Maybe Republican fear-mongering on judges would have some salience if the Republicans had shown any propensity at all to pick judges who had any decent notion of what the Constitution says and means, and what their oaths require. After all, Republican-picked judges have controlled the Supreme Court for a whole generation now. Look at what the courts have done in the last half-century, and remember who is responsible for most of it. And that includes Roe vs. Wade, which was decided by a heavily GOP-appointed court. And this idea that we're only "one judge away from losing our rights" is toxic. To what ever degree there is any truth to it it is solely because virtually the entire Republican Party has surrendered constitutional republican self-government in favor of the setting up of a judicial oligarchy. They show absolutely no interest in providing any necessary check or balance on the courts, as their oaths of office require. The courts were supposed to be the weakest branch, with no "force or will," as Hamilton put it in the Federalist. They can do absolutely NOTHING that the executive branch, and the legislative branch, and the people, don't allow. NOTHING. What's it going to take to wake up the people to the fact that the courts have absolutely no legitimate power to violate the laws of nature and nature's God or the Constitution of the United States?

The Democrat/Republican Uniparty cartel has utterly rigged your elections against you, especially at the federal - and particularly the presidential - level. Believe me. We have spent many years now trying to un-rig it on your behalf. We know the practical facts of the matter intimately. But today I'm going to tell you exactly how you can - like Alexander solving the riddle presented by the Gordian Knot - restore government of the people, by the people, and for the people, and overthrow the corrupt money, media, and political party-based lock on power, in one swift stroke. All you have to do to undo the rigged process is to write my name in for president on your ballot. That's it. By that one act you will have completely undone the multitude of burdensome statutes and arbitrary, ridiculous rules that keep the citizens of this country from real access to their own elections. T-O-M H-O-E-F-L-I-N-G It's really not that hard to write, or to spell. Do this, and we CAN win. And then the real work of restoring this constitutional republic, for the sake of our children and grandchildren, can begin in earnest.

I am a moderate counter-revolutionary. It is my opponents who are all radicals and revolutionaries. They all forward public policies that assure the continuation of the radically immoral, radically unconstitutional practice of human abortion. They all forward radical public policies that assure the continued destruction of the essential civil institution of marriage and the natural family. They all forward radical public policies that accept the coup d'etat against constitutional, republican self-government represented by the destructive fallacy of judicial supremacy. They all forward radical public policies that ignore the Enumerated Powers and continue the unconstitutional socialist programs that are swiftly bankrupting our nation. I repeat: It's radical to slaughter babies. It's radical to destroy, or accept the destruction of, the concept of God-given, unalienable, intrinsic, equal, individual rights. It's radical to destroy, or to accept, the destruction of, the God-created, God-defined institution of marriage and the natural family. It's radical to continue to support, or to supinely accept, a revolutionary system that amounts to judicial oligarchy. It's radical to support the continued revolutionary overturning of limited constitutional government and the furtherance of unlimited socialistic government. Simple fact: I'm the only candidate available to vote for in the November 8th presidential contest with the vision, and the commitment, and the actual constitutional, practical plan, to restore equal protection to the innocents, and thereby to restore actual governmental respect for the original cornerstone principles of the Declaration of Independence, our national charter. I'm the only candidate available to vote for in the November 8th presidential contest with the vision, and the commitment, and the actual constitutional, practical plan, to restore civil protections to the essential institution of one man-one woman marriage and the natural family. I'm the only candidate available to vote for in the November 8th presidential contest with the vision, and the commitment, and the actual constitutional, practical plan, to put judges back into their constitutional box where they belong. I'm the only candidate available to vote for in the November 8th presidential contest with the vision, and the commitment, and the actual constitutional, practical plan, to restore limited, constitutional government, and to shut down every part of this government that is outside of its legitimate constitutional power and authority, before our nation becomes insolvent, and we all are forced to experience an economic nightmare beyond our worst imaginations. The American Revolution was a revolution to civilly-protect God-given individual rights, to establish justice, to limit the powers of the various branches of government, to establish checks and balances against those who would attempt to usurp or abuse power, to secure the Blessings of Liberty to our Posterity, to establish and maintain a system of limited, constitutional government. Stop supporting those who are in revolt against all of the above. Nothing will change until you do so. America cannot be saved unless you do so. Tom Hoefling
