Ron Paul often talks about “getting rid of all the departments”. Because the departments are created by the Federal government many of us logically conclude that we must change the Federal government in order to end the departments. Fortunately our founding fathers believed government power should be limited by many layers of checks and balances and so they gave to the states the right to nullify (the right to ignore) any Unconstitutional Federal government action or creation. I bring all of this up because the word on the street is that Phil Moffett, who is running for governor of Kentucky, is making plans to pose some serious challenges to the Federal government via nullification. I’ll tell you more on that when I know more but for now I hope you’ll enjoy this interview by Jack Hunter with Phil Moffett that took place in support of Rand Paul’s “The Tea Party Goes To Washington” Bookbomb.
