RELIGION or POLITICS ? The Presidency and the Constitution

Greetings good people, tis mid-week and time keeps forging ahead, no matter, what is happening or what lies ahead that we might well not enjoy. What is happening is directly laid in the lap of George Soros, and in conjunction with, is our (yuck) President. Make no mistake, they want to wreck this country and will do it by knocking down the dollar to worthless level, and outrageous inflation.
All in direct opposition to the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. You remember this latter one don't you?

I have stuff relating to George Soros and what he is doing, but today, I want to bring you up to snuff on the subject headline, The Presidency and the Constitution. It may cover several blogs.

(The contents will be quoted from an Article by Mike Pence, U.S. representative from Indiana, a publication of Hillsdale College, called IMPRIMIS, out monthly, and in incredible source for Conservatism.)

The Presidency is the most visible thread that runs through the tapestry of the American government.  More of often than not, for good or for ill, it sets the tone for the other branches and spurs the expectations of the people. It's powers are vast and consequential, its requitements impossible for mortals to fulfill without humility and insistent attention to its purpose as set forth in the Constitution of the United States.

Isn't it amazing, given the great and momentous nature of the office, that those who seek it seldom pause to consider what they are seeking?  Rather, unconstrained by principle or reflection, there is a mad rush toward something that, once its powers are seized, the new president can wield as an instrument with which to transform the nation and the people according to his hightest aspirations.

But, other than in a crisis of the house divided, the presidency is neither fit nor intended to be such an instrument.  When it is made that, the country sustains a wound, and cries out justly and indignantly.   And what the nation says is the theme of this address.   What it says -- informed by its long history, impelled by the laws of nature and nature's God -- is that we as a people are not to be ruled and not to be commanded.  It says that the president should never forget this;  that he has not risen above us, but is merely one of us, chosen by ballot, dismissed after his term, tasked not to transform and work his will upon us, but to bear the weight of decision and to carry out faithfully the design laid down in the Constitution in accordance with the Declaration of Independence.


Now people, please read this carefully, because there is much more, and you will not want to lose the continuity.  When all this is completed, you will clearly see what we have up there in Washington, doing exactly opposite to what he is supposed to and voted in office to do.    Thanks for reading, stay with me, ok,    Cheers    CJ