Our national wealth, our national security, and our national greatness are all entirely dependent on the grace and the blessing of Almighty God. Donald J. Trump, just the other day, closed a speech in Florida with the exclamation that he is going to make America rich again, that he is going to make America secure again, and that he is going to make America great again. Three things that he cannot assure, especially in light of the fact that we continue to lawlessly slaughter thousands of innocents in this country each and every day, under the color of "law," and that Trump has emphatically declared that he will do absolutely nothing to change that. He says the current situation is "the law," in spite of the fact that the supreme law of our land, the Constitution, explicitly and imperatively DEMANDS equal protection for the right to life of EVERY PERSON. Of course, Trump knows absolutely nothing about the Constitution or the law. He thinks judges "sign bills." Every single individual, and our own small deeds - for good or ill - truly matter, because it is upon the sum of small things that nations rise, or thrive, or die. Tom Hoefling
God rules and reigns over all. That knowledge makes all the turmoil we see around us seem rather trivial by comparison. My reading of history is that when a people descends to the state of moral corruption in which they are willing to support what they openly admit is evil, based on the abject fear of some supposedly "greater" evil, God tends to give that people over to the power of their feared "greater" evil, and to the power of their assumed "lesser" evil as well. The 1932 German election is the classic example. It was considered to be a "lesser of three evils" election between the corrupt, weak, aged Field Marshall Hindenburg, Hitler, and a communist. They chose the "lesser evil," Hindenburg. Within a month the weakling Hindenburg had handed power over the Hitler and the Nazi Party. They ruled the country with an iron fist for more than a decade, until millions were dead, and the nation, along with most of Europe, was laid waste. Then a large portion of the country was given over to the communists for a generation. This is what happens when a people abandons God, and moral principle, and fails to raise up and empower decent principled leaders. Tyranny can only rise when there is a moral vacuum of true leadership in politics. Tom Hoefling
Exchanges with Trump supporters quickly bring a number of things into high relief. Some of those things are: Their loss of any reference to principle. Their moral compass has somehow lost its ability to find True North. Their notable loss of any ability to discern the moral difference between pragmatic/utilitarian choices based on perceived political expedience and choices based on principle. Their open scorn for any mention of the demands of conscience. Their open scorn, and even vitriolic hatred, for anyone who acts on conscience rather than on perceived political expedience. Unsurprising, since the Trump GOP booed conscience at their convention in Cleveland. The Democrats boo God. The Republicans boo conscience. These are the moral depths to which these "two" ruling parties have descended. And folks wonder why the country is in a mess? Tom Hoefling
What does it profit you to "stop Hillary" only to elect one of her most crass, unprincipled, liberal friends and financial backers? The problem with pragmatism is not that it is wrong to give consideration to the likely practical results of a given action. The problem with pragmatism is that it is humanistic, and therefore short-sighted to the point of blindness, leaving out God and His infinite knowledge, understanding, and perspective, and truth, and principle, and morality, and our eternal standing before Him, from the calculations. In the end, pragmatism will be proved to be eternally impractical. It's a first principle of nature: We reap what we sow, even if the crop doesn't come in overnight. "For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?" -- Mark 8:36 Tom Hoefling
At this point in our history, all the Democratic Party has to offer is wickedness. And all the Republican Party has to offer is fear and moral compromise with that wickedness. But the God we serve did not give us a spirit of fear. He gave us "a spirit of love, and of power, and of a sound mind." Fear is the opposite of love. "Perfect love casts out fear," as the scripture says. He didn't tell us to overcome evil with our own brand of evil. He told us quite clearly to "overcome evil with good." Church, why don't you understand why you stand so powerless in the political arena today? As long as you continue to be motivated and moved by fear instead of by faith, that sad, completely unnecessary, losing situation will continue. Get a grip! The worsening craziness you see all around you has to stop, and it has to stop first with you! Turn back to God! Turn back to the truth! Turn back to principle! Stop compromising! This is our only temporal hope to remain a free people! The fate of our earthly posterity depends on this! Tom Hoefling
If you say you're a conservative, but you support liberals, you are, for all practical purposes, a liberal. You are, in other words, part of the problem. I simply don't believe those who tell me they’re conservatives while they’re busy supporting liberals. Talk is cheap, and so are political labels. But actions speak louder than words. If the actions don’t line up with the words, I’m going to believe the actions every single time. The fact is, Trump Republicans are for all practical purposes liberals, no matter what they say. Tom Hoefling
One of the things I like the most about the most commonly-sung verse of our national anthem, the first verse, is that it ends with a very important question, one that should perpetually provoke us to thought, prayer, and decisive action. "Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?" The fact remains that it can continue to fly over a people that are no longer free, because they have become cowards. Tom Hoefling
