The Goebbels Corollary | by Joe DeMaio

An Excerpt of His Article Shared Here With Link to Full Article

(Mar. 27, 2023) — Introduction

Paraphrasing Third Reich Minister of Propaganda Joseph Goebbels: “If you are going to tell a lie, make it a big one, as no one will believe a small one, and repeat it over and over, because eventually people will come to accept it as the truth.”

*Joseph Goebbels was Minister of Propaganda during Hitler’s reign (Attribution: Bundesarchiv, Bild 146-1968-101-20A / Heinrich Hoffmann/CC-BY-SA 3.0)*

For purposes of this offering, however, let us label the careless but “presumptively” non-malicious use of words leading to false or erroneous conclusions and the intentional omission of facts and words to be similar to, but something short of actual “lies.” The current analogous term would be “misinformation.” For now, let us call it the “Goebbels Corollary.”

Turning to the thrust of this post, in the continuing saga of the meaning of the term “natural born Citizen” (“nbC”) in Art. 2, § 1, Cl. 5 of the Constitution – the presidential “Eligibility Clause” – the battle continues to rage over what, exactly, the Founders meant when they carefully selected that restriction. At bottom, the clause requires that a President (and via the 12^th Amendment, a Vice-President) must be a “natural born Citizen” owing sole and exclusive fidelity and allegiance to the United States, subject only to a “Citizen of the United States at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution” time-restricted (and now long-expired) exception.

Without going over in burdensome detail, and for the umpteenth time, the positions of those who believe – with solid justification – that the term was based on § 212 of Emmerich de Vattel’s The Law of Nations or those who, on the other hand, contend either that a “citizen at birth” or a “citizen by birth” under the 14^th Amendment or that the “common law” of Great Britain – which nation George Washington had decisively “whupped” a few years earlier – control the meaning, one discrete aspect of the issue has come to your humble servant’s attention.

Specifically, your servant, prompted by The P&E’s intrepid Editor acting on a reader’s alert, now addresses how that paragon of principle and Internet search engine protocols – Google – treats the issue of what, purportedly, it “informs” billions of people what it wants them collectively to believe constitutes a “natural born Citizen.” The treatment by others will also be addressed. …

Read this essay regarding the constitutional term “natural born Citizen” and basic logic, i.e., trees are plants but not all plants are trees. “Natural born Citizens” are a subset of “born Citizens (citizens at birth)”. Adjectives mean something. All “natural born Citizens” are “born Citizens (citizens at birth) but not all “born Citizens (citizens at birth)” are “natural born Citizens”: https://cdrkerchner.wordpress.com/2012/06/20/of-natural-born-citizens-and-citizens-at-birth-and-basic-logic-trees-are-plants-but-not-all-plants-are-trees-natural-born-citizens-nbc-are-citizens-at-birth-cab-but-not-all-cab/

“Who Was Karl Marx?: The Men, the Motives and the Menace Behind Today’s Rampaging American Left” by James Simpson

A must read. A very good book about the Culture War and the manipulation of the meaning of words, speech, language, infiltration of all the major institutions of our culture, and other tactics by the far-left past and present to undermine and subvert the nation’s culture and in the process achieve its political objective to overthrow the constitutional republic form of government in the USA and replace it with a socialist totalitarian government: “Who Was Karl Marx?: The Men, the Motives and the Menace Behind Today’s Rampaging Americ an Left” by James Simpson

The book is a well researched , well written, easy to read book about the cast of characters in history (and those in the present generation too) who are orchestrating the great movement to undermine our culture and common sense in the USA in an effort to overthrow our constitutional republic and replace it eventually with a socialist/communist dictatorial central government far beyond and more controlling than what we are experiencing already, which at present is the worst I’ve seen it in our nation in my life time.

I knew many of the names, but not all of them. As you read this book you will see exactly who put forward that particular strategy being used in which circumstances to destroy our culture and country.

The end-goal of the people, past and present, profiled in this book is the complete destruction of America as we have known it. What we are seeing happening is not an accident. We are seeing the end-game of a plan of action that has taken generations to finalize. And permanently finalizing the plan as quickly as possible before too many people wake up and fight back is the Biden, Obama, and Harris agenda.

The book also provides strategies one can use to fight back against this rapidly metastasizing threat to our culture and everything we held dear about our country.

As they say, know thy enemy and his play book. And this book tells us who they were and who their modern disciples of today still are, and their plans, strategies, and modus operandi.

I highly recommend everyone reading this review to read this book. And after you have read it, recommend it to others too. I certainly will.

Pass the word!
