Brannon Howse: May 20, 2010

Topic One: Brannon's worldview class has chance to question three candidates running for Governor in Tennessee. Topic Two: U.S. Supreme court hands down ruling in the case Graham v. Florida. In which they cite a section of the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child. This is extremely dangerous because this treaty has not been ratified by the U.S. Senate. However, through the high Court citing the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child as international precedent, the Court is laying a foundation of case law for the treaty to be implemented through judicial activism. Topic Three: Federal law would have the government tracking the body mass index of your children. This is another attempt to pry into the family by the nanny state. Topic Four: U.S. Supreme Court nominee Kagan, as solicitor general, that the government can ban books or pamphlets deemed "political electioneering". Topic Five: We take your calls.
