Dear Patriot, We had quite a week around here with the launch of Herman Cain’s new book and all the attention it generated. We want you to share in the excitement so let’s get right to it!
What a launch for 9-9-9: An Army of Davids!
Wednesday saw the official release of 9-9-9: An Army of Davids, the new book from Herman Cain and co-author Rich Lowrie. With major national media coverage and lots of excitement among supporters, we’re pleased to report the book has truly taken the nation by storm.
Have you got your copy yet? If not, you can pick it up at your local bookstore or buy it online here. If you missed some of the interviews and appearances Mr. Cain was able to make during the week, we thought it would be fun to share a few of them here:
The national media kickoff interview went to Sean Hannity of Fox News Channel. Click the image to see the interview!
Fellow FairTax supporter Mike Huckabee welcomed Mr. Cain to his radio show on Wednesday to discuss 9-9-9 and his continued determination to see it become the law of the land. To hear the interview, click here:
Other media interviews included the Dennis Miller Show, Roe and Roeper on WLS Chicago, and Erin Burnett on CNN. And we’re just getting started! Coming up this week, you can follow the 9-9-9 momentum on the Neal Boortz Show at 10 a.m. on Monday, and on the Gerri Willis Show on Fox Business News at 5 p.m. on Monday.
Cain Makes Like Letterman on Fox & Friends
Herman Cain’s weekly commentary from April 30 listed nine horrendous Obama decisions that Mitt Romney would never have made. Fox & Friends took notice of the commentary and asked him to appear on the show on Friday, counting down five of the most horrendous decisions in David Letterman style.
To see the segment, click the image! And if Letterman wants to do a similar segment, that can be arranged . . .
Minnesota Senate Candidate is Latest to Adopt 9-9-9
 Minnesota U.S. Senate candidate Dan “Doc” Severson is the newest Lieutenant in Cain’s Army of Davids looking to return power to We the People from the hands of our big government Goliath. The Republican candidate has adopted 9-9-9 as part of his campaign platform. Among his many career accomplishments, Severson is a retired Top Gun fighter pilot and Navy commander. He also spent four terms in the Minnesota House of Representatives. Now, Severson is running for the opportunity to unseat Democrat Amy Klobuchar, who is finishing up her first term as U.S. Senator. Severson is making tax code replacement a top priority.
We’re also excited to announce that more 9-9-9 adopters are expected to be announced this week, so stay tuned!

I offer this as our Founding Fathers were Christians and put their best undestanding of Scripture in our laws. (Bob and Elaine Alford)
PLEASE EVERYONE read this. It is so important to save America!!!!
A retired Constitutional lawyer has read the entire proposed healthcare bill. Read his conclusions and pass this on as you wish.
The Truth About the Health Care Bills - Michael Connelly, Ret. Constitutional Attorney
Well, I have done it! I have read the entire text of proposed House Bill 3200: The Affordable Health Care Choices Act of 2009. I studied it with particular emphasis from my area of expertise, constitutional law. I was frankly concerned that parts of the proposed law that were being discussed might be unconstitutional. What I found was far worse than what I had heard or expected.
To begin with, much of what has been said about the law and its implications is in fact true, despite what the Democrats and the media are saying. The law does provide for rationing of health care, particularly where senior citizens and other classes of citizens are involved, free health care for illegal immigrants, free abortion services, and probably forced participation in abortions by members of the medical profession.
The Bill will also eventually force private insurance companies out of business, and put everyone into a government run system. All decisions about personal health care will ultimately be made by federal bureaucrats, and most of them will not be health care professionals. Hospital admissions, payments to physicians, and allocations of necessary medical devices will be strictly controlled by the government.
However, as scary as all of that is, it just scratches the surface. In fact, I have concluded that this legislation really has no intention of providing affordable health care choices. Instead it is a convenient cover for the most massive transfer of power to the Executive Branch of government that has ever occurred, or even been contemplated If this law or a similar one is adopted, major portions of the Constitution of the United States will effectively have been destroyed.
