Summary

Christian men are getting involved in politics more than ever before. Whether it was reading Stephen Wolfe’s book or watching their mayor approve a pride parade that radicalized them, these men are realizing that pursuit of political office is a high calling. The founding fathers of America spoke highly of political office, considering it not merely a job or hobby, but a weighty responsibility. James Madison said the first aim of every political body should be to find men with the “most wisdom to discern and the most virtue to pursue the common good of the society.”



But actually doing politics is not easy. If you’ve watched House of Cards or All The President's Men you actually have a pretty good idea of how cutthroat and ruthless politics can be. And here joining us today is Luis Canosa — a city council member right here in Irving, Texas. Since being elected a year ago he has been fighting tooth and nail against dark money, paid protestors, and even private investigators that all want to turn his hometown of Irving into the next tax farm for gambling and sports resorts.



This episode is brought to you by our premier sponsors, Armored Republic and Reece Fund, as well as our Patreon members and donors. You can join our Patreon at patreon.com/rightresponseministries or donate at rightresponseministries.com/donate.



So if you are considering running for office and want to know what it takes to win a campaign and legislate effectively, tune in now to hear firsthand how politics really works.
