Power Reserved to the People: Leadership

Welcome to "Power Reserved to the People" ...

Given the utter lack of honest inquiry and reporting by the vast majority of the American media, I am going to "re-print" / post here, the information they refuse to report.

My posts will include stories dealing with our out of control governments, local, state and federal; the out of touch self- aggrandize & self-appointed "ruling class"; the fraud that is global warming; the effort of radical Islam to destroy the western world and the seemingly endless absurdities that because of they happen with such regularity that we hardly pay attention to them. It is my hope that by posting these stories, others may come across them and be informed.

The basic premise of this blog is the same as the foundation of our country ...

ALL RIGHTS ARE BESTOWED ON ALL MEN (PEOPLE) BY GOD AND NOT FROM ANY GOVERNMENT. AMONG THOSE ARE THE RIGHT TO LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS.

SINCE OUR GOVERNMENT WAS FOUNDED BY THE PEOPLE AND ALL POWERE GIVEN TO THE STATE IS GIVEN BY THE GOVERNED, THE PEOPLE, NO GOVERNMENT HAS A RIGHT THAT THE INDIVIDUAL DOES NOT POSSESS.

"In the first place, it is to be remembered, that the general government is not to be charged with the whole power of making and administering laws: its jurisdiction is limited to certain enumerated objects, which concern all the members of the republic, but which are not to be attained by the separate provisions of any."

- James Madison, 1787 - Federalist No. 14

This blog is dedicated to the random thoughts of the writer and those of the visitors regarding our country and all that effects it.

From reminders of our Founding Father's words of wisdom and the Persdonal Liberty and Individual Responsibility our country was intended to promote. These basic principles are among several reasons the Unites States of America became the greatest force for good the world has ever seen, all in less than 230 years.

"Were we directed from Washington when to sow, and when to reap, we should soon want bread."

- Thomas Jefferson, 1821

I will also be reporting impressions from and of the millions of like minded Americans who love their country and want it to return to it's founding roots. This blog will also deal in exposing the death-wish and idiocy that is the Progressive mindset of most in the political class in our country.

"It is a misfortune incident to republican government, though in a less degree than to other governments, that those who administer it, may forget their obligations to their constituents, and prove unfaithful to their important trust." --James Madison

Remember, it is not a Democrat or Republican thing. The only difference in the two major parties is that one wants to take us to the nightmarish world of Progressivism on the back of a mule while the other is taking us there on the back of a race horse. Either way, it's not good.

We The People of the United States ... it is our country and those who work in the federal government work for us ... remember?
