February 2009

Dr. Brian T. Kennedy

Dr. Kennedy reminded us that we are a government of the people, by the people and for the people.

Dr. Brian Kennedy held an audience of 105 people rapt for 90 minutes as he presented his ideas, and accepted 45 minutes of Q & A. He first reminded the audience that we are a government of the people, by the people and for the people. At the same time, he also quoted Winston Churchill, "Our freedom could be lost."

Brian indicated that we face three existential threats as follows:

1. Decline of Constitutional Government.

2. Disintegration of our society and culture.

3. The real threat of radical Islam.

Brian pointed out that our goverment has exceeded its authority. The purpose of the government is the protection of our rights and to provide national security. Those are the fundamentals of limited government, which our founders implored us to maintain. Brian also indicated that when we tell the conservative story about America, people gravitate to it.

Brian stated that a cultural transformation is occurring in Southern California due solely to illegal immigration. He told us that Mexico is already a failed state. When asked what could be done, given the current set of circumstances, he indicated first and foremost, we must enforce our current immigration laws.  

Finally, Brian repeated many times that "Islam is not a religion of peace." He encouraged us to read and understand the Koran. He said that we must tell the truth about Iran. He shared a realistic, but very scary scenario about the Iranians releasing a nuclear warhead over the United States. By doing this in space, it would destroy the elecromagnetic field which could wipe out all electricity in the United States. It has been estimated that 90% of Americans would die within a relatively short period of time if  a nuclear warhead were successfully detonated, and our electomagnetic field was destroyed. Iran has already twice tested this procedure.  

Dr. Kennedy indicated that if conservatives are to rebound politically, we must openly and candidly discuss the size of government, illegal immigration, and national security. These are issues that resonate in our favor with American citizens.
