"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton "We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan "A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792 "It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Any “Free Trade” Agreement that has to be negotiated in more secrecy than most wartime peace treaties bodes poorly for “freedom”....

The President has no numerated power of Executive agreements. Nor does Congress have the power to grant him such ability, unless the Constitution has been amended to give him such power.

The only numerated power a Pres has is with Treaties. Not even States can enter into any agreement with a foreign power without the consent of Congress.

[Amendment10]

"This later became known as the Congressional-Executive Act, which differentiated itself from a treaty which requires the 2/3 majority vote in the Senate. It is this Congressional-Executive Act that has been used for almost every American trade deal since the 1890’s."

FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument

Patriots need to understand that they need to check the constitutionality all official actions that that the federal government has ever done since the Constitution was ratified, the McKinley Tariff Act of 1890 which I think is the Congressional-Executive Act no exception . This is because there have been constitutional scandals since the George Washington was president. And activist justices were certainly alive and kicking when they gave Congress a green light for “creating new powers” for the president regarding tariffs in the late 1800s.

The bottom line is that any time that we hear about new powers in DC, if there’s no new constitutional amendment associated with those new powers then something is probably very wrong.

Again, “new powers” in DC have been happening since before the ink on the Constitution had dried.

It’s amazing to me how quickly people will trust Obama and our secretive,backroom dealing government just to lick the boots of one man.

You know, Cruz is just a man. He’s not Jesus. And He’s the ONLY ONE I trust.
