In Federalist Number 46, James Madison insists that Americans would never be crazy enough to fund a federal government that was destroying rather than protecting their property.
Madison promised his readers that his countrymen would never watch while the storm clouds of tyranny gathered and grew darker, much less stand by while a deluge of despotism drowned themselves and their posterity.
Sorry, Mr.
Madison, but we are just that lazy and just that crazy Just in case his worst-case scenario should come to pass, though, Mr.
Madison left us with an inventory of powerful weapons that he said states would have at hand.
What Degree of Madness? chronicles how we got in our current condition and how we can still deploy the weapons Madison catalogued to Make America STATES Again And, if we are diligent, we will finally force the federal beast back inside its constitutional cage __________Joe Wolverton's latest book provides a message America needs.
America needs a course correction.
Instead of following the success formula set forth in our founding documents, The Declaration of Independence and The Constitution, we have been traveling a suboptimal path.
Restoration of the proper relationship between the states and the federal government will restore the greatest freedom to our country.
We will no longer have a national government but will bring us back to a federal government which will bring lasting freedom and prosperity.
Joe's scholarship and writing on this important topic is vital to our nation's future.

) State nullification has always been part of the American political tradition, but since the Civil War a largely suppressed part.
Today, however, state nullification (and even secession) are again topical-though not well understood.
This book-well suited for a general audience-is a thorough study of the importance of state nullification today as a lawful instrument for resisting federal tyranny.
