The American form of government is a republic.

. Form of Government: Republic, Not Pure Democracy Opens with Noah Webster’s 1828 definition: a republic is a commonwealth in which sovereign power is exercised by elected representatives; it differs from a pure democracy in which the people exercise power directly. Cites Article IV, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution: “The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government…” Notes the Pledge of Allegiance’s reference to “the Republic for which it stands.” Quotes Noah Webster (via Hall & Slater) that the genuine source of correct republican principles is the Bible, especially the New Testament. Benjamin Rush (signer of the Declaration) argues that the only way to establish and perpetuate republican government is universal education of youth in the principles of Christianity through the Bible; he links biblical teaching to equality, respect for just laws, and the “sober and frugal virtues” that form the soul of republicanism.

Trump & Masterson Launch “Kansas River Luxury Cruises”

Image
(Featuring the official flagship) Look at this beauty. This is the vessel. The pride of the fleet. The ship that will “never let you down.” Donald Trump and Ty Masterson have apparently partnered up to launch a brand-new cruise line that will ply the mighty Kansas River. They were originally going to put a casino on it — because nothing says fiscal genius like Trump’s Atlantic City track record — but that idea sank faster than the boat itself. So now it’s just a “luxury river experience.” And who did they put in charge of boat repair and construction? Ty Masterson. The same Ty Masterson whose home-building company, Masterbuilt Homes, collapsed in 2006. The same guy who blamed a former employee for the unauthorized charges and mismanaged projects. The same guy who later filed Chapter 7 with roughly $300,000 in assets against $1.13 million in debts and left creditors with pennies. The same guy who in 2008 told voters he would never declare bankruptcy out of “personal responsibility...

  "You're Fired, Ty" (A boardroom that never happened, but should have) Scene: The Apprentice boardroom. Trump is in the big chair, hair perfect, scowl locked and loaded. Ty Masterson sits across the table in a stiff suit, trying to look like a serious businessman who definitely did not crater a home-building company and then file Chapter 7. Trump leans forward. “Ty. Masterbuilt Homes. Failed in 2006. You blamed a former employee for unauthorized charges and mismanaged projects. Classic. Always the employee’s fault. Never the guy whose name is on the door. Then four years later you walk into bankruptcy court with three hundred thousand in assets and one-point-one-three million in debts. Corner Bank. Emprise Bank. Over a hundred sixty thousand on the credit cards. Case closed in 2012. Creditors got almost nothing. Beautiful.” Masterson starts the usual speech. Personal responsibility. Buck stops here. Attorneys told me to file but I refused out of principle… back in 20...

Kansans are entitled to ask what “successful” means in this context.

Trump’s “Fantastic Candidate” Who Mastered Bankruptcy Ty Masterson likes to present himself as a successful small-business man who understands the real economy. President Trump has now endorsed that version of the story, declaring Masterson a “fantastic Candidate” with his “Complete and Total Endorsement” to be the next governor of Kansas and promising that “HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN.” The public record tells a different story. Masterson’s construction company, Masterbuilt Homes, collapsed around 2006. According to Masterson himself, the failure was the fault of a former employee who made errors, mismanaged projects, and ran up unauthorized charges. The company went under. The debts did not. In late 2010 Masterson filed personal Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Court records showed roughly $300,000 in assets against about $1.13 million in debts. Nearly $885,000 of that was unsecured. Among the commercial loans were approximately $209,000 to Corner Bank and $53,890 to Emprise Bank, plus more than...
