There are numerous problems with our country and how the government runs today which need fixing. At the federal level, in particular, many problems are most easily recognized. What to do to fix D.C. are various and wide ranging. Here, I wish to address the idea of an Article V convention of the state’s idea […]
“Sanctify the LORD of hosts himself; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.” I’ve been under the impression that both of our modern political parties were rotten, particularly at the nation level and probably to the core. At the same time I haven’t quite known what to make of what […]
What is wrong with our Constitution? Absolutely Nothing! There is nothing wrong with our Constitution but there is something wrong with the people we have elected to enforce its rules. Here is an example of why our country is in deep trouble. This is a recent quote from our President ‘More than half the women […]
Have We Lost the Source of Truth? I have seen a number of articles and essays that tell us that our Constitution had its origins from Cicero, Plato and other thinkers and rulers of the Greek and Roman period. They add the thinking of the “enlightenment period” of the eighteenth century that provided the wisdom […]
Why do you suppose the First Amendment says, “Congress shall make no law…” while the Second Amendment says, “shall not be infringed”? Clearly, there is a difference in these statements. One limits a specific entity of government while the other is a blanket and all-encompassing statement. The right to keep and bear arms as recognized […]
America was founded by religious Christians who believed the Bible and followed it in their daily lives. We have gradually reached the point where Christianity has no place in public discourse.

Many have felt that the federal government has usurped powers that were not delegated to it, as well as commandeered the powers delegated to the state and the people respectively. We feel a loss of freedom, while the federal government is growing more and more socialistic. In exasperation, many have suggested the need to call […]
In 1983, Idaho was one of 27 states that petitioned Congress to call an Article V Constitutional Convention (con-con) to add a Balanced Budget Amendment. 34 States needed to make that Call before Congress acts. In 1989, 32 states had applied to Congress to convene a con-con. Still two states short. That year, I brought […]
President Biden’s vaccine mandate is unconstitutional. He issued two Executive Orders on September 9, 2021 requiring Covid-19 vaccination. I would like to layout just one concept, the Constitutionality of his Executive Orders. The Constitution does permit the issuance of executive orders, but their function is limited, and not intended for establishing laws. The first message […]
My fellow citizens: Please do what you can to hold Governor Little accountable to implement the action called for in this letter I sent him yesterday. The Emergency Use Authorization process has been weaponized to control our citizens and over-ride the Bill of Rights. If these mandates are allow to stand, there will be no […]
