We Cannot Keep This Republic If We Allow It to Be Undermined from Within

This leads me to ask you, the reader, the following: can our constitutional republic survive? My response is simple, no, not if the current level of ignorance prevails and is accepted. If we do not teach the writings of those whom our Founding Fathers read – John Locke, Montesquieu, and others – to establish this nation, then we have no concept of natural rights theory, unalienable rights from the Creator, three co-equal branches of government, or checks and balances. If there are those who embrace the notion that our rule of law, our Constitution is just a recommendation not to be heeded when confronted by their ideological agenda, then unequivocally no, we will not keep this republic. And mind you, America is the longest running constitutional republic the world has ever known. America is not a democracy, and those saying so are a product of a failing education system. When we fail to recognize the enumerated powers endowed to our respective branches of the federal government – Article I (Legislative), Article II (Executive), and Article III (Judicial) – our republic is threatened. If we do not read and understand the Bill of Rights, those first ten amendments that had to be included for the Constitution’s ratification, our Republic is in danger – that includes the Second Amendment.

Ponder this: the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) was, and still is, an unconstitutional executive action. The enumerated power on matters regarding naturalization and immigration are expressly designated to the legislative branch in Article I of our Constitution, not Article II. As well, it is not the place of the judicial branch, Article III, to issue any decision demanding a subsequent presidential administration to abide by an executive order of a previous one. Furthermore, Article III confers the responsibility on the judicial branch to interpret our laws according to the Constitution. But DACA is not a law. It is an unconstitutional executive action. Perhaps if we brought back civics, more Americans would understand that.

The Judicial branch does not make law. Hence why I find it absurd, unconstitutional, that anyone would abide by the Supreme Court saying that same-sex marriage is the law of the land based upon a 5-4 decision in the Obergfell v. Hodges case. Five unelected jurists do not make law in our constitutional republic

Now, I will ask a second question: is the undermining of our Constitution intentional, or just a simple oversight? My response is, again, simple: it is intentional. There is a reason why many Americans do not know that today is Constitution Day. There is a reason why our Founding Fathers who gave us this blessed constitutional republic are being attacked, assailed, demonized, and disparaged. There is a reason why we no longer teach civics, as it has been replaced by social studies. (What the heck does that even mean?) It means a system of ideological indoctrination is being taught within the halls of our schools. There is a reason why the left in America wants control of academia, our schools, and our courts.
