERED VOTERS.

The adoption of UNreatified international treaties by the judges up for nomination should be a litmust test question.
(specter is totally incompetent in this regard)

"What is needed is more public education"
I disagree. "Public education" is a major reason that children grow up to become anti-American socialists because they are and were taught by anti-American socialists! e.g. Ward Churchill

I would argue that what we need is more home schooling in America!

The reference to Shakespeare was more of a reminder that these views (above and reflected by Will) have been around for a long time - not designed to be a subversive or seditious call for indescriminate murder. Hell, Jefferson makes the case very well in his observation that the judiciary as envisioned in the Constitution represented the most vulnerable aspect of the new Federal state! As usual, his words have proven prophetic.

Education? I am assuming you do NOT mean that abortion delivered by the NEA - but rather a pre-multiculturalist education in which the values of our Judeo-Christian society and those enshrined in the Constitution are taught. NOT the BS the ACLU and NEA are dishing out.

Yup - VOTE! - Intelligently.
