Hillary is continuing the great tradition of presidential candidates…

Presidential candidates and presidents always lie. For the past 100+ years, from Wilson to FDR to Truman and up to Obama, they have lied repeatedly about taxes, spending, regulations, and war. (More to come in future posts)
“Does Hillary Clinton possess the integrity and honesty to be president of the United States? Or are those quaint and irrelevant considerations in electing a head of state in 21st-century America?”

Taxpayer funding of religious institutions declared unconstitutional in New Jersey

Virally all spending by government is unconstitutional. This is one of the most flagrant examples. Taking money from people (taxation) to pay for spending that violates people’s consciences is sufficient reason to end the funding or make it voluntary Government schools, known as public schools, is the best example of the improper use of taxpayer dollars. Schools, no matter how they are structured, should be funded by fees, scholarships, private grants, donations. etc.

If the nation’s oldest civil libertarian organization was consistent, they would be advocating more libertarian proposals. Then, the freedom/liberty revolution would have a great ally.
“It’s time to stop sweeping consenting adult sex workers into the criminal justice system. We need models that protect their rights, their health and their safety.”

What becoming a citizen means to me

Jul
I sent the following letter to The Record yesterday about a July 4th swearing in of new citizens.
Regarding “Sworn on the Fourth of July” (Page L-1, July 5):
The naturalization ceremony at Liberty State Park (a very apropos named venue) where a group of 21 individuals from many countries became U.S. citizens reminds me of the time I raised my right hand in lower Manhattan 57 years ago to pledge allegiance to my new country and uphold the principles of the U.S. Constitution.
Twice in the past decade I have spoken to newly naturalized citizens in Newark and at Ramapo College; the latter took place on Constitution Day, September 17. My remarks were quite simple. I said naturalized obligations have a special responsibility to our newly adopted unlike native-born Americans; we take an oath to uphold the Constitution, just like elected officials from the President of the United States to local officials.
We thus should make sure that our elected officials uphold their oath of office. Since June 25, 1959 when I raised my right hand before a judge in Lower Manhattan, I can say without equivocating that I have passionately defended the U.S. Constitution. I cannot say the same for presidents, members of Congress, Supreme Court Justices and others who have taken the oath to defend individual liberty, the core of the American experiment in self-government.
Since 1959 undeclared wars, trampling on individual rights, among other unconstitutional acts by politicians from both major political parties, shows clearly that our elected officials and justices have paid lip service to their oath of office.

America has retreated from the ideals of liberty and freedom.
“When I was a boy, one of my favorite holidays was Independence Day. I was an enthusiastic student of the War for Independence.”

So why do leftists and their fellow left-wing Republicans support gun control?
Another incident the mass media did not report. Wonder why?
“A man legally carrying his gun in a nightclub stoped a man illegally carrying a gun from shooting more people. Where is the media hype on this incident?”

Time to end the failed “war on drugs.”
“In April, openDemocracy was in New York to meet the Caravan Activists, a remarkable group of men and women, who have lost loved ones to the ‘war on drugs’. Now they campaign to change the system.”

Isn’t the Supreme Court decision the essence of racism, judging people by their color? Whatever happened to the goal of a color-blind society?
The 4-to-3 decision said officials may consider race of applicants in a limited way to build a diverse student body.
