Audio Archives Updated: Nullification/Tea Party Exposed
Audio Archives Update – July 25th Show: http://jeffchidester.com/archives.html
1st Segment: Nullification: How to Resist Federal Tyranny in the 21st Century
What is to be done if the government violates the Constitution? What options are available to the people?
Many believe that nullification is the answer. But what is nullification, and why is it an important tool against tyranny? Many are familiar with the term nullification as applied by juries in criminal cases. But nullification’s roots run deep throughout the soul of our country.
Some would try to describe nullification as nothing more than a theory that has no application in today’s America, while a handful know that our Founding Fathers intended an adversarial relationship, not only between the three branches of the federal government, but between the federal government and the states. It was this spirited relationship that our Founding Fathers knew would do more to protect our individual liberty.
Best-selling author Thomas Woods Jr., author of The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History and Meltdown, presents an outstanding historical understanding of nullification, and justifies its existence as a matter of constitutional reality that cannot be intellectually dismissed by uninformed progressives.

Liberty’s March Has A New Generation Of Patriots’
What do you know about pro-liberty groups such as the Tea Party, 9-12, and others? Some in the media have been trying to paint a picture of people who are nothing more than anti-government, racist –thugs, and unintelligent malcontents. Is that a true picture of the movement, or has the Forth Estate shown its own biases in their reporting of the liberty movement?

New Hampshire's Educational Polices: Our Priorities Are All Wrong
New Hampshire’s Educational Polices: Our Priorities Are All Wrong
Ann Marie Banfield
The following is a guest posting from educational expert, and frequent NHP guest, Ann-Marie Banfield.
The New Hampshire Department of Education under Governor Lynch recently announced that the New Hampshire Board of Education voted to adopt the Common Core Standards in math and English. As the United States moves towards a more centralized education system, in this article PRI • Pacific Research Institute • What Canada can teach the U.S. about education the authors explain why Canadian students are outperforming the U.S. students: a decentralized education system.
While U.S. students continue to struggle when compared to their international peers, our neighbors to the north figured out the keys to success. According to the article, ” While the United States has seen decades of increasing federal intervention and control of education policy, the federal government in Canada has essentially no role in K-12 education.”
Under the Obama Administration, the U.S. Department of Education has begun the process of nationalizing education. Recently they released the “Common or National standards” in English and math. In order to qualify for federal funding (Race to the Top funds) states are passing legislation and adopting National standards. In other words, the schools and state departments of education are answering to the Federal Government instead of the parents and the local communities.
The Canadian system of education shows that decentralizing government in the role of education allows their schools to compete and succeed. Not only are they succeeding, they are spending less money per student when compared to the U.S.
While some Governors have rejected the Federal Government’s infringement on education in their state, Governor Lynch’s Department of Education embraces it. Canada shows the U.S. how to improve the quality of education; however New Hampshire has opted to move in the opposite direction.
The National Standards New Hampshire recently adopted are an improvement over what the New Hampshire Department of Education set for students. However, what prevented the Department of Education under Governor Lynch to improve the state standards we had in place? Other State Departments of Education worked and provided their students quality academic standards. Why did the Department of Education under Governor Lynch fail to make this a priority? These are the questions I think are questions to consider as we move toward the November elections.
Instead of working to improve the quality of our own standards, we’ve shifted power to the National level further eroding local control. New Hampshire could have offered students quality academic standards and maintained what little local control is left. Unfortunately that was not a priority for the Lynch administration and we will now have to relinquish more power to the Federal Government when it comes to decisions our local community should be making.
