Our Principles and Policies radio show for Saturday April 21, 2012. Chuck Michaelis plays an audio of a class from Camp American in June of 2009 that is still quite relevant today. Tom DeWeese of the American Policy Center discusses two views of rights; they are either God-given and inalienable or given by government and subject to the will of the majority in power. This is the crux of the attempts to call a new constitutional convention.

Our Principles and Policies radio show for Tuesday March 27, 2012. Barry Sheets and Chuck Michaelis continue a critical review of an opinion article written in the Columbus Dispatch by Dr. Steve Rissing, Professor of Biology at the Ohio State University.
