The Foundations of American Government Booklet
By David Barton / Wallbuilders
This transcript of the video by the same title is designed as a tool to demonstrate that the current separation of church and state is something never intended by the Founding Fathers. It not only surveys the historical statements and records surrounding the original drafting of the First Amendment, but also shows what happened statistically when the 1962 Court rejected the Founders' intent. It further shows that the current Court is beginning to return to and uphold many values previously struck down. This trascript gives and overview of the Founder's own understanding of the First Amendment and will be helpful to anyone who desires to know the truth about their interpretations. 16 pages, paperback. From Wall Builders.

Original Intent Hardcover
By David Barton / Wallbuilders
In their own words, the Supreme Court has become "a national theology board," "a super board of education," and amateur psychologist on a "psycho-journey." The result has been a virtual rewriting of the liberties enumerated in the Constitution. A direct victim of this judicial micromanagement has been the religious aspect of the First Amendment. Additional casualties of judicial activism have included protections for State's rights, local controls, separation of powers, legislative supremacy, and numerous other constitutional provisions. Why did earlier Courts protect these powers for generations, and what has caused their erosion by contemporary Courts? This book answers these questions. By relying on thousands of primary sources, Original Intent documents (in the Founding Father's own words) not only the plan for limited government originally set forth in the Constitution and Bill of Rights but how that vision can once again become reality.

The Second Amendment
By David Barton / Wallbuilders
The Second Amendment has today become one of the most controversial parts of the Constitution. Gun opponents claim that "the right to keep and bear arms" is a right that belongs only to the police and military. However, the Founding Fathers who wrote the Second Amendment in 1789 disagreed. Read their words and examine their early laws and State constitutions on this subject. The conclusion is inescapable that the guarantees of the Second Amendment pertain to every citizen individually. Furthermore, learn of the Founders' timeless proposals made two centuries ago on how to deal with the gun violence that today shatters communities and causes the loss of innocent life.

Impeachment - Restraining an Overactive Judiciary
By David Barton / Wallbuilders
Whereas Americans once enjoyed the finest fruits of judicial integrity, we now speak with distaste at the many unpalatable decisions served by our robed officials. Popular and long-standing religious expressions are muzzled; criminals are released on technicalities; jury verdicts are deemed irrelevant; the will of the people is ignored. All of these travesties, and more, are handed down from judges who hold their offices for life - who often rule not on the basis of the Constitution they swore to uphold but rather according to their own personal values and agendas - who have usurped power and become robed legislators. In Restraining Judicial Activism, David Barton illustrates the current extremes of egregious judicial decisions and discusses the constitutional process of removing reprobate judges from office, using the means specifically designated by the Founding Fathers in the Constitution. With concise clarity, Barton describes the historical perspective on removing overactive judges through impeachment, and aptly compares the current misconceptions on impeachable offenses with the Constitution's explicit provisions. Restraining Judicial Activism/i> presents the reader a workable solution for restoring justice to the American courtroom.