The first thing to go will be the masterfully crafted balance of power between the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches of the U.S. Government. The Congress will be transferring to the Obama Administration authority in a number of different areas over the lives of the American people, and the businesses they own.
The irony is that the Congress doesn't have any authority to legislate in most of those areas to begin with! I defy anyone to read the text of the U.S. Constitution and find any authority granted to the members of Congress to regulate health care.
This legislation also provides for access, by the appointees of the Obama administration, of all of your personal healthcare direct violation of the specific provisions of the 4th Amendment to the Constitution information, your personal financial information, and the information of your employer, physician, and hospital. All of this is a protecting against unreasonable searches and seizures. You can also forget about the right to privacy. That will have been legislated into oblivion regardless of what the 3rd and 4th Amendments may provide...
If you decide not to have healthcare insurance, or if you have private insurance that is not deemed acceptable to the Health Choices Administrator appointed by Obama, there will be a tax imposed on you. It is called a tax instead of a fine because of the intent to avoid application of the due process clause of the 5th Amendment. However, that doesn't work because since there is nothing in the law that allows you to contest or appeal the imposition of the tax, it is definitely depriving someone of property without the due process of law.
So, there are three of those pesky amendments that the far left hate so much, out the original ten in the Bill of Rights, that are effectively nullified by this law It doesn't stop there though.
The 9th Amendment that provides: The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people;
The 10th Amendment states: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are preserved to the States respectively, or to the people. Under the provisions of this piece of Congressional handiwork neither the people nor the states are going to have any rights or powers at all in many areas that once were theirs to control.
I could write many more pages about this legislation, but I think you get the idea. This is not about health care; it is about seizing power and limiting rights... Article 6 of the Constitution requires the members of both houses of Congress to "be bound by oath or affirmation to support the Constitution." If I was a member of Congress I would not be able to vote for this legislation or anything like it, without feeling I was violating that sacred oath or affirmation. If I voted for it anyway, I would hope the American people would hold me accountable.
For those who might doubt the nature of this threat, I suggest they consult the source, the US Constitution, and Bill of Rights. There you can see exactly what we are about to have taken from us.
Michael Connelly Retired attorney, Constitutional Law Instructor Carrollton, Texas
AFTER HAVING READ THIS, PLEASE FORWARD....If you don't care about our constitution, or your rights under it, just do nothing.
WE MUST HOLD CONGRESS ACCOUNTABLE BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!!!

Male Cross-Dressers Demand Access to Women’s Restrooms and Showers in Kansas
Kansas has become the latest battleground over granting special rights to homosexuals and cross-dressers. Human Relations Commissions and/or homosexual activist groups in Lawrence, Hutchinson, Salina, Wichita, and Pittsburg have asked their respective city councils to add “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” to protected classes. Lawrence passed the ordinance. The Hutchinson City Council will vote on May 1, 2012. While all rational Americans are against discrimination, elevating “sexual orientation” or “gender identity” (a modern version of “I think, therefore I am”) to a protected civil right creates more bias. According to theFAQ Sheet by the Hutchinson Human Relations Commission, employers would be prevented from considering sexual orientation and gender identity when hiring. Dress codes would be based on the employees’ gender “expression,” not gender at birth. Places of public accommodation, including restaurants, hospitals, stores, and theaters, would be required to allow men wearing women’s clothing to use the women’s restroom. The FAQ Sheet says that if a female has a moral objection, the establishment should “encourage [her] to wait until the [male] has left the restroom.” If the Hutchinson City measure passes, places of worship that rent out to the general public would be required to rent out their building for homosexual marriages or drag queen parties. If ‘gender identity’ laws become commonplace, then any person who speaks against deviant sexual practices will be vilified, their rights will be thwarted, and their freedom of religion and of conscience will be crushed. For more information, read our news release. Mathew D. Staver - Chairman Liberty Counsel Action - 877-810-1776 PO Box 540629 - Orlando, FL 32854
