Product Information

What Does the Constitution Really Mean? Are liberals right when they cite the "elastic" clauses of the Constitution to justify big government? Or are conservatives right when they cite the Constitution's explicit limits on federal power? The answer lies in a more basic question: How did the founding generation intend for us to interpret and app

Praise for The Founding Fathers Guide to the Constitution For generations, left-wing judges, professors, and lawyers have told us that we can never know what the Constitution was supposed to mean, so judges are free to do what they want. Yet, in The Founding Fathers' Guide to the Constitution , Brion McClanahan gives us a clear, clause-by-clause explanation of the original understanding of the Constitution. Constitutional government is possible, if only officials would be true to their oaths." -Kevin R. C. Gutzman , J.D., Ph.D., author of The Politically Incorrect Guideâ„¢ to the Constitution The Constitution for the United States, like all human creations, has been changed by the inescapable ravages of time. Not only the passage of time, but ambition, rent-seeking, ignorance, deception, misunderstanding, ideology, and the lust for power have encrusted our basic instrument of government with layer upon layer of false assumptions and distorted postures that have blocked us from knowing its real meaning and intent. Dr. McClanahan, with insight, painstaking effort, and that rare thing, plain common sense, has presented here as good a picture as we will get of what the Constitution really meant to those who wrote and ratified it. This book is not only a notable feat of historianship, but also an important exercise of citizenship that will enlighten those who yearn for truth." -Clyde N. Wilson , Emeritus Distinguished Professor of History, University of South Carolina Professor McClanahan provides us with an invaluable window into the intent of all the Framers. This book can best be described as intellectual hard medicine. The readers' minds will be purged of all the nonsense they have been taught about the Constitution so they can see the document as intended by the founding generation that produced it." -Dr. Marshall DeRosa , Professor of Political Science, Florida Atlantic University Brion McClanahan's Founding Fathers' Guide to the Constitution takes the guesswork out of what the Founders intended. It's all here, in their own words, which any layman can understand-and just as important, use as the standard to assess the wayward judges, congressmen, and executives of our federal government." -Thomas E. Woods, Jr. , bestselling author of The Politically Incorrect Guideâ„¢ to American History and Rollback: Repealing Big Government Before the Coming Fiscal Collapse, Praise for The Founding Fathers Guide to the Constitution "For generations, left-wing judges, professors, and lawyers have told us that we can never know what the Constitution was supposed to mean, so judges are free to do what they want.
