Mr. Obama, the question of your being a Natural Born Citizen is NOT going away. It is a focal point of our Constitution!

I'm the Director of Operations for the Institute on the Constitution. We must restore our republic. We can only do that by returning our nation first to God and then to the Constitution. Contact me if you or your group want to learn the Constitution!

There is a distinctively American view of law and of the role, purpose, and conduct of civil government. This American View rests firmly on Biblical foundations and requires, for its successful functioning, a moral and religious culture. That is to say, it requires a citizenry which is not only knowledgeable regarding the revealed Word of God and His moral principles and precepts, but also a citizenry which is committed to living liberty by observing His law.

American political philosophy is based on the belief that the world was created by God in six days and that this creation event occurred about six thousand years ago. So, the whole idea of evolution and an earth that is millions of years old is absolutely antithetical to America. When you see and hear folks describe the earth as millions of years old, you know that they are either willfully anti-American or they are ignorant of their own heritage and history.

What I am saying is that the promotion of evolution is an act of disloyalty to America

Theocracy is anti-american. As TAV promotes theocracy, it is promoting anti-Americanism. Any arguments based on theocracy (rule based on the notion of a deity) are inherently anti-American. The theocratic modifications instilled on the U.S. are against the ideals the nation was founded on, and relying any arguments upon them are inherently ridiculous.

Michael A. Peroutkareplied:

Thanks for your interest in The American View.

You say that Theocracy is anti-American, but I fail to see why. Perhaps we may need to define terms. You say that Theocracy is “rule based on the notion of deity”. Our country was founded precisely upon the belief in a deity, that is, God. The Declaration cites the Laws of Nature and Nature’s God. Please see my response to Mr. Denning as to what I believe this means. Our founders were claiming that the King and Parliament were NOT abiding by the higher moral laws and it was this Godless approach that gave them the authority to separate.

I can remember from my youth that when the term “communism” was used, it frequently was referred to as “Godless communism.” Conversely, the American Republic was specifically founded on the belief that a Creator God is the Author of our rights and liberties.

Blessings,
Michael A. Peroutka

A sample of the institute's views:

I host "1090 at Night" on WBAL 1090 AM.

I'm a decorated former state trooper who worked undercover on both state and federal task forces (including international drug smuggling cases and terrorism investigations); who then went on to earn his law degree, practice law, teach the U.S. Constitution at a local college, was elected to public office and currently serves as Director of Operations for the Institute on the Constitution. These are just highlights of the experiences I am ready to offer.

Licensed since 2008. Practices in Bel Air, mainly known for a family of famous American actors. Heard of John Wilkes Booth? Anti-gay, and testified in SC in support of our currency needing to be backed by gold or silver.

I have high hopes for him. He would fit right in at Dr Kates. Odd, we have the same alma mater yet we seem not to have learned the same stuff.

There are, of course, exceptions. For example, if you're looking for a criminal defense to a high-end misdemeanor or low-end felony charge in Maryland, you could do worse than hiring a solo practitioner who graduated from U. Baltimore night school. That's traditionally been a good career path for ex-cops and ex-military MPs. Some of them are real bulldogs in court, having learned a lot about the ropes -- and life -- outside of traditional legal education. (But still, this stereotype probably wouldn't be my first choice to write a brief in a matter of first impression that's floating up though the appellate process.)
