  • Publishers Two Bits

    Dec 9, 2020

    Are we one nation anymore? For me, the answer is simple: NO!!! Do I believe that Michigan, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Nevada, Arizona are playing by the same rules as Montana? Of course not! Will I accept that the cheating, lying, stealing that has taken place in those states speak for me, or will I listen to what they say? Of course not!

    Harold Pease PhD|Dec 9, 2020

    Most do not realize that there exists no language in the Constitution authorizing a popular vote for the executive branch of government. Why? Because we are a republic—not a democracy. The latter supports tranny by the majority, the former does not. Explaining this may require another column. The election of the president was entirely left to the state legislatures not the masses. Article II, Sec. 2 of the Constitution reads, “Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the who...
