Essay: A Guide to Measuring Political Actions Based On Our Constitution
A Guide to Measuring Political Actions Based On Our Constitution
By Nancy Thorner
A friend of Nancy Thorner's, Steve Maikoski, author of The Real Constitution and its real enemies, shared with Thorner via e-mail an article he had written: What the "Experts” are Missing. Nancy Thorner has contributed articles in the past to Conservapedia.
Steve Maikoski gained his interest in political science as he worked for several political influence groups, leading to his curiosity about our Constitution and its history. All his studies have been personal. As a photographer, Steve provided services for many teams at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, mainly USA Basketball, and was awarded Star Crest Solo #11299. Steve now lives in Lake Havasu City, Arizona.
In reviewing Maikoski's article, Thorner was impressed by what was conveyed therein and immediately determined What the “Experts” are Missing was an important article essential to understanding the Democrat Party's tactics of anti-constitutionalism so apparent today.
Thorner was therefore pleased when Mr. Maikoski gave permission to share his article.
Steve Maikoski begins his article, What the“Experts” are Missing, by offering the following mistakes conservative writers make.
Conservative writers commonly identify what our government should be doing and then offer opinions on how to change its course for the better. But they offer invalid remedies because they do not identify how the masters of political change continue to move government away from its original design, so the writers do not deal with the actual problem.
Thereafter Mr. Maikoski presents two essential elements to the Democrat Party’s tactics of anti-constitutionalism:
1. The framing of our political discourse that puts the Constitution on the right wing.
2. The Democrat party's ongoing war on morality.
Maikoski further states: We will not stop the decay of our constitutional republic unless we stop and correct both processes. The sooner the better, because they are active in some very important areas, especially where they continue seducing the young minds in schools at all levels.
Maikoski goes on to clarify that what follows in his commentary will cover the first essential element of the Democrat Party, their tactical framing of political discourse, while the morality element will be covered in his next article.
Starting the discussion
To start the discussion, Maikoski poses the following question: How did the Constitution end up on the right wing of the political spectrum? The Constitution is the foundation of all law in the United States; therefore, it should properly be the foundation of all political measurements.
Continuinng, Maikoski references a section in his book cited above, The Real Constitution and it's real enemies, that relates to the right wing – left wing dialogue of the Democrats. Through using their left/right debate system, Democrats have undermined every element of our Constitutional form of government.
One of the six points referenced follows
By resetting the center, the Democrats have enabled vindictive portrayals of Constitutionists, calling them extremists and making up weird names, such as alt-right wingers, neo-cons, etc., and it enables them to freely associate any political movement they want, even fascism (which the democrats are working into our system) with conservative thought. Consider the fact that they now portray those who believe in the proper exercise of law as “extreme right-wingers” instead of law-abiding citizens—and you will understand the importance of returning our national dialogue to a constitutional center.
Maikoski's system for measuring political actions
Years ago Steve Maikoski started a system of measuring political actions, one based on our Constitution, not the whims of a rebel party.
Calling it the "Constitutional Initial Point", Maikoski uses Plato's law of non-contradiction. As Mr. Maikoski describes his system: Either you are a constitutionist or you are not, so any political act outside of our constitutional design is potted to the left or the Initial Point. There is no right or left wing. This way, the entire system of political measurements is simplified; it eliminates the finesse work used by the anti-constitutionist democrats.
As Maikoski further relates: We need this defined process. If you observe today's society, with the cars, aircraft, computers, machinery and modern conveniences, all are the product of a defined, logical process of measurement: the results of this sloppiness show in our arguments, differences, disrespect for law and our national debt.
On a sober note, Steve Maikoski ends What the “Experts” are Missing with this thought: The first step to genuine progress in our nation is to start using the Constitutional Initial Point. I pray this happens before it is too late.
