Today on Foundations of Freedom Thursday we look at some listener questions- If financial transactions can be secure, why not elections? If Liberia has a similar constitution, why haven’t they experienced the same prosperity as the United States? What happens if a presidential candidate doesn’t receive enough electoral college votes? Louisiana passed a law saying that no foreign treaty will be able to influence the policy of the state. Is this constitutional?

Discover the pivotal role faith plays in shaping our culture and the mechanisms our Constitution provides to protect the cherished values of our republic. We delve into the world of election integrity, drawing parallels between the security of our votes and that of our financial transactions. Grapple with the necessity of virtue within our electorate and consider how morality underpins the very fabric of our electoral system.

Venture with us into the digital battlefield where the preservation of our republic hangs in the balance. We recount tales of encryption keys left unguarded, equating such cybersecurity lapses to inviting thieves into the bank vault. We confront the harsh truth that the integrity of our systems relies heavily on the character of those who operate them.

Wrap your mind around the intricacies of the U.S. presidential election process, as we unravel the Founding Fathers' foresight in crafting a system prepared for even the rarest of political conundrums. We dissect the delicate dance of power between state and federal jurisdictions, highlighting Louisiana's determined stance to keep external forces from dictating its laws. Injecting a dose of humor, we muse on the vast reach of executive actions, inviting you to ponder the implications of political decisions on personal debt and the sovereignty of our nation. Join us for an enlightening exploration of the principles that keep our great nation steadfast through the storms of change.
