| 0:00.0 | We stand undivided, forever united, fighting hand in hand for the liberty we burn, for glory and honor, for our sons and daughters, ever mine. |
| 0:30.0 | All right, full of the lessons we've learned, let the Georgia freedom burn. |
| 0:46.0 | Welcome to the intersection of faith and politics. This is Wal-Builders Live with David Barton and Rick Green. Thank you for joining us today. |
| 0:51.0 | You're actually joining us in the middle of a four-part series on from Constitutional Live and it's on the presidency. |
| 0:57.0 | So if you missed the last couple of days, I encourage you to visit Wal-Builders Live.com. Just click on the archive section and you can listen to those last two programs. |
| 1:05.0 | Today we're going to pick up right where we left off yesterday. And just to set the context for you, if you are tuning in for the first time, this is part of Constitutional Live. |
| 1:13.0 | More information can be found out at constitutionalive.com. But that's the quick start guide to the Constitution that David Barton and I have done for you. |
| 1:21.0 | It's a chance to walk through the entire Constitution, every article, every amendment and study the original intent of what the Founding Fathers intended for us with the Constitution and how to properly restore that Constitution. |
| 1:33.0 | Let's pick up right where we left off yesterday. We've been talking about the presidency on Constitutional Live. |
| 1:39.0 | Remember what we said about consent of the government. The only just power of government comes from us. So if we will talk about the oath, I think it's a great idea to take the oath of office and give it to a candidate. |
| 1:49.0 | Say I want you to tell me how I'm going to know if you're upholding this oath so that they'll begin to think about it before they even get it in there. |
| 1:55.0 | I think most people that run for office today, they want to uphold the oath. They want to do a good job. I think sometimes we think the worst of everybody just because they're running for office. |
| 2:05.0 | I get to visit with a lot of people that are in office or running for office. And most of them want to do a good job. |
| 2:10.0 | A lot of times they end up voting that things that I would argue are unconstitutional just because they don't know. |
| 2:15.0 | So we're doing the most important part right now. We're getting educated. Now it's our job to go back and help get them educated and choose leaders that will take that oath seriously. |
| 2:24.0 | Yes ma'am. |
| 2:25.0 | January 3rd, 2011, they read the Constitution. |
| 2:30.0 | They did, yes. |
| 2:31.0 | Why? |
| 2:32.0 | It was great. In fact, she's talking about the opening of the congressional session in 2011. |
| 2:37.0 | We actually helped with making this happen. We were pushing for a little bit more stringent rules for the House whenever the new leadership came into the House. |
| 2:47.0 | We wanted them to require and they actually did require a constitutional provision to be pointed out in every bill that was offered in the legislature. |
