Chuck Baldwin: My Thoughts On The Movie "American Sniper."

On the issue of educating people, it's amazing how little people know. I was having a conversation with someone the other day who thought that Al Qaeda was in control of the Iraqi government when we invaded. He then went on to bash Ron Paul's foreign policy. He talked about how Iraq attacked us on 9/11. I then explained why he had no clue what he was talking about. He gave up on that argument. Then he talked about ISIS and how they were beheading people and how anyone could possibly not support fighting them. I then explained to him that people are being killed all over the world, and asked him if he wanted to invade China as well. He responded "I'd support that" (I'm paraphrasing). He also proudly supported Lindsey Graham (and was against Tim Scott because he's black). Of course, he also wanted me to "prove" that I'm not an Obama supporter. It was depressing.
 
Easiest way to educate people is from the bully pulpit. Only two bully pulpits continue to exist in America: 1) the mainstream press, and 2) elected office.
