U.S. Two States Away from Constitutional Convention

APC is now offering you a quick and easy way to multiply your efforts and help win more battles! Simply click http://www.referralblast.com/rblast.asp?sid=7137 to send this APC Action Alert to up to TEN of your friends! It’s fast, it’s easy, and most of all, it’s extremely effective in KILLING LEFTIST POLICIES!

This is the most urgent, most important action alert the American Policy Center has ever issued! The Ohio state legislature is expected to vote today, Wednesday, Dec. 10th, to call for a Constitutional Convention (Con Con). If Ohio calls for a Con Con only one more state need do so and Congress will have no choice but to convene a Convention, throwing our U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights up for grabs. Ohio's vote today poses a grave threat to the U.S. Constitution. Please immediately call the Ohio lawmakers listed below. ACT FAST - time is of the essence!

I apologize! This malignancy most foul remained undetected by our radar until a good friend brought it to our attention yesterday. The hour is late, but WE MUST TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION!

It does not matter where you live. Ohio's vote today endangers everyone in every state in the Union, so we must pressure Ohio lawmakers to discard this disastrous legislative effort.

Thirty-two (32) other states have already called for a Con Con (allegedly to add a Balanced Budget Amendment to the Constitution). 34 states are all that is required, and then Congress MUST convene a Convention.

The U.S. Constitution places no restriction on the purposes for which the states can call for a Convention. If Ohio votes to call a Con Con, for whatever purpose, the United States will be only one state away from total destruction. And it's a safe bet that those who hate this nation, and all She stands for, are waiting to pounce upon this opportunity to re-write our Constitution. We dare slumber no longer; we must take immediate action to preserve this nation!

Certainly all loyal Americans want government constrained by a balanced budget. But calling a Con Con risks a revolutionary change in our form of government. The ultimate outcome will likely be a new constitution; one that would possibly eliminate the Article 1 restriction to the coinage of real money or even eliminate gun or property rights. So what may look like a good idea to the legislators driving this effort - all Republicans - will certainly make them prey to the law of unintended consequences - at the very least insuring the U.S. will never have a balanced budget - while destroying what vestiges of liberty the government still allows.

You may have heard that some of those 32 states have voted to rescind their calls. This is true. However, under Article V of the Constitution, Congress must call a Constitutional Convention whenever 2/3 (or 34) of the states apply. The Constitution makes no provision for rescission. We've been told advocates of the convention are waiting to capture just two more states - Ohio, and one other. They can then challenge the other states' rescissions in the courts while going ahead with the Convention. Congress alone then decides whether state legislatures or state conventions ratify proposed amendments.

You may have heard the states can control the subject of any convention. In truth no restrictive language from any state can legally limit the scope or outcome of a Convention! Once a Convention is called Congress determines how the delegates to the Convention are chosen. Once chosen, those Convention delegates possess more power than the U.S. Congress itself; if it were not so they would not be able to change the U.S. Constitution!

We have not had a Constitutional Convention since 1787. That Convention was called to make small changes in the Articles of Confederation. As a point of fact, several states first passed resolutions requiring their delegates discuss amendments to the Articles ONLY, forbidding even discussion of foundational changes. However, following the delegates' first agreement that their meetings be in secret, their second act was to agree to debate those state restrictions and to declare the Articles of Confederation NULL AND VOID! They also changed the ratification process, reducing the required states' approval from 100% to 75%. There is no reason to believe a contemporary Con Con wouldn't further "modify" Article V restrictions to suit its purpose.

As former Chief Justice Warren Burger said in a letter written to Phyllis Schlafly, President of Eagle Forum:
"...there is no effective way to limit or muzzle the actions of a Constitutional Convention. The convention could make its own rules and set its own agenda. Congress might try to limit the convention to one amendment or to one issue, but there is no way to assure that the convention would obey. After a convention is convened, it will be too late to stop the convention if we don't like its agenda. The meeting in 1787 ignored the limit placed by the confederation Congress..." (emphasis mine)

We were blessed in 1787; the Con Con delegates were the leaders of a freedom movement that had just cleansed this land of tyranny.

