Matt Nemeth Reports from West Nashville Summit with Ken Marrerro

Hello All and Merry Christmas!


Yesterday we had a great meeting out at the Shoney's on White Bridge.  Thank you to all who attended and welcome to those who were new!

Ken Marrero is an excellent speaker and we are luckily to have him reside here in middle Tennessee.  He beams of passion, kindness and knowledge while he is speaking.  His idea of "Second-Hand Liberty" is one that drove me to think more about how we should approach government.  As Ken says, we created the government to preserve liberty but now find ourselves almost begging them to maintain that job.  Our liberties should never be begged for.

During his speech Ken mentioned Patrick Henry's address regarding his famous "give me liberty" speech.  When I got home I looked up the entire speech and was amazed that I had never read it.  If you have never read it, please follow this link to do so: http://libertyonline.hypermall.com/henry-liberty.html

Also, if you want to keep up with Ken's blog, you can do so through this link: http://conservablogs.com/bluecollarmuse/.  Believe me, you will not be disappointed.

Look for updates regarding next month's breakfast and, as always, let me know if you have any ideas for speakers!

Have a great holiday!
Matt Nemeth
