Protect our remaining Liberties, and bring back those we have lost, by restoring the Constitution through the US House of Representatives.




























The late Dr. Larry McDonald, a Democrat Congressman from Georgia, wrote a book entitled "We Hold These Truths; A reverent review of the U.S. Constitution". Chapter XXI of the book is entitled "Restoring the Constitution". The following are the concluding paragraphs:

"... We presently have absolutely no chance to elect a President or a majority of Senators who would even want to restore genuine constitutional government. The Presidency and the Senate, and elections for them, are controlled by the powerful array of forces, including the mighty power of illicit government itself, determined to maintain all-powerful government and make it ever bigger and more powerful.
     For a long time, constitutionalists have been wasting their time and money trying to elect a good President or good Senators, not knowing their efforts were doomed to failure. At the same time, they have been neglecting the one political effort that could save the Republic and restore constitutional government. That is, electing the only federal officials that the Constitution ever intended for them to elect directly: members of the U.S. House of Representatives.
    By concentrating their time, money, thought, and physical energy in their own congressional districts, people could find, train, and elect real constitutionalists to send to the House. Within the limits of a congressional district, they could organize a campaign to bypass the media and all other forces that now exert controlling influence on statewide or nationwide election.
    A House of Representatives, controlled by constitutionalists and supported by the people, could restore constitutional government, even if the Senate, the President, and the Supreme Court fought it all the way. Restoring constitutional government would be slower if the House had to do it all, against the opporistion of the Senate and the other two branches of government; but it could be done. Only the House of Representatives can initiate revenue bills. The House, all by itself, could not shoot the [various unconstitutional programs and unconstitutional foreign wars]; but the House, all by itself, could starve [them] to death.
     The solution to restoring the Constitution is as simple as that. It will require time, effort, and sacrifice to accomplish it, true. But not as much as it cost our Founding Fathers to win the blessings of liberty for us in the first place."
