"The Founders knew that we would have politicians who would resort to all kinds of tricks in order to get what they want. They also knew that we had to protect ourselves from that.
But our approach to government today is completely different.Most Americans know that a lot of politicians are corrupt but we don’t bother to do anything protect ourselves from them.
We keep giving the federal government more and more power and we allow our politicians to ignore the Constitution; then we just hope that enough of our public officials will be good people who won’t do anything bad to us.
Think about what happened just a couple of weeks ago.
We allowed President Barack Obama to unilaterally sign an agreement with Iran without getting Congressional approval.
What is there to prevent this president – or any future president – from abusing that power? Nothing!"
