My guest for the second time is one of the greatest Americans I know, only he is Irish.  He has been a tireless cheerleader for the ideals and constitutional foundations that have made this country the shining city on the hill in spite of our flaws. He is the host of Freedom's Disciple that airs every Saturday on Blaze media and YouTube.  He has over 275 episodes talking about the principles that have made American such a beacon of hope that he has devoted more than 16 years of his life trying to legally become a citizen. He is also a keynote speaker and occasional writer for the Libertarian Republic and Glennbeck.com. We talk about how each one of us can embrace these ideas to do our part to change the world. Hint. It's by not fighting but being kind and loving to our fellow humans. Put a kettle on and enjoy. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/parrishthethought/message
