controlled by voters. Voters are controlled by public opinion. Public opinion is controlled by MEDIA (News,
Hollywood, Internet...) & EDUCATION

So whoever controls MEDIA & EDUCATION,
controls the COUNTRY.

That's why our founders said "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."

"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion.

Fisher Ames warned against the deep-state temptation of those in power to rig the system to stay in power, in "Speeches on Mr. Madison's Resolutions"

He also warned about the tyranny of a democracy (as we have a republic).

"A democracy is a volcano which conceals the fiery materials of its own destruction."
