The Administration is embarking on a new and troubling direction for our nation. Some are calling it the “Selling of America,” a surrendering of our national sovereignty and our constitutional framework, all in the interest of international cooperation.

Transnationalism is the new buzz word in the nation. It was first coined by Harold Koh, the president's nominee for top counsel in the U.S. State Department. Jay Sekulow, chief counsel of the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) is concerned about Harold Koh's nomination.

But then, what happens when the people do not stand up?

I have to believe that the silent majority will rise up eventually. The only problem is that our government may accomplish it a little at a time and the people won’t see it until it’s to late. At that point, it will get ugly and you won’t be able to trust anyone.
