Constitutional crisis, the first time I heard that phrase was during the Bush Administration; Bill Moyers used it to describe the actions undertaken by Bush's cabinet to spy on United States citizens. I would later learn Moyers had used the phrase to describe Reagan's Iran Contra Scandal; in both instances the use was beyond apt, it was correct. Why? Between the Constitution and the Citizen is a Vatican level of decrees known as Laws and legislation. Between the three points themselves, the constitution, the Citizen and those Laws and Legislation, is what the Romans called The Unwritten or Invisible Constitution; every country in the Republicanist Nation-State Government Era has one; but few try to sus it out. I began today's episode by doing just that, alluding to what is likely in the United States Unwritten Constitution. I do this in the context of speaking to the Constitutional Crisis this country is facing; namely the choice between being a Republicanist style government and society or being a Democracist style government and society. To be fair, this country has been fighting amongst itself trying to figure out which of the two it really wanted to be. One of the most influential books on the decision to make this a Republic in the Roman style was the 1776 Published Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Republic. Had that not been there the country could have attempted to fix the Confederacy formula it stole from the Iroquois which was Democracic in nature. We now enter into a period of time where if we don't choose the right path (Democracy) we may throw our entire country into chaos, that chaos will definitely spill over into violence, causing deterioration throughout the sociopolitical landscape – placing the “united” in United States, in jeopardy. Hope you enjoy this thought provoking episode.
