Thanks. That’s definitely more condensed than the biography of him at the link.

“Ultra right edition” means that any mention of phrases like “shall not be infringed” are printed in bold face.

At least people are reading the damn Constitution.

Reading != comprehension; not that the plain English of the Const. requires so much abstract thought either...

Maybe (hope) some will get down to the 5th and 13th and start asking questions that won’t bode well for the next Town Hall meeting

If real Americans read their Constitution as religiously as real Christians read their Bible, this nation wouldn’t be in the deep $hit it’s in.

Dead wrong, I’m afraid. 100yrs.+ ago, you had a Nation that knew BOTH. Alone, waves of immigrants knowing the (C) back\forwards.

Yet, they still allowed all that culminates today: 16th (which, IMO, is void vs. 5th/13th), ‘gun control’, SS, MediXYZ, Fed. Reserve, Welfare State, explosive growth of Dept\Agencies outside of A1S8...

And, not a shot fired in the coup.

The Constitution is “Ultra-Right”?
What the hell kind of a world has this become?


Agreed - the Constitution should NOT be right-wing!

The book’s notes and annotations are by W. Cleon Skousen, a rabidly anti-Communist ideologue who took to rewriting history to support his ultra-right, Bible-based theories.

1) I don't know about the "rabid" thing. It sounds like the kind of polemical phraseology that should have died when the Soviet Union passed on.

2) If you have to be rabid about something, anti-Communism isn't the worst option you could choose.

3) Sure, Skousen was a nut, but he took his main theory from Bill Clinton's old professor Carroll Quigley. There may have been more questionable additions, but in essence Skousen turned Quigley on his head, taking what Quigley said and calling what Quigley liked bad and what Quigley hated good.

That’s a great poster, I’ve never seen that before.

Short, concise, accurate, and interesting to look at.

Post it often!

During those days America would not allow “certain” people into the country, ie, people with TB, syphilis, and other communicable diseases.
Our government also put a stop to immigration for some years because the people were not integrating and were keeping their own languages. When the government saw people integrating, they opened the gates to immigration again.
Read Jefferson’s handling of the muslims along the Mediterranean Sea between the coasts of Morocco, Algiers, Tripoli. Of course that was a time of real MEN, as compared to the girly boys we’ve elected to protect our America.
