Nick Gillespie on Stossel Tonite, Talking Fair-Weather Federalism!

I'm happy to announce that I'll be appearing on John Stossel's eponymous Fox Business show tonight.

It airs from 9 p.m. to 10 p.m. Eastern Time and looks at the continuing relevance (or not) of the Constitution.

Other guests include The Blaze's Glenn Beck, Project Veritas' James O'Keefe, and the Pacific Legal Foundation's Timothy Sandefur.

I'm talking about the long and storied tradition of "fair-weather federalism." Who would have guessed that politicians' attitudes toward a strong central government or devolving power to the states change depending on which arrangement helps them out on any given issue?

There's lots of interesting talk about the Bill of Rights, especially the First Amendment which Stossel notes "made my career possible. It allowed me to expose crooks and cheaters. Once, I had a female producer take my urine to two abortion clinics who said I was pregnant!"

More details here.
