South Carolina Governor Presented With Nullification

By on September 13, 2010 in Activism, Nullification

City councilman Steve Isom is a bigger booster of my book Nullification than I myself, if this video is any indication.  Here Governor Mark Sanford and other South Carolina officials are presented with signed copies.  Steve is insistent about getting them to read it and having them photographed with it.  He’ll definitely be on my campaign team in 2020.   (Just so no rumors get started, I’m only kidding about that.)

EDITOR’S NOTE: Tom Woods will be the keynote speaker at Nullify Now! in Orlando on 10-10-10.  Get your tickets here now – http://www.nullifynow.com/orlando/ or by calling 888-71-TICKETS

Mark Sanford to Janet Napolitano: No Real ID!

By on December 15, 2009 in Sovereignty Movement, State Sovereignty

realid-2In a letter sent last week, Governor Mark Sanford both updated Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano on South Carolina’s progress in making the state’s driver’s licenses more secure, and reiterated the administration’s strong concerns that the federal REAL ID law represents both an infringement on constitutional liberties and an unacceptable cost burden to the states.

“Given that our state’s driver’s licenses continue to be among the most secure in the nation, we remain skeptical of claims that REAL ID or PASS ID is the safest and wisest route for our state and country. While attempts to contain some of the costs associated with REAL ID in the recently amended legislation are commendable, this federal mandate still infringes on liberty and privacy rights, and in this case, discretion and caution indeed seem the better part of valor.

So for that reason, and for the fact that our state law currently prevents South Carolina from complying with REAL ID, we will continue to stand out from under this unfunded federal mandate.”
