There is no such thing as a "national election" in the United States. The feds should have no say in how electoral votes are assigned.

The way we remember the Articles of Confederation has more to do with the success of American nationalists than with the Articles' actual record.

Federal regulators should no longer have any say over what happens on Tribal lands. The same should apply to the states as well.

The Census Bureau once helped round up Japanese-Americans for concentration camps. The Bureau could be similarly "helpful" in the future.

Thanksgiving is not simply a holiday celebrating the abundance of capitalism, but a time to give thanks for all we are grateful for.
