The Federalist Society is founded on the freedoms that the separation of governmental powers is central to our constitution and that is emphatically the province and duty of the judiciary to tell you what the law is, not what it should be. The society seeks to promote both an awareness of these principles and to further their application. Now, you may notice i have an adam smith tie on today, and that is not because we have an economic historian coming to speak to us, but it is because adam smith was principally an educator. He was a professor and a private tutor, and he was beloved by his students. And marcus witcher, you have seen throughout the day, is known as a very exuberant, enthusiastic educator. I first met marcus several years ago at an institute, or you may say a conference, i spoke, and then he followed me. He later told me, and i mean years later, that he was so relieved that i went first, because i did not do such a good job, i made it so much easier for him to follow. [l
To december 26th, 1991 with the collapse of the soviet union. It was a geopolitical standoff. Each one could have destroyed the world through a nuclear war but the cold war do d that.

Museum at vint hill, virginia, 45 miles west of washington, d. C. I founded the Cold War Museum in 1986 to honor cold war veterans, preserve cold war history and educate future generations about the time period. What i realized when i was giving lectures to High School Students in this area, nine times out of ten, the students wouldnt know anything about the cold war or the u2 incident. They would think the u2 incident had something to do with the u2 rock band. As a result, i knew they needed to be taught about the cold wartime period. As a result, i ended up noticing they needed to be taught about the cold war time period. So in 1996, we founded the Cold War Museum, which opened in 2011 here at vint hill farms station, a former Army Communication base near the washington, d. C. , area. It used to be used by nsa, cia, asa, Army Security agency, and other groups to monitor the Electronic Communications from around the washington, d.
