By faith Noah,being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear,prepared an ark to the saving of his house;by the which he condemned the world,and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith Heb.11:7
the constitution matters but you are still wasting your time. IT will never happen is all i'm saying. Its time wasted for whoever does.
Stand down, Bo. There is a difference between "defeatism" and "picking your battles". This one is a flat-out, no-doubt, LOSER. All it does is play into the hands of the antis, permitting them to continue to paint us all as a bunch of wild-eyed lunatics to be laughed at and not taken seriously.
Have you noticed how this issue, together with Prof. Gates and "beergate(s)" have taken over the headlines and sucked up the collective attention? Who do you think benefits from that?
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same. - Ronald Reagan
Okay, boys. You go knock 'em dead.
I'll exert my energies where they may actually do something good and won't lend any credence to the anti's assertions that we are all a bunch of wackos.
But you guys just keep on tilting agin them there windmills...

John Jay letter to George Washington, 25 July 1787
New-York, 25th July, 1787.
Dear Sir,
Permit me to hint whether it would not be wise and seasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of foreigners into the administration of our national government ; and to declare expressly that the command in chief of the American army shall not be given to, nor devolve on any but a natural born citizen.
I remain, dear sir,
Your faithful friend and servant,
John Jay.
