| At RealClearWire, a new syndication service from RealClear, editor Mike Sabo focuses on The School of Civic and Economic Thought and Leadership (SCETL) at Arizona State University. Offering undergraduate and graduate degrees in civic and economic thought and leadership, SCETL provides students the chance to study history’s greatest thinkers in tandem with the guiding principles of America’s founders and inspirational leaders. Reflecting on the election, Judge Michael Warren of the Oakland Circuit Court in Michigan sympathizes with those who lost and congratulates those who won their respective races. He urges voters to hold all elected officials accountable to the promises they made during the election season. On the 400th anniversary of the signing of the Mayflower Compact, Joseph Loconte discusses the foundations of American self-government that were laid down in the fall of 1620. Cataloguing the many trials the Pilgrims faced as they made their way across the Atlantic, he argues that they were fleeing a Leviathan state for the promise of creating a government that respected religious practice and was framed by laws made through the consent of the governed. Robert Curry explains why the Declaration of Independence says “we hold these truths to be self-evident” instead of making the more general argument that the principles were true simply. He argues that the Founders were declaring to all humankind that the political inequality imposed by monarchy and other forms of government was antithetical to the natural right all human beings have to choose those who rule over them.
