To: John Armor,
Constitutional Attorney
From: Lee Ellis
John, thank God for you! What you have started is the most necessary need for most American citizens right now! With the lowering of educational standards resulting in a naive public, ignorant of our past history and civics, we are about to lose our great Republic!
How clever of you to refer to the Constitution as our "Owner's Manual." It certainly is and we all must refresh our minds regularly as to what is in it. Thanks to Marv Essary for publishing this!
Thankfully, you have written ten articles. After the ten are published on ChronWatch, I feel strongly that you MUST publish these as a pamphlet or a small hard-cover booklet that people can carry in their pocket to use daily. Sell them on the Internet either through ChronWatch or your own web site. Get a minimum price just to cover the cost of distribution and printing as the goal must be to get these in as many hands as possible. I will buy some to pass along at meetings and lunches that I attend and help you get out the word. Yes, we could have the actual Constitution in an inside pocket, but your method of making it simple to comprehend is essential in today's age, especially with over 45 million NEW voters under the age of 45!
I hope your tenth article will have a great closer on it to warn people what will happen to this beloved country if we do not learn what is in our owner's manual, that dark forces are trying to wrest this country away from its owners (us) in order to use its control for their own purposes. When this happens, we will have lost our freedom, our right to the pursuit of happiness, and the very reason why so many people wish to escape their own country to come to ours. This country is the last bastion of freedom; once it is lost, there is no other nation to which people may emigrate for freedom.
If we do not make our elected officials stick to our owner's manual, then we do, indeed, reap what we sow!
God bless you and keep up your great work. I have been looking for a new Paul Revere to sound the alarm. Perhaps you are not only a Revere, but also a Jefferson and Adams combined into one!. 1776 is revived. Do we have a George Washington to lead the troops?