Today's corrupt politicians and judges would like nothing better than the ability to legally ignore the Constitution - to modify its "problematic" provisions to reflect the philosophical and socials mores of our contemporary society.

The majority of U.S. voters just elected a dedicated leftist as President. Republicans are at their weakest right now! This is a horrible time to try such a crazy scheme. We cannot control the debate right now! Don't for one second doubt that delegates to a Con Con wouldn't revise the 1st Amendment into a government-controlled privilege, replace the 2nd Amendment with a "collective" right to self-defense, and abolish the 4th, 5th, and 10th Amendments, and the rest of the Bill of Rights. Additions could include the non-existent Separation of Church and State, the "right" to abortion and euthanasia, and much, much more.

Our uniquely and purely American concept of individual rights, endowed by our Creator, would be quickly set aside as an anachronistic relic of a bygone era; replaced by new "collective" rights, awarded and enforced by government for the "common good".

The problems our nation faces are not a result of deficiencies in our Constitution; rather, they are the direct result of our disregard for that divinely-inspired document of liberty.

There is no challenge faced by this nation that cannot be solved either by enforcing existing law, or in limited cases, by writing new law. We do not need, AND MUST NOT RISK THE LIBERTY OF THE UNITED STATES with, a Constitutional Convention!

Ohio must not vote for a Con Con! We cannot control the debate! And state #34 is likely sitting silently in the wings, ready to act with lightning speed, sealing the fate of our once great nation before we can prevent it.

Stop the Ohio bill and we can stop the Constitutional Convention.

ACTION TO TAKE

We need only stop the House bill, HJR8, sponsored by Representative Louis Blessing, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee (there is a Senate bill too).

1. Call Chairman Blessing's office and tell his staff you oppose a Constitutional Convention and you want this process stopped.

Tell them this is the most dangerous time ever to call for such a convention.

Tell them no one can control the debate or outcome of a Con Con.

Representative Louis Blessing
Phone: (614) 466-9091
Fax: (614) 719-3583
Email: district29@ohr.state.oh.us

2. Call Representative Bill Batchelder. He is a very good man. I've known him for years. But he has been misled on this issue. The word is he is wavering. Your calls can convince him to withdraw his support. That can kill this bill.

Representative Bill Batchelder
Phone: (614) 466-8140

3. It is URGENT that you make your calls right now. The bill could be voted on as early as this afternoon (Wednesday).

I'm so sorry for this late notice. We just found out about this last night.

Please get this message out far and wide. This task requires our very best effort! E-mail and call your friends, family and neighbors. Network anywhere and everywhere possible. If you know someone who never takes action, encourage them to break that habit this one time. Our Constitution is under assault!

"Declaration of Restoration to a candid World"

The Sovereign Citizens Handbook.

 

The United States of America, Protestant Christian Males, Sovereign Citizenship, Inheritance

And Intellectual Legacy has been intentionally Obscured and Subverted. Constituting The

Greatest Intellectual Crime against Humanity, in the History the World.

The United States of America, Protestant Christian Males, have demonstrated Informal, positive moral, ethical and intellectual, Abstract Reasoning Literate conduct principles, endeavoring to conserve the original intent, of the rightist, positive liberal individual right, written constitutional, democratic representative, Republic form of civil government. That our intellectual founding father, the British Philosopher John Locke instructed in the second treaties of civil government, that our political founding fathers plagiarized, and our states ratified. And in the 20th century to become the most profound and successful, social contract, empirical experiment in Sovereign Citizenship in the history of the world. Only to be reduced from 100% to 50% by the demonstrated invalid cause’s of woman’s suffrage, and another 20% by universal suffrage, to 30% of the total political electorate. Subversively! Rendering them not only unconstitutionally, but anti-constitutionally, completely, electorally disenfranchised and subordinated by a majority of illegitimate Subject not Sovereign Citizens, historically demonstrated to be formal and informal, moral, ethical and intellectual abstract reasoning illiterates, that are lead by a coalition of Anti-Protestant Christian Subversives, who demonstrate formal, negative, moral, ethical and intellectual, abstract reasoning literacy, by geometrically inverting the perception of the actual empirically demonstrated reality, with perfectly reversed ideological principles., with this diabolically ingenious system of formal Revisionism, leftist, negative, neo-liberals have gradually, incrementally, implemented, Evolutionary Socialism or democratic Scientific Socialism therein converting our Republic into a pure democracy a repeatedly historically demonstrated failed form of civil government, The Negative New Deal or Negative One World Order – Universal Communism. Note the British Government implemented black slavery in the British American Colonies.

