The Left-Right Paradigm

By Douglas V. Gibbs

The left-right paradigm presented by the enemies of the Constitution, in truth, does not exist.

 There is a right and a left in politics, but it is not what has been presented to the American People.  On the political spectrum the U.S. Constitution is dead center.  Supporting it does not make someone “right-wing”.  Only anarchy, and conditions less centralized than what the Constitution offers, would technically be to the right, politically.  Everything else, it turns out, is to the left of the U.S. Constitution.


Democracy technically resides to the right of the U.S. Constitution since the checks and balances and “multiple constituencies” of a republic do not exist in a democracy.  Historically, democracy is used by those who seek to rule as a tool to ultimately bring about an oligarchy.  Like democracy, anarchy never lasts, and when the people get to the point of crying out for someone to bring order to the chaos being caused by the unstable right-of-center systems, the very people who created the lawlessness of anarchy or the corruption of a democracy guided by the wealthy and the powerful, the very people who launched society into either of those systems then step up claiming it is they who can bring order back to the lawless society.  The new leaders then establish an oligarchy, leading the people into the bondage of tyranny on the opposite side of the spectrum.
