Most Americans have been taught that the United States is either a democracy or a single republic. But as this presentation reveals, that’s not what the Founders created. Drawing directly from the words of Madison, Jefferson, and others, this talk uncovers the forgotten truth that the Constitution established a confederation of sovereign republics — a voluntary compact among independent states, not the creation of a national government. Understanding that distinction changes everything about how we see federal authority, states’ rights, and our duty to defend liberty today.
In this eye-opening presentation, Ben McClintock explores how a single word — “for” instead of “of” in “The Constitution for the United States” — holds the key to recovering the Founders’ design. You’ll see how they defined “Congress,” “federal,” and “compact” in their own time, and how those meanings reveal a system built to preserve state sovereignty and limit centralized power. If you care about restoring liberty through understanding, this is a message you can’t afford to miss.
