We The People - Monday Show @ 8pm CST

Today we have Ex-Marine, Iraq vet, and antiwar activist Adam Kokesh (kokeshforcongress.com) from Santa Fe, NM, on to talk about his Republican Party Candidate bid for Congress in New Mexico's 3rd District. Adam Kokesh was a Corporal in the United States Marine Corps Reserve and is a veteran of the Iraq war. In 2004, he volunteered for deployment in Iraq and served in Fallujah as part of the 3rd Civil Affairs Group. After returning from Iraq, Kokesh resumed his studies and completed his bachelor's degree in psychology at Claremont McKenna College. For two years, Kokesh was an active participant in the Iraq Veterans Against the War. Adam has been a proven defender of sound money, as well as an outspoken critic of the inflationary policies of the federal reserve system and fractional reserve banking. With ballooning debt, expanding government, and a currency that has been eviscerated by inflation, our country is now on the precipice of an economic disaster the likes of which we have never experienced. Our future is very bleak if we allow the statists in Washington to continue to spend us into oblivion. It is for this reason that we must support liberty-minded, constitutional candidates across the country, who have proven themselves to be anti-bailout, anti-stimulus, and pro-free market. Adam has realized that, “the greatest enemies of the Constitution to which I swore an oath to support and defend, are not to be found in the sands of some far off land, but rather occupying the seats of power, right here at home!” He never loses sight of the long-term goal of inspiring a new commitment to the ideals of liberty so that we may embrace a truly free society in which the initiation of violence is not tolerated, and the blessings of liberty are shared by all.
