when a candidate's permission is needed to ask a question-free speech isn't legal.when a person is seeking the presidency,there is about a 98% chance that he or she is not planning to defend the rights of the citizens.these people are technically our employees.how many servants earn more than their employers?when the overall path of a nation never loses a destination-the citizens have been lied to.sure,when the opposite regains control they will go as far as"throwing the dog a little bone",like cutting funding to the programs of their predecessor.these actions suggest they have different goals,but they never repeal legislation that violates our constitution.the two parties,we refuse to abandon,have the same goals.the bickering is staged to misdirect our attention.few research history deep enough to determine both parties never stopped supporting slavery.freedom of the press was compromised long ago.their managers and program directors,are all"retired"from employers such as the central intelligence agency.ever notice a degree is needed to be a reporter?to be a reporter you have to be force-fed the rewriting of history."civics"had to be removed from the basic education of public schools.this explored the rationale of our constitution,and was why some students knew when they heard a lie.law schools,don't even teach that the jury has the highest rank,in any court.judges give unconstitutional"instructions" to jurors.explaining that the"facts"of a case outweigh fairness.the first supreme court chief justice was john jay,and he said:"the jury has the right to judge both the law as well as the fact in controversy".a man named samuel chase,also a supreme court justice and a signer of the declaration of independence,said:"the jury has the right to determine both the law and the facts."if these same people were around today,our nation would either be corrected or they would have died trying to correct it.
