TNM Radio Adds Constitutional Expert Donaldson

Constitutional scholar Gerry Donaldson, whose "Our Constitution: Foundation and Principles" show has been a fixture on Tuesday nights on the Patriots Heart Network on BlogTalk Radio, is bringing his show to the Texas Nationalist Movement's lineup.

Donaldson will keep his 8-10 p.m. Central time slot as he moves to the TNM network, joining "Let's Talk Texas," hosted by Cary Wise on Mondays from 8-10 p.m., and "Texas Perspectives," hosted by TNM President Daniel Miller and VP Lauren Savage from 8-10 p.m. on Wednesdays.

Donaldson, who also heads up drawaline.org, a website dedicated to promoting state sovereignty, has been a member of the Texas Nationalist Movement for several years, and says that although his show focuses on the U.S. Constitution, the messages reinforces what the movement stands for.

"I spoke with president Miller and asked if I should change what the show was about, and he said no, it's great just the way it is," Donaldson said. "I have been educating on the principles of constitutional government and the bill of rights for years, and that is fundamental to what the movement is all about.

"Founding fathers like Patrick Henry, George Mason, John C. Calhoun, these are the people who understood the limitations the Constitution put on the federal government," he added. "These are the same principles behind what we are doing."

Miller welcomed the addition, saying that Donaldson's expertise is invaluable.

"The Texas Nationalist Movement stands here because the federal government is not obeying the Constitution which is supposed to limit its powers," Miller said. "Having an expert like Gerry to explain this both to our members and to those who are curious, helps us continue to educate."

"What is not normally remembered or taught in public school is that the 13 original colonies were founded by the educated," Donaldson said.

"Most colonists were religious or economically oppressed minorities in the countries they had come from who had educated themselves and their children to overcome adversity.

"These were not the compliant, uneducated peasants, and serfs of their feudal lords. These were people who read extensively and taught their children the historical foundation of America and the principles they needed to advance our country and their position in life," he added. "This radio show is for educating Americans on these Foundations and Principles in order to restore our great Republic."
