Reverend, or anyone else who hasn't read the Constitution - I'd suggest that you do before it's literally shredded right before our eyes (almost there...)

The founding fathers were more about liberty and a government that "fears" the people rather than the other way around. People shouldn't fear their government. Freedom is something of which this country was founded on, yet both state and federal government are taking away our freedoms little by little.
Granted, we live in a society today that's completely different than say - 1770; but the fact of the matter is that the very document and law of this country is overlooked on a daily basis. It's not because of LIBERALS.. it's not because of CONSERVATIVES - it's because we're losing sight of freedom for all, and a government that respects its citizens.
Then again, this country is full of all different types of people - is a compltely free nation possible? Absolutely not. The only possible way that we can be truly free is if everybody was united for a common cause, both government and people. The bottom line is the people should have more power than the government.

... and that's the problem today. and it has been since 1913. The Federal Reserve system is mostly a private bank, and has been producing money at their own will, inflating our currency (hidden tax), and is now giving TRILLIONS of dollars to foreign banks. Our country has been hijacked by elite bankers and corporate heads.

This is not a free country - we're slaves to the banks. It's obvious..

Here's some good quotes from Thomas Jefferson:

A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine.

A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.

Educate and inform the whole mass of the people... They are the only sure reliance for the preservation of our liberty.

Every citizen should be a soldier. This was the case with the Greeks and Romans, and must be that of every free state.

Every generation needs a new revolution.

Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny.

For a people who are free, and who mean to remain so, a well-organized and armed militia is their best security.
