Summary

After a brief introduction, we replay last year’s blockbuster special July 4 show. I explain why the Constitution has basically become irrelevant and why the Declaration is now the more important document to guide us. We go in depth into the five major principles of the Declaration and apply them to our times. But it is the sixth principle – the right to throw off a tyrannical government – that matters. Unlike our founders, we don’t even need to fight a violent war to win our liberty back. It just takes some focus and political courage, yet those who call themselves conservatives are selfish and are perpetuating tyranny. Today, I lay down the gauntlet for the rest of the “conservative" movement. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

2:00.4	Daniel Webster, famous senator and lawyer, he said the following,
2:05.4	every man's heart swells within him, every man's port and bearing becomes somewhat more
2:11.9	proud and lofty as he remembers that 75 years have rolled away and that the great
2:19.2	inheritance of liberty is still his, his undiminished and unimpaired, his in all its original
