Could Abraham Lincoln Run and Win in 2012? | Godfather Politics

If Lincoln ran for president today would he win? Not if his views were scrutinized like other presidential candidates, unless of course, he was running as a Democrat.
People would be shocked to learn what Lincoln’s views were on “Negroes” and slavery. Consider this from the Fourth Debate with Stephen A. Douglas at Charleston, Illinois, September 18, 1858[1]


 “I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in anyway the social and political equality of the white and black races — that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality.”


“The point of this story is that the government – and especially our presidents – continually seek to control the news, lie to us in order to reach their objectives, and smother or even prevent dissent. During the Civil War, Lincoln shut down thousands of newspapers and charged thousands of editors and writers with treason. Many of Lincoln’s critics were executed, and many more were jailed, because of their exercise of free speech. Our leaders do not employ such drastic measures today, but they lie and instill fear in us to argue for the necessity of war. Unfortunately, we do not discover their true motives until it’s too late.
“Lincoln’s war killed over 650,000 Americans, more than have been killed in all wars in American history combined. He arrested newspaper editors, state legislators, and even a Republican congressman who merely spoke out against him. He suspended the writ of habeas corpus. His soldiers robbed American banks, burned American courthouses, raped American women, and killed American civilians – all with legal impunity.”

IndoctriNation

    Looking at both the origins and practical results of state-run education, Indoctrination takes you on a cross-country tour that's about the decline of American Christianity as well as the decline of schools. Featuring interviews with Christian teachers who couldn't teach Christianity to their students, notable homeschooling advocates Kevin Swanson, Samuel Blumenfeld, John Taylor Gatto, and homeschool celebrities Ken Ham, R.C. Sproul Jr. and Doug Phillips, filmmaker Colin Gunn accumulates conservative perspectives that will lead you straight to their conclusion: that Christians should never put their children into public schools.
    Focusing on the Marxist associations with the origins of schools, issues of sex education, physical safety from gunmen, whether Christians in schools can ever be "salt and light," whether public schools are politically neutral, and finally whether the public school system can be redeemed, Indoctrination dives into the heart of the Homeschool-Only debate with this part-documentary, part-testimonial DVD. 102 minutes on DVD.

Killing the Bill of Rights on Its Anniversary

Today marks the 220th anniversary
of the day the Bill of Rights were
officially added to the Constitution.

Ironically, the U.S. Senate is set to kill
the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 8th amendments
of that Bill of Rights later today.

Last night, the U.S. House approved
the Conference Report version of
the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA),
which includes provisions that would allow
the President to throw American citizens
in jail and keep them there indefinitely.

The Senate is set to vote on this bill
around 4 pm eastern today, so I need
your immediate help if we are to stop
this dangerous legislation.

Your senators' contact information here.

Please, call them right away and demand

they stand up for the Bill of Rights

on its 220th anniversary by voting "No"

on the NDAA Conference Report.

Ron Paul?


God will scatter the people who delight war. We must stand against UN wars, or our children will be drafted. ~Lance

"Fighting Breast Cancer with Flaxseeds"


"Women ate either a control muffin with no flax seeds imbedded or 25g flax-containing muffin starting at time of diagnosis of breast cancer for just 32-39 days until surgery. Tumor tissue analyzed at diagnosis and surgery demonstrated surprising benefits even in this short time frame."

Immediate Action Required: Stop Indefinite Detention of U.S. Citizens Without Due Process

Immediate action required!

"Deep inside the National Defense Authorization Act (S. 1867) that the Senate is currently considering is a dangerous and unconstitutional portion that needs to be stripped out. Congress would grant the President the power to use the military in order to detain certain individuals, including American citizens, without trial or due process, indefinitely.

Section 1031 of the National Defense Authorization Act reads: “Congress affirms that the authority of the President to use all necessary and appropriate force … includes the authority for the Armed Forces of the United States to detain covered persons…. [including] [d]etention under the law of war without trial....” This “indefinite detention” section hands over to the Executive Branch the power to have the military arrest U.S. citizens. No trial needed. Simple suspicion would suffice.

This could be quite reminiscent of Stalinist Russia where a knock on the door in the middle of the night meant that the person taken by the military was often never seen again, perhaps having been imprisoned in Siberia or executed. The Japanese American Citizens League has warned that this measure’s detention principles are similar to the ones that sent innocent Japanese-Americans into concentration camps during WW II..."


Please take a quick moment to contact your representative regarding this legislation.

Now therefore, I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next, to be devoted by the people of these states to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the Beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country, and for all the great and various favors which He has been pleased to confer upon us.
-- George Washington, 1789

I am committed to my health and I am taking 
Dr. Fuhrman's Holiday Challenge!

This year, as I celebrate the holidays and enjoy

 the company of my family and friends, 
I will make food choices that support my health.

For the next 6 weeks, I promise to…

• Eat generous amounts of cooked green vegetables

, mushrooms, and onions
• Eat beans every day
• Eat at least three fresh fruits every day
• Avoid white flour
• Avoid sugars and artificial sweeteners

I will not allow peer pressure or tempting toxic foods

health goals.

I will not compromise my health to please others.

I will set an example of health-mindedness 

for those around me.

It's (Not That) Complicated


Excerpt from It’s (Not That) Complicated

How do young men and young women interact with one another when marriage is not in view? Can young men and young women be ‘friends’? And how does a young woman guard her heart, preserve her purity, and walk in integrity without treating young men with disdain? In It’s (Not That) Complicated, Anna Sofia and Elizabeth Botkin address these and other questions with wisdom, grace, transparency, and biblical acuity.
— Dr. Voddie Baucham Jr.
