[applause] pm may a little over 40 years ago in a Little Village in oxfordshire, i signed up to be a member of the conservative party. Ago in a Little Village in oxfordshire, i signed up to be a member of the conservative party. I did it because it is a party that has the ideas to build a better britain. It is understood the hard work and discipline necessary to see them through, and it has at its heart a simple promise that spoke to me, my values and aspirations, that each new generation in our country should be able to build a Better Future. That each generation should live the british dream, and that dream is what i believe in. But what the general election earlier this year showed is that too manylater, for people in our country, that dream feels distant. Our partys ability to deliver it is in question. And the british dream that has inspired generations of britain feels increasingly out of reach. I called the election and i know all of you in this hall, your friends and family, wo
There would be no federal government. The parties of the contract come together to make the terms of the contract design the contract, and ultimately sign the contract. In our Constitutional Republic, the states on the parties of the contract. There are some who teach that the constitution is an agreement between the people and the federal government. That is not true. It cant be true. We can show that to be false by one simple fact. How was the constitution ratified . Was it ratified by popular vote . You cannot siren the contract into legal being until the contract is you dont exist until the contract is already signed.

Author, chris hall, as we sit here in early august, how is President Trump doing . [applause] well, hes a president. And . I teach the constitution as it was intended to be applied. The president s in america has operated outside the realm of their authority. So, to judge trump, for me is not to judge them against obama or george w. Bush, but use the constitution as a standard. Sometimes hes good, sometimes, not so much. So that is how we view what goes on in washington, d. C. Not based on Political Party, not based on personality, but based on the standard by which all americans should hold their federal government. When you use that measuring stick, which president s in your view have adhered to the constitution . Which havent. Its been a very long time since weve had a president that was tru
The president doing . He is the president and . I tc constitution as it was intended to be applied. And the president s in america have operated outside of the realm of their executive authority constitutionally speaking for decades. So, to judge donald trump for me is not to judge him against obama or merge w bush. In your view have adhered to the constitution. Guest it has been a long time since we had a president that was truly constitutional. Look at article ii of the constitution, that is the delegated authority for the executive branch. When we look at that we realize how little power the president has especially autonomously, i show my students you look at the constitution, article 1, the powers delegated to congress, article 2 delegated to the president and article 3 delegated to the judiciary. In america we gravitated more toward an allconsuming executive rather than an executive in service to the legislative. What we have now in america is a bit of an aberration of what the p
