NOTR - Jesuits & The U.S. Government - 8.3.16

Today's Show: JESUITS & THE U.S. GOVERNMENT

Chris discusses some of the history of the Jesuit Order and the current influence of their Alumni in the government of the United States.  According to the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities (AJCU) website, there are currently 49 Jesuit Alumni serving in the United States Congress.  How might this impact the upcoming election, now that Hillary Clinton has chosen a Jesuit educated VP candidate?  In the 19th century, historian J.A. Wylie warned of the influence of this society in Great Britain, and set down lessons that may prove valuable to understanding our nation's condition today.
