Introduction to the Constitution (Updated Video Link)

Hillsdale College LogoAs a followup to Skip’s post on the Hillsdale College Constitution 101 class, I wanted to make you aware of some excellent video-lectures called an “Introduction to the Constitution,”  that you may want to watch before you proceed to ‘Constitution 101.’   You’ll have access to these if you register for the free Constitution 101 course, (a well as PDF’s of all the related founding documents, and study guides)  but I wanted to post them over the next few days to give you a taste of what you can look forward to in Constitution 101.

GrokTV Event-NH Senate hearing: Voter ID / SB318 – Skip Murphy

OK, I’m touting my own horn here.  Sure, I am in favor of a Voter ID bill that requires a picture ID.  Given the two bills, I think I would favor SB289 over SB318.  Yes, the latter tries to cover more areas but I think that SB289 is more tightly focused on the major issue … Read more