Quod si nihil cu potentiore juris humani relinquitur inopi, at ego ad Deos vindices humanae superbiae confugiam; et precabor ut iras
Suas vertant in eos, quibus non suae res, non alienae satis sint quorum Saevitiam non mors noxiorum exatiet; placari nequeant, nisi
hauriendum sanguinem laniandaque viscera nostra praebuerimus. Liv. Lib. Ix. c. i.

‘ But if, in dealing with the mighty, the weak are left no human rights, yet will I seek protection in the gods, who visit retribution on human pride. And I will beseech them that they turn their anger against those who are not content with their own, or with that of others, who will not be sated with the death of the guilty. They are not to be placated unless we yield to them our blood to drink and our entrails to tear out.”

Declaration of Restoration

When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the empirical laws of nature and natures god entitle them, a descent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation, we hold these truths to be empirically demonstrated to be self evident, that all men are created biologically equal at birth, possessing the human mental faculty potential of abstract reasoning literacy, but are moral, ethical and intellectual abstract reasoning illiterate, or “Tabla Rasa (blank slate, white paper), an modern analogy being that our biological super computers require programming. The male parent in a majority Protestant Christian society assumes the Responsibility and is ultimately morally obligated for the moral, ethical and basic intellectual abstract reasoning literacy programming of his children, using shame as a conditioned reflex method to achieve a positive moral, ethical behavior with moderate corporal punishment if necessary for obstinacy, to establish parental ultimate authority! A since, of individual, personal, self-government, family government and of civil government. Self-reliance, and independence with honor and dignity with a reciprocal social contract with his fellow sovereign citizens, for humans without this programming are more dangerous than lions and tigers. That have no human mental faculty potential of abstract reasoning literacy and remain in a state of nature, Humans retain their executive right by the law of nature, to judge and use capital punishment on all in nature. Humans without positive moral, ethical abstract reasoning literate programming are not developed with a conditioned reflex of positive conscience that all men have the biological human potential to acquire, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, property and the pursuit of happiness, that to secure these rights governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the formal or informal positive moral, ethical and basic intellectual abstract reasoning literate governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of theses ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and re-institute the original government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form as articulated by the United States original intent intellectual founding father the British Philosopher John Locke 1635 – 1704, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. This chain of fundamental social contract elements or empirical self-evident propositions (1) The Law of Nature is the Law of Reason – Analogical Inference – Thesis, Antithesis. (2) The Majority Religion was the Protestant Christian; God Has limited human laws and liberal human rights. (3) These laws and rights are converted from religious to a secular artifice. Of a natures god with natures god limited human laws and liberal human rights. (4) Then secular limited civil laws and liberal civil rights. Neither of the secular god laws and rights or secular civil laws and rights can contradict the religious laws and rights. Doing so would constitute just grounds for violent revolution. As not only a right but also an obligation.

The All-inclusive: Immigration and Naturalization. Sworn under Oath, Upon a King James Version of the Holy Bible. In America at the founding the Majority Religion was Protestant Christian, if you were not a Protestant Christian, but did agree to obey the King James Version of the Holy Bibles God limited human laws, with his liberal human rights. You would be endowed by this Creator with certain unalienable rights! But if you do not agree to obey these limited human laws with liberal human rights, you are not endowed by this Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. In addition to the social contract reciprocal obligation between sovereign citizens and the fiduciary trust established in government and public servants.

