Our Founders were students of history, and they feared the tyranny of the majority. They feared mob rule, they feared pure democracy. America is a Democratic Republic, a representative republic.
Perhaps they just feared liberty, and its inevitable descent into tyranny. Perhaps that’s why our founders emphasized that the job of government is simply to preserve the rights that were originally given to man by God. Perhaps they understood that without some form of outside guidance from an unquestioned authority, any system we used would end in tyranny.
Many of our Founders were men of faith or were influenced strongly by the Judeo-Christian tradition. They accepted the premise of mankind’s imperfect nature. They had experienced first-hand the oppressive dictates of Parliament and the Crown that led to the American Revolution. And they were rightly suspicious of the accumulation of governmental power by one person or a small body, the very definition of tyranny” according to James Madison.4
Consistent with these experiences and beliefs, the Founders imbued liberty-preserving principles into the very structure of the new government. They divided power between federal and state governments, apportioned federal power among three branches of government, and limited the power of the federal government to certain delegated functions. But the Founders also knew that these devices alone were inadequate to preserve and sustain our new nation.
Therefore John Adams declared, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” We must be a people, a nation submitted to the God of the bible.
One of the mantra’s of American Marxism is to never let a crisis go to waste, that is never let an opportunity to divide, cause confusion go to waste. President Obama famously said we are five day’s away from fundamentally changing America. I believe today we are witnessing that fundamental change. The Marxist want to usher in a New World Order with a weak America.
The Marxist teachings of Karl Marx and Frederick Engels, Saul Alinsky all point to the planned upheaval of the American society to fell a once great nation. How do you unravel a nation built on love of God, love of family patriotism and the rule of law?