Virtually all of the arguments being made for Donald J. Trump are godless Utilitarian arguments, not biblically-sound Christian arguments. Christians should know the difference. Sadly, it is primarily folks who call themselves Christians who are making these godless, faithless, fear-filled arguments. We're never going to save the country until Christians once again fear God more than they fear Democrats. Tom Hoefling
I'm not a very emotional guy, usually. But September 10th and 11th are very emotional for me. Those were the birthdays of my sister and mother, both of whom have gone on to be with the Lord, one by way of senseless violence of the worst possible kind, and the other via one of the most painful forms of cancer possible. Add the commemoration of the horrible 9-11 attacks, and I get more than a bit choked up this time of year. Thank God for the certain knowledge that He is the Sovereign over all things, and that someday He will finally and completely crush all evil, and destroy death itself, and wipe every tear from our eyes. Tom Hoefling
Abortion is not legal. It's not possible that it could be when abortion violates the laws of nature and nature's God, the natural law that God established, the moral principles of our national charter, the Declaration of Independence, all of the clauses of the stated purposes of our Constitution, as well as that Constitution's explicit, equal protection and due process requirements. When you cede legality to those who support this holocaust, they pretty much already have you beat. Tom Hoefling
I have some bad news for our supporters across America today. Republican elections officials in two separate states, Florida and Arkansas, have now officially kicked us off the November 8th general election ballot. In Florida nothing of any substance at all has changed from the two previous elections in which our America’s Party nominee has appeared on the ballot there on the America’s Party of Florida ballot line. The only thing that has in fact changed is the personnel in the General Counsel’s office for the Secretary of State. In other words, one new lawyer reinterpreting what the Florida Code requires, and the exact same Secretary of State who put us on the ballot four years ago under the exact same conditions, going along with that lawyer’s brand-new [mis]interpretation of the law. In Arkansas, officials in the Secretary of State’s office misdirected our grassroots volunteers in terms of what information is required to be contained on the petition forms. Their office even supplied the official form for petitioning, which apparently doesn’t contain all of the information required by the Arkansas Code. Their office confirmed that we were using the proper forms before petitioning ever commenced. We have full records, including a video record, of them doing this. I will be writing at great length in the days ahead about the many ways in which the Republican and Democrat parties have disenfranchised We the People with their burdensome ballot access requirements. But, in the short run, it seems that our only recourse in the two affected states is legal recourse. Not an easy thing to pursue for a completely grassroots, volunteer, citizen-led organization. A word of encouragement: No matter what happens in these two cases in these two states, the work goes forward to make sure that the citizens of most of the states will still be able to vote for our principled conservative ticket, even if it is by writing in my name in most instances. We will be still be qualified in far more than enough states to win the election, numerically-speaking. Tom Hoefling
Let me let you in on a little secret. Almost none of those who are known as "political leaders" in this country today are truly leaders. They are completely in thrall to what their donors think, or what their fundraisers think, or what their hired political guns think, or what the media thinks, or what some pollster has convinced them the public thinks. True leaders consistently stand up and tell you the truth, with little or no regard for what anyone else might think. Find those few leaders and back them to the hilt. Restoring the Republic with Tom Hoefling
August 26, 2016 Jerry Weber Tom Hoefling joined me in 2012 while running for President from the America’s Party, and four years later he has joined me once again. Tom continues to be resilient and go against the odd’s out of his love for America, and to help make abortion a thing of the past in this nation. The second key to Tom’s platform is “Restore governmental protection for the equal right of all innocent persons, including unborn persons, to live“. Just as he did on this show in 2012, Tom explains what his plan would be to defend life and shut down every abortion facility in the nation, even if it means facing impeachment. It’s an honor to speak to Mr. Hoefling once again, and I encourage all listeners to check out his website at tomhoefling.com. Credit for the music used in this show goes to Ryohei Kanayama for the instrumental cover of The Beatles “Wait”, and Gypsy Hook for “Puerto Escondido”. No artists are affiliated nor endorse this show in any way. I spend a whole lot of my time hammering on what I consider to be the central moral and constitutional questions of our day, because I believe that if we lose our moral foundations, if we don't have a Constitution that is being followed, if we don't have representatives with enough understanding and commitment to keep their oaths made to God to support and defend that Constitution, along with its moral basis, our physical security and economic existence is absolutely certain to collapse as well.