Prudence indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes, and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right them selves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed, but when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute evolutionary communist socialism despotism, it is their right, it is their duty to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these United States, and such is now the necessity which constraints them to alter their corrupted system of government, the history of the present government institutions is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having indirect object of the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these United States, to prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world.
 

Note: In light of the World Intellectual System of Empirical Analysis - empirical self evident propositions, which our system of Republic form of civil government were constructed, was covertly exchanged for a inverted empirical analysis conclusion, delivered with Classic Rationalism argumentation. A Complete Review of all Amendments are now essential!

 

U.S. Constitution: Article V

AMENDMENT OF THE CONSTITUTION

Scope of the Amending Power

When this Article was before the Constitutional Convention, a motion to insert a provision that ''no State shall without its consent be affected in its internal policy'' was made and rejected. 1 A further attempt to impose a substantive limitation on the amending power was made in 1861, when Congress submitted to the States a proposal to bar any future amendments which would authorize Congress to ''interfere, within any State, with the domestic institutions thereof . . . .'' 2 Three States ratified this article before the outbreak of the Civil War made it academic. 3 Members of Congress opposed passage by Congress of the Thirteenth Amendment on the basis that the amending process could not be utilized to work such a major change in the internal affairs of the States but the protest was in vain. 4 Many years later the validity of both the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Amendments was challenged because of their content. The arguments against the former took a wide range. Counsel urged that the power of amendment is limited to the correction of errors in the framing of the Constitution and that it does not comprehend the adoption of additional or supplementary provisions. They contended further that ordinary legislation cannot be embodied in a constitutional amendment and that Congress cannot constitutionally propose any amendment which involves the exercise or relinquishment of the sovereign powers of a State. 5 The Nineteenth Amendment was attacked on the narrower ground that a State which had not ratified the amendment would be deprived of its equal suffrage in the Senate because its representatives in that body would be persons not of its choosing, i.e., persons chosen by voters whom the State itself had not authorized to vote for Senators. 6 Brushing aside these arguments as unworthy of serious attention, the Supreme Court held both amendments valid.

Footnotes

The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as Part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses in the Ninth Section of the first Article; and that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate.

Tenth Amendment - Reserved Powers

Amendment Text | Annotations

U.S. Constitution: Tenth Amendment

RESERVED POWERS

Scope and Purpose

''The Tenth Amendment was intended to confirm the understanding of the people at the time the Constitution was adopted, that powers not granted to the United States were reserved to the States or to the people. It added nothing to the instrument as originally ratified.'' 1 ''The amendment states but a truism that all is retained which has not been surrendered. There is nothing in the history of its adoption to suggest that it was more than declaratory of the relationship between the national and state governments as it had been established by the Constitution before the amendment or that its purpose was other than to allay fears that the new national government might seek to exercise powers not granted, and that the states might not be able to exercise fully their reserved powers.'' 2 That this provision was not conceived to be a yardstick for measuring the powers granted to the Federal Government or reserved to the States was firmly settled by the refusal of both Houses of Congress to insert the word ''expressly'' before the word ''delegated,'' 3 and was confirmed by Madison's remarks in the course of the debate which took place while the proposed amendment was pending concerning Hamilton's plan to establish a national bank. ''Interference with the power of the States was no constitutional criterion of the power of Congress. If the power was not given, Congress could not exercise it; if given, they might exercise it, although it should interfere with the laws, or even the Constitutions of the States.'' 4 Nevertheless, for approximately a century, from the death of Marshall until 1937, the Tenth Amendment was frequently invoked to curtail powers expressly granted to Congress, notably the powers to regulate commerce, to enforce the Fourteenth Amendment, and to lay and collect taxes.

