The 3 Branches, the 4th Pillar, and the 5th Estate
Our system of checks and balances is broken, this is apparent to most clear thinking Americans.
Our system of checks and balances is broken, this is apparent to most clear thinking Americans. The so-called fourth pillar of democracy, the media, presumably exists to provide proper checks and balances on the three branches of government; that are supposed to provide checks and balances on each other's power to prevent development of a monarchy, oligarchy, or ruling class over the free inhabitants of a free America. The fourth pillar of democracy, the media, has slowly over the decades been vetted by knowledgeable people and is, I believe, in the latter stages of being exposed for the fraudulent controlled public relations wing of government, government special interest, and other NGOs that they are, thankfully.
"The Fourth Pillar has become The Fifth Estate." This is a quote by radio personality Michael Savage, host of the Savage Nation. Or at least that's where I first heard the term 12 or 15 years ago. What is the fifth estate? To put it in its simplest terms: The Fifth Estate, for the purposes of this article, is a descriptive term for alternative media. The current landscape of alternative media sources, while existing with varying degrees of credibility, are so numerous that the REAL truth tellers have now congregated themselves into a loose faction serving as a check and balance on the fourth pillar of democracy which has become corrupt or perhaps was corrupt from the start.
It seems as if the only checks and balances these three branches of government, media, and of course certain other nefarious characters provide are the checks they write to each other and themselves, with TAXPAYER MONEY, and the only precarious balancing they do is to their noticeably bloated bank accounts that ooze with ill gotten gains or themselves on dash or body cam arrest footage.
So what do we do? Throw the baby out with the bathwater? Anarchy in the streets? Chunga-Bunga cowabunga Hootie-Hoo and Boogaloo? No friends, a Steady Course we must keep, although the rough and corrupt waters run Deep. We have the answers laid out before us in our founding documents. We also have the guidance of the history that hasn't been lost to us of how to regain the freedoms that some of us remember.
That's important for us to remember, "Freedom as we knew it," Freedom as we knew it WAS the contrived system of control and FALSE freedom that they tried to create in whatever utopic dream to control us. We aspire to have freedom that is not chained by the bounds and constrictions of the political and elite established malignant control mechanisms of the 20th century.
Freedom as you perhaps knew it when you were a child. Freedom as you perhaps knew it when you were able to escape into the real world on your own. Freedom as you knew it before you realized you were being oppressed. Their own system of imprisonment will be the key to us unlocking the doors of humanities true freedom. The Declaration of Independence, the United States Constitution, the Bill of Rights included.
America Mission is the NEW check. America Mission is the NEW balance to bring the level back into the favor of the free sentient individual in America. The vetting of our candidates, the integrity of our elections and the accountability and transparency of both are Paramount. The origin of the concept of no taxation without representation is generally recognized in the historical community to have been first proposed in a letter Benjamin Franklin wrote In 1754. Cut from 1754 to 1776 and we realize how quickly and how fervently a group of people can be galvanized against tyranny and oppression due to a lack of representation in their own government. Thankfully we at American Mission do not have to draft, charter, or inact any such measures as we already have them laid out before us in our founding documents. America Mission will seek out and support freedom loving, founding document learned candidates. We are looking for and we will find proper candidates that will provide proper representation to the people.
Who will it be?
"Closed Party Primaries" are essential, if the goal is electing principled conservatives.
These virtuous candidates should be vetted through "party primary elections" open to pre-registered party affiliation.
Any open primary election will advance RINOs, IMHO.
RCV voting is worse than a magic eight ball.
Alaska and other states should abandon all of their contrived circumvention of voter intent, IMHO.
