We are at the "tipping edge" having already arrived at a state of "democracy" very close to mob rule as directed by a dictator! The Constitution has been trashed by our "elected" officials for quite some time whether Democrat or Republican.The only way back from the abyss is to reinstall the Constitution as the controlling document for the federal government. It must be absolute. Nothing in between will suffice or achieve a reconstruction of the foundation necessary.P.S. While you refer to Bill Bennet as a valuableand prominent reader of the Patriot, I must point out that had he followed Reagan's orders, we might not have the problems we face today. Reagan had promised to eliminate the Department of Education. He gave the job to Bennet who didn't follow through. His excuse, which he wrote me many years ago when I callenged him on it, were pure sophistry without substance. Sorry, but I don't have much use for Mr. Bennet