In McCulloch v. Maryland, 5 Marshall rejected the proffer of a Tenth Amendment objection and offered instead an expansive interpretation of the necessary and proper clause 6 to counter the argument. The counsel for the State of Maryland cited fears of opponents of ratification of the Constitution about the possible swallowing up of states' rights and referred to the Tenth Amendment to allay these apprehensions, all in support of his claim that the power to create corporations was reserved by that Amendment to the States. 7 Stressing the fact that the Amendment, unlike the cognate section of the Articles of Confederation, omitted the word ''expressly'' as a qualification of granted powers, Marshall declared that its effect was to leave the question ''whether the particular power which may become the subject of contest has been delegated to the one government, or prohibited to the other, to depend upon a fair construction of the whole instrument.'' 8

 

U.S. Constitution: Thirteenth Amendment

ABOLITION OF SLAVERY

Origin and Purpose

In 1863, President Lincoln issued an Emancipation Proclamation 1 declaring, based on his war powers, that within named States and parts of States in rebellion against the United States ''all persons held as slaves within said designated States, and parts of States, are, and henceforward shall be free; . . .'' The Proclamation did not allude to slaves held in the loyalist States, and moreover, there were questions about the Proclamation's validity. Not only was there doubt concerning the President's power to issue his order at all, but also there was a general conviction that its effect would not last beyond the restoration of the seceded States to the Union. 2 Because the power of Congress was similarly deemed not to run to legislative extirpation of the ''peculiar institution,'' 3 a constitutional amendment was then sought; after first failing to muster a two-thirds vote in the House of Representatives, the amendment was forwarded to the States on February 1, 1865, and ratified by the following December 18. 4

In selecting the text of the Amendment, Congress ''reproduced the historic words of the ordinance of 1787 for the government of the Northwest Territory, and gave them unrestricted application within the United States.'' 5 By its adoption, Congress intended, said Senator Trumbull, one of its sponsors, to ''take this question [of emancipation] entirely away from the politics of the country. We relieve Congress of sectional strifes. . . .'' 6 An early Supreme Court decision, rejecting a contention that the Amendment reached servitudes on property as it did on persons, observed in dicta that the ''word servitude is of larger meaning than slavery, . . . and the obvious purpose was to forbid all shades and conditions of African slavery.'' But while the Court was initially in doubt whether persons other than African Americans could share in the protection afforded by the Amendment, it did continue to say that although ''[N]egro slavery alone was in the mind of the Congress which proposed the thirteenth article, it forbids any other kind of slavery, now or hereafter. If Mexican peonage or the Chinese coolie labor system shall develop slavery of the Mexican or Chinese race within our territory, this amendment may safely be trusted to make it void.'' 7

''This Amendment . . . is undoubtedly self-executing without any ancillary legislation, so far as its terms are applicable to any existing state of circumstances. By its own unaided force and effect it abolished slavery, and established universal freedom.'' 8 These words of the Court in 1883 have generally been noncontroversial and have evoked little disagreement in the intervening years. The ''force and effect'' of the Amendment itself has been invoked only a few times by the Court to strike down state legislation which it considered to have reintroduced servitude of persons 9 and it has not used Sec. 1 of the Amendment against private parties. 10 A major change, however, has recently been wrought with regard to the scope of congressional power under Sec. 2 to enforce Sec. 1 of the Amendment.

Certain early cases suggested broad congressional powers, 11 but the Civil Rights Cases 12 of 1883 began a process, culminating in Hodges v. United States, 13 which substantially curtailed these powers. In the former decision, the Court held unconstitutional an 1875 law 14 guaranteeing equality of access to public accommodations. Referring to the Thirteenth Amendment, the Court conceded that ''legislation may be necessary and proper to meet all the various cases and circumstances to be affected by it, and to prescribe proper modes of redress for its violation in letter or spirit. And such legislation may be primary and direct in its character; for the amendment is not a mere prohibition of State laws establishing or upholding slavery, but an absolute declaration that slavery or involuntary servitude shall not exist in any part of the United States.'' Appropriate legislation under the Amendment, the Court continued, could go beyond nullifying state laws establishing or upholding slavery, because the Amendment ''has a reflex character also, establishing and decreeing universal civil and political freedom throughout the United States'' and thus Congress was empowered ''to pass all laws necessary and proper for abolishing all badges and incidents of slavery in the United States.'' 15 But these badges and incidents as perceived by the Court were those which Congress had in its 1866 legislation 16 sought ''to secure to all citizens of every race and color, and without regard to previous servitude, those fundamental rights which are the essence of civil freedom, namely the same right to make and enforce contracts, to sue, be parties, give evidence, and to inherit, purchase, lease, sell and convey property, as is enjoyed by white citizens.'' 17 But the Court could not see that the refusal of accommodations at an inn or a place of public amusement, without any sanction or support from any state law, could inflict upon such person any manner of servitude or form of slavery, as those terms were commonly understood. ''It would be running the slavery argument into the ground to make it apply to every act of discrimination which a person may see fit to make. . . .'' 18

Then in Hodges v. United States, 19 the Court set aside the convictions of three men for conspiring to drive several African Americans from their employment in a lumber mill. The Thirteenth Amendment operated to abolish, and to authorize Congress to legislate to enforce abolition of, conditions of enforced compulsory service of one to another and no attempt to analogize a private impairment of freedom to a disability of slavery would suffice to give the Federal Government jurisdiction over what was constitutionally a matter of state remedial law.

The latter case was overruled by the Court in a far-reaching decision in which it concluded that the 1866 congressional enactment, 20 far from simply conveying on all persons the capacity to buy and sell property, also prohibited private denials of the right through refusals to deal 21 and that this statute was fully supportable by the Thirteenth Amendment. ''Surely Congress has the power under the Thirteenth Amendment rationally to determine what are the badges and the incidents of slavery, and the authority to translate that determination into effective legislation. Nor can we say that the determination Congress has made is an irrational one. . . . Just as the Black Codes, enacted after the Civil War to restrict the free exercise of those rights, were substitutes for the slave system, so the exclusion of Negroes from white communities became a substitute for the Black Codes. And when racial discrimination herds men into ghettos and makes their ability to buy property turn on the color of their skin, then it too is a relic of slavery. . . . At the very least, the freedom that Congress is empowered to secure under the Thirteenth Amendment includes the freedom to buy whatever a white man can buy, the right to live wherever a white man can live. If Congress cannot say that being a free man means at least this much, then the Thirteenth Amendment made a promise the Nation cannot keep.'' 22 The Amendment, then, could provide the constitutional support for the various congressional en actments against private racial discrimination which Congress had previously based on the commerce clause; 23 because the 1866 Act contains none of the limitations written into the modern laws it has a vastly extensive application. 24 Whether the Court will yet carry its interpretation of the statute to the fullest extent possible is, of course, not now knowable.

U.S. Constitution: Fifteenth Amendment

Fifteenth Amendment - Right of Citizens to Vote

Amendment Text | Annotations

Section. 1. The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.

Section. 2. The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

 

U.S. Constitution: Fifteenth Amendment

ABOLITION OF SUFFRAGE QUALIFICATIONS ON BASIS OF RACE

Adoption and Judicial Enforcement

Adoption .--The final decision of Congress not to include anything relating to the right to vote in the Fourteenth Amendment, aside from the provisions of Sec. 2, 1 left the issue of African American suffrage solely with the States, and Northern States were generally as loath as Southern to grant the ballot to African Americans, both the newly-freed and those who had never been slaves. 2 But in the second session of the 39th Congress, the right to vote was extended to African Americans by statute in the District of Columbia and the territories, and the seceded States as a condition of readmission had to guarantee African American suffrage. 3 Following the election of President Grant, the ''lame duck'' third session of the Fortieth Congress sent the proposed Fifteenth Amendment to the States for ratification. The struggle was intense because Congress was divided into roughly three factions: those who opposed any federal constitutional guarantee of African American suffrage, those who wanted to go beyond a limited guarantee and enact universal male suffrage, including abolition of all educational and property-holding tests, and those who wanted or who were willing to settle for an amendment merely proscribing racial qualifications in deter mining who could vote under any other standards the States wished to have. 4 The later group ultimately prevailed.

