How to Win a Real Revolution

Most conservatives grasp that our nation desperately needs a real revolution – not a violent or unconstitutional revolution, but a real revolution nonetheless. At the outset, it is vital to understand that no revolution will ever come out of Washington. Indeed, "Capitolism" is the heart of all our political problems.

Likewise, states near Washington have a powerful vested interest in a bloated, pampered, and unrestrained federal government. So do all the media. Even nominally conservative media who suck on the federal teat have an equally vested interest in Washington remaining the only real source of power in America. Lawyers and judges, especially those whose domain is Washington, are also addicted to "Capitolism."

All revolutions begin in the colonies, the flyover lands where real work is done, the exploited territories whose voice is never heard – or, if heard, is smirked at and mocked, in the pampered salons of the brainless, soulless functionaries whose only function is to preserve the privileges and prerogatives of those nabobs in the nexus of power.

There is a natural and constitutional source of power to fight this sort of revolution: state legislatures. Despite such awful changes in the Constitution as the direct election of senators and in spite of the cravenness of many state legislatures before the political bribery of Washington and bullying of federal judges, state legislatures still have, with sufficient numbers, omnipotence in our constitutional system.
