In the Constitutional Hero series, Senator Ron Paul is a champion.

He has been running for President of the United States, and seeking the Republican Party nomination–and, in the process, created a HUGE momentum. He has raised unprecedented amounts of money from the Internet, gathered a large collection of supporters, and has maintained a consistent message and voting record for support (and return to) the values of the Constitution.

Now, Ron Paul has changed his focus and is running a Campaign for Liberty–which will hold a Grand Rally for Liberty on Tuesday, September 2nd.  Mark your calendars.

Watch the Video of Ron Paul on MSNBC’s show, “Morning Joe.”

Alrick Brown, Director of “Battle for America,” is a Constitutional Hero. His Video, Battle for America, is a masterpiece and a wonderful reminder of the values of America.

This video surfaced immediately after the 2004 election. Statements like, “I will deliver Ohio to you, Mr. President,” from Ohio State Voting Commissioner, Ken Blackwell, and it later coming to fruition did not sit too well with many Americans. (Many of the voting discrepancies are described by Black Box Voting.)

There was also a feeling of Helplessness. What can WE do? Ohio’s votes were counted behind closed doors under the protection of Armed Guards. It was the same feeling of helplessness that came from 2000 when Justice Scalia decided the President in the Supreme Court.

Alrick Brown responded within days to that 2004 feeling of helplessness with his video, “Battle for America.”

If you love America, it is time to defend the Constitution of the United States of America.

The Constitution is an amazing document.  Created on September 17, 1787 and ratified on June 21, 1788 and is the Supreme Law of the United States of America–until now. Over the last 8 years, the Constitution has been challenged by policies and actions designed explicitly to circumvent that Supreme Law that it details.

My claims are no secret, and they are not my own. The news is riddled with articles and documentaries about it:

• an illegal Iraq war–Congress never declared war
• a military tribunal system for detainees–designed to circumvent the Rule of Law
• Alberto Gonzales, the acting US Attorney General, stated that “Habeas Corpus no longer applies” to Americans
• over 10,000 pieces of legislation were introduced by George Bush–a member of the Executive Branch that by design, does not have the power to introduce legislation
• Countless examples of US Citizens being silenced for exercising their Freedom of Speech
• US Citizens being forced to disperse–violation of our Freedom of Assembly
• Under the claim of “National Security,” the Bush Administration continues to ignore the Fourth Amendment. According to the Bush Administration, they HAVE probable cause. It is simply not safe for the judges, lawyers, or the people being prosecuted to know what that evidence was . . . .
• I. Scooter Libby, from Vice President Dick Cheney’s office was found guilty of perjury.  No one has been prosecuted in the case or found to be responsible for revealing details to the media of an undercover operative, Valerie Plame (a treasonous act)–and, yet, the details got out there. Libby’s  sentence was commuted by George Bush.

There are, however, a few sources of inspiration of people and groups that have been resisting the assault on the rights and duties, roles and responsibilities outlined in the US Constitution. Over the next few days, I will be profiling these Defenders of Freedom and Constitutional Heroes.

Let their actions be inspirations for us all . . . .