The Judicial View of the Amendment .--In its initial appraisals of this Amendment, the Supreme Court appeared disposed to emphasize only its purely negative aspects. ''The Fifteenth Amendment,'' it announced, did ''not confer the right . . . [to vote] upon any one,'' but merely ''invested the citizens of the United States with a new constitutional right which is . . . exemption from discrimination in the exercise of the elective franchise on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.'' 5 But in subsequent cases, the Court, conceding ''that this article'' has originally been construed as giving ''no affirmative right to the colored man to vote'' and as having been ''designed primarily to prevent discrimination against him,'' professed to be able ''to see that under some circumstances it may operate as the immediate source of a right to vote. In all cases where the former slave-holding States had not removed from their Constitutions the words 'white man' as a qualification for voting, this provision did, in effect, confer on him the right to vote, because . . . it annulled the discriminating word white, and this left him in the enjoyment of the same right as white persons. And such would be the effect of any future constitutional provision of a State which would give the right of voting exclusively to white people. . . .'' 6

Grandfather Clauses .--Until quite recently, the history of the Fifteenth Amendment has been largely a record of belated judicial condemnation of various state efforts to disenfranchise African Americans either overtly through statutory enactment or covertly through inequitable administration of electoral laws and toleration of discriminatory membership practices of political parties. Of several devices which have been voided, one of the first to be held unconstitutional was the ''grandfather clause.'' Beginning in 1895, several States enacted temporary laws whereby persons who had been voters, or descendants of those who had been voters, on January 1, 1867, could be registered notwithstanding their inability to meet any literacy requirement. Unable because of the date to avail themselves of the exemption, African Americans were disabled to vote on grounds of illiteracy or through discriminatory administration of literacy tests, while illiterate whites were permited to register without taking any tests. With the achievement of the intended result, most States permitted their laws to lapse, but Oklahoma's grandfather clause had been enacted as a permanent amendment to the state constitution. A unanimous Court condemned the device as recreating and perpetuating ''the very conditions which the [Fifteenth] Amendment was intended to destroy.'' 7

The Court did not experience any difficulty in voiding a subsequent Oklahoma statute of 1916 which provided that all persons, except those who voted in 1914, who were qualified to vote in 1916 but who failed to register between April 30 and May 11, 1916, with some exceptions for sick and absent persons who were given an additional brief period to register, should be perpetually disenfranchised. The Fifteenth Amendment, Justice Frankfurter declared for the Court, nullified ''sophisticated as well as simple-minded modes of discrimination. It hits onerous procedural requirements which effectively handicap exercise of the franchise by the colored race although the abstract right to vote may remain unrestricted as to race.'' 8 The impermissible effect of the statute, said the Court, was automatically to continue as permanent voters, without their being obliged to register again, all white persons who were on registration lists in 1914 by virtue of the previously invalidated grandfather clause, whereas African Americans, prevented from registering by that clause, had been afforded only a 20-day registration opportunity to avoid permanent disenfranchisement.

The White Primary .--Indecision was displayed by the Court, however, when it was called upon to deal with the exclusion of African Americans from participation in primary elections. 9 Prior to its becoming convinced that primary contests were in fact elections to which federal constitutional guarantees applied, 10 the Court had relied upon the equal protection clause to strike down the Texas White Primary Law 11 and a subsequent Texas statute which contributed to a like exclusion by limiting voting in primary elections to members of state political parties as determined by the central committees thereof. 12 When exclusion of African Americans was thereafter perpetuated by political parties not acting in obedience to any statutory command, this discrimination was for a time viewed as not constituting state action and therefore as not prohibited by either the Fourteenth or the Fifteenth Amendments. 13 This holding was reversed nine years later when the Court declared that where the selection of candidates for public office is entrusted by statute to political parties, a political party in making its selection at a primary election is a state agency, and hence it may not under the Fifteenth Amendment exclude African Americans from such elections. 14 An effort by South Carolina to escape the effects of this ruling by repealing all statutory provisions regulating primary elections and political organizations conducting them was nullified by a lower federal court with no doctrinal difficulty, 15 but the Supreme Court, although nearly unanimous on the result, was unable to come to a majority agreement with regard to the exclusion of African Americans by the Jaybird Association, a county-wide organization which, independently of state laws and the use of state election machinery or funds, nearly monopolized access to Democratic nomination for local offices. The exclusionary policy was held unconstitutional but there was no opinion of the Court. 16

