An eloquent speaker, who is touting the usual conservative mantras.

By and large an enjoyable speech, however he fails to take his own advice in his closing remark which is to read history and understand it so you can move forward. The pledge wasn't "One Nation, under God." It was "One Nation Indivisible" until people in the 50's **** it up.

The pledge wasn't "one nation, indivisible, under God." It was "one nation indivisible" until one man in 1948 **** it up.

Edited for accuracy.

30 mins... TL;DW. Especially after the first mention of "A compelling gentleman, he loves Jesus" not even 10 seconds in.

Louis A. Bowman... At a meeting on February 12, 1948, Lincoln's Birthday, he led the Society in swearing the Pledge with two words added, "under God."

Which was as a political move to emphasize our difference from the Soviets, who, you know, restricted religious freedom?

Get the **** over it.

I'm very focused on education and getting the populace back to where it used to be -- like back in 1831 when Alexis de Tocqueville was so impressed -- because an uneducated populace will fall for anything.

And if you and you talk to most people, they mean well but they don't have much of a breadth of education, of knowledge, of understanding of what the real issues are and, therefore, they listen to pundits on television who tell them what they're supposed to think and they keep repeating that and pretty soon they say, 'Oh, well that must be true.'