But that doesn't mean that I don't care about or understand security and economic matters. I do. I have a deep desire, proven over more than two decades, to address the pressing threats to our national sovereignty, security, and borders, and our economic well-being. Here's the bottom line: If we solve our moral problem, we will have fixed our governmental problem, and then fixing our security and money problems will be relatively easy. "Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain." -- Psalm 127:1-5 "If God be for us, who can be against us?" -- Romans 8:31 Tom Hoefling America's Party 2016 presidential nomination acceptance speech - August 27, 20168/27/2016 Listen here: Full transcript:
Tom Hoefling America's Party 2016 presidential nomination acceptance speech, delivered August 27th, 2016 Thank you all very much. I am deeply honored and grateful to receive the presidential nomination of America’s Party once again, mainly because I believe that America’s Party people are the best people in America. You are truly the salt of the earth. One of the greatest blessings of my life has been my association with you all. America’s Party represents a new hope for the restoration of the American republic, this great free constitutional republic which was gifted to us by the grace of Almighty God, and by the wisdom, commitment, and self-sacrifice of our forebears. Those brave forebears laid their lives and their fortunes on the line for life and liberty, and refused to, in groveling fear, sacrifice their sacred honor, or the future of their children, on the altar of any earthly king or tyrant. May all of us in this party continue to strive to follow their example. My friends, you are a part of something unique, and very special, and essential. America’s Party represents a new hope for a renewed sense of our obligations as a people to God, to self-evident truth, to moral principle, and to duties of the oath of public office, at all levels of government, and in every branch of government. America’s Party represents a new hope for our children and grandchildren, that they too might have the chance we had to enjoy the Blessings of Liberty that we have enjoyed throughout our lives. I truly believe that America’s Party - or rather the principles and the people that it represents - provides the only real political hope for the American republic, and for our Posterity. We live in a time when a real sense of national decay, of moral degradation, and even of fear and despair, has gripped many hearts all across this land. There is a consensus developing in the country that the existing political parties, the political elites who are now in power, have betrayed us. An ever-increasing number of our fellow citizens are coming to understand that this betrayal, is, before anything else, a betrayal of the One Who created us, a betrayal of the self-evident truths of our national founding, a betrayal of our national principles which are deeply grounded in the laws of nature and nature’s God, and a heinous betrayal of our Constitution, which is still, to this hour, the supreme law of our land. More and more Americans are realizing that, to have any real hope for the future, we must humbly return, with a repentant heart, both individually and as a people, to our historic faith in the God of the Bible. More and more Americans are realizing that we must return to our understanding that both God and our Constitution absolutely require equal protection for the unalienable rights of all persons, including the rights of those helpless, defenseless, innocent persons who are as yet unborn. They are remembering that government, in fact, exists, before anything else, to protect our rights. Do not despise the day of small things! We are standing on the side of the truth! We are standing on the side of moral right! We are standing on the side of God and nature! Those who are fighting God and nature in this country, who ignore the simple child-like understanding of simple right and wrong, and who continue to ignore our Constitution’s stated purposes and requirements, may appear strong, But they are not. They are weak. They cannot succeed, not over the long haul. They may prevail for a short time, but the end of their chosen path is, inevitably, destruction. America, stop following them! No matter how it may temporarily look to worldly eyes, do not believe that we are weak! Don’t believe it for a moment! We are not! We are strong beyond compare. Why? Because, like the generations of Americans who came before us, we have faith. Because we, like them, hold to self-evident truth. Because, unlike those who continue to abjectly follow the godless “lesser-of-evils,” lowest-common-denominator, political philosophy of the Democrat and the Republican parties, we are on the side of simple right, and on the side of the God-given rights of the people, and on the side of the Constitution. Yes, we are offering America a return to principle, which is essential. But that’s not all we are offering. We are also offering the practical means for putting our nation back on the right path. We are offering a restoration of our