The Consent of the Governed is a blistering indictment of a government that no longer serves its citizens. It has become a cancer growing larger with each generation while consuming the very liberties it is supposed to protect.With historical clarity, legal precision, and relentless argument, Christian exposes the lies, manipulations, and power structures that the government uses to feed itself without the consent of its citizens and at their expense. He turns back to the Republic's first principle — the consent of the governed — in an effort to return us to a government by the people and for the people.This book speaks to readers who: Sense that the federal government has grown dangerous, distant, and unaccountable, Are alarmed by the erosion of individual liberty and the rule of law, Want a clear, unapologetic argument for restoring true self-government. About the AuthorDavid B. Christian is a practicing attorney from Woodward, Oklahoma. He was born, raised, and has lived his life in Oklahoma. Like most people in this country, he is far removed from the ivory towers and the tyranny in Washington, D.C. Christian believes that the federal government has crossed into dangerous and unlawful territory and no longer operates with the consent of those it governs — the citizens. It is his hope to help correct this nation's course for the benefit of all.
