Constitution 2000 A Federalist Proposal for the Next Generation

This book makes the case for a return to Federalist principles. In 1776, our forefathers rebelled against BIG government. They threw off the yoke of British monarchy. Then in 1787, our forefathers rebelled against WEAK government. They put an end to the embarrassment known as the ARTICLES OF CONFEDERATION & replaced it with a Constitution that for the first time established a truly national government. Americans today often confuse the two revolutions. We have a Congress that is the size of a small city, a Presidency that has been emasculated, a federal court system that is about to drown in a torrent of trivia, a central bank that is privately owned yet governs economic policy making, & a Supreme Court that equates free speech with big-time spending. This book proposes to cut Congress in half, to restore the Presidency, to provide ready access to justice in our federal courts, to fence in the Federal Reserve System, & to make free speech truly free. It proposes a constitutional convention & eleven amendments designed to bring those reforms about. It concludes with an open letter to George Washington. Complete ordering information will be announced in October.Wade, Edwin L. is the author of 'Constitution 2000 A Federalist Proposal for the Next Generation' with ISBN 9780964737259 and ISBN 0964737256.
