When I was younger, I called myself “John Galt”. I was inspired by the maverick from Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged, and I sought to change the world, to spit in the face of my perceived oppressors. I’m writing now to apologize for my words. I once saw a world burning to ashes, drowning in the moral […]
It is irrefutable to anyone who has studied American history that the hand of Deity has intervened on more than one occasion to save this great nation. The help of Providence is based upon the virtue and morality of the people. In order to regain God’s favor, we must return to the moral principles that […]
To start off, I apologize for my recent silence. I have been distracted by the activity leading up to the election. Now, after a second Obama victory, we must now live with the decision that America has made. To help us get a feeling for the short-term consequences of the election, let’s look at some […]
John Galt here. If anyone has had trouble contacting me, I apologize. My e-mail at notyourparentspolitics.com has not been working. In the future, send all messages for me to 7johngalt7@gmail.com. Thank you.
For any who missed a debate or want to watch them again, go to www.youtube.com/politics.

When the moderator asked both candidates ” I want to move on, and I want to return home for these last few questions. […]
Allow me to introduce you to Dennis Prager. Mr. Prager is an American conservative talk-show host who has stated the facts about modern America that most have tried, consciously or unconsciously, tried to avoid. Although he is not an educator, he seems to understand education better than anyone else I know of. He wrote a […]
This post serves a dual purpose. First, I will include links at the bottom to recordings of the highlight addresses from the Republican National Convention in Tampa this week. Second, this page will serve as a type of forum for comments on the topics and issues discussed. After watching the live stream, I must say […]
I’ve heard many people refer to America as a “great democracy” or express gratitude for our “democratic” form of government, but the Pledge of Allegiance refers to America as a Republic. So which one is it? And what’s the difference? The U.S. Army’s Training Manual No. 2000-25 (published 1928) defines both as follows: Democracy: 1. […]
John Galt here. I would just like to tell anyone out there who is even remotely interested in politics to read The Five Thousand Year Leap. This book explains what principles the Founders based the Constitution on, how those principles benefit the nation, and what you can do to restore America to its former glory. […]