political process, which has also been co-opted, and corrupted, in our day. We are showing the American people exactly how to take our politics back from the money interests, back from the corporate media, and to restore government of the people, by the people, and for the people, not just in nice political rhetoric, but in actual fact. America, it’s time to abandon the corrupt existing parties. Throw them on the ash heap of history, where they belong. Join us in stopping the abortion holocaust in this country, before the judgment of God falls our our heads. Join us in protecting marriage and the natural family, the way God created, defined, and instituted it. Join us in protecting our right to keep and bear arms. Join us in securing our national sovereignty, our national security, and our national borders. Join us in putting government back inside the constitutional box where it belongs. Join us in restoring respect in government for the Enumerated Powers of our Constitution. Join us in replacing the federal income tax with a fair and simple alternative that doesn’t destroy our liberty and our chance at material prosperity. Join us in restoring our monetary system, in ending the Federal Reserve, and in taking the power over our money back into our own hands. Join us in restoring parental rights and True Local Control of our schools. And, last but certainly not least, join us in restoring checks and balances in government. Help us restrain these judges who wrongly believe they are our rulers, who ignore the laws of God, the laws of nature, and the explicit, imperative requirements of the Constitution they swore to uphold. If you truly care about restoring moral, constitutional, representative self-government, I ask you for your vote on November 8th. If you don’t see my name on your ballot, shock the political world by writing it in. If I truly represent you and what you believe, don’t be bullied into voting for someone who does not represent you. Again, our forefathers fought, and sacrificed, and bled, and some even died, to give you the precious gift of representative self-government. Stop letting them swindle you, and your posterity, out of that precious gift. Thank you, and may God bless America, as we once again bless Him. Tom Hoefling
Hold all proposed "pro-life" legislation and public policy up to the light of "You shall not murder," and ""No person shall be deprived of life without due process of law," and "No State shall deprive any person of life without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." If the proposed legislation or public policy fails the equal protection test, which is absolutely demanded without exception by God and the U.S. Constitution, reject it. If a candidate for public office, any public office, does not understand the absolute requirement by God and the U.S. Constitution that the equal rights of all persons be protected, reject their candidacy. They can't possibly keep the most important obligations of their sacred oath. As our national charter, the Declaration of Independence, boldly, correctly, asserts, the protection of our God-given, unalienable, individual rights, starting with the supreme right, the right to live, is the very raison d'etre, or reason for being, of all legitimate human government. This understanding, especially by those who call themselves Christians in America, is the starting point for ending the abortion holocaust in America once and for all. There is no other starting point. By the way, it must be noted that none of my opponents for the presidency on November 8th have demonstrated a thorough understanding of, and commitment to, the crucial things I've said here today.

BlogTalkRadio.com LISTEN HERE With Ryan Sharp, Vice-Chairman of America's Party Florida America's Party of Florida is affiliated with America's Party, a national party dedicated to America's First Principles indicated in the Declaration of Independence and original Constitution of the United States and Bill of Rights. The party emphasizes the sovereignty of God and our sovereignty as a people and nation under Him. Recognizing that we are endowed by our Creator with certain inalienable rights, including life and liberty, as free citizens guaranteed by the Constitution a republican form of government, we endeavor to maintain our freedom and sovereignty. Contact Ryan at 727-798-1101 America's Party National Committee www.selfgovernment.us/ Tom's Hoefling's words: "Just as 'good fences make for good neighbors,' good government is mainly about knowing where the legitimate boundaries are, and having the courage to defend those borders forcefully. This is true in terms of the defense of our territory, our security, and our national sovereignty, but it also applies to the sworn duty of all of those in government to equally protect the God-given, unalienable rights of each individual person, from their creation onward, their sacred obligation to stay well within the enumerated powers of our constitutions, and of the role legitimate government must play in balancing the competing rights and interests of the people, in order to establish justice."