Literacy Tests .--At an early date the Court held that literacy tests which are drafted so as to apply alike to all applicants for the voting franchise would be deemed to be fair on their face and in the absence of proof of discriminatory enforcement could not be said to deny equal protection. 17 But an Alabama constitutional amendment the legislative history of which disclosed that both its object and its intended administration were to disenfranchise African Americans was condemned as violative of the Fifteenth Amendment. 18

Racial Gerrymandering .--The Court's series of decisions interpreting the equal protection clause as requiring the apportionment and districting of state legislatures solely on a population basis 19 had its beginning in Gomillion v. Lightfoot, 20 in which the Court found a Fifteenth Amendment violation in the redrawing of a municipal boundary line into a 28-sided figure which excluded from the city all but four or five of 400 African Americans but no whites, and which thereby continued white domination of municipal elections. Subsequent decisions, particularly concerning the validity of multi-member districting and alleged dilution of minority voting power, were decided under the equal protection clause, 21 and in City of Mobile v. Bolden, 22 in the course of a considerably divided decision with respect to the requirement of discriminatory motivation in Fifteenth Amendment cases, 23 a plurality of the Court sought to restrict the Fifteenth Amendment to cases in which there is official denial or abridgment of the right to register and vote, and to exclude indirect dilution claims. 24 Congressional amendment of Sec. 2 of the Voting Rights Act may obviate the further development of constitutional jurisprudence in this area, however. 25

U.S. Constitution: Sixteenth Amendment

Sixteenth Amendment - Income Tax

Amendment Text | Annotations

The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.

U.S. Constitution: Sixteenth Amendment

INCOME TAX

History and Purpose of the Amendment

The ratification of this Amendment was the direct consequence of the Court's decision in 1895 in Pollock v. Farmers' Loan & Trust Co., 1 whereby the attempt of Congress the previous year to tax incomes uniformly throughout the United States 2 was held by a divided court to be unconstitutional. A tax on incomes derived from property, 3 the Court declared, was a ''direct tax'' which Congress under the terms of Article I, Sec. 2, and Sec. 9, could impose only by the rule of apportionment according to population, although scarcely fifteen years prior the Justices had unanimously sustained 4 the collection of a similar tax during the Civil War, 5 the only other occasion preceding the Sixteenth Amendment in which Congress had ventured to utilize this method of raising revenue. 6

During the interim between the Pollock decision in 1895 and the ratification of the Sixteenth Amendment in 1913, the Court gave evidence of a greater awareness of the dangerous consequences to national solvency which that holding threatened, and partially circumvented the threat, either by taking refuge in redefinitions of ''direct tax'' or, and more especially, by emphasizing, virtually to the exclusion of the former, the history of excise taxation. Thus, in a series of cases, notably Nicol v. Ames, 7 Knowlton v. Moore, 8 and Patton v. Brady, 9 the Court held the following taxes to have been levied merely upon one of the ''incidents of ownership'' and hence to be excises: a tax which involved affixing revenue stamps to memoranda evidencing the sale of merchandise on commodity exchanges, an inheritance tax, and a war revenue tax upon tobacco on which the hitherto imposed excise tax had already been paid and which was held by the manufacturer for resale.

Because of such endeavors the Court thus found it possible to sustain a corporate income tax as an excise ''measured by income'' on the privilege of doing business in corporate form. 10 The adoption of the Sixteenth Amendment, however, put an end to speculation whether the Court, unaided by constitutional amendment, would persist along these lines of construction until it had reversed its holding in the Pollock case. Indeed, in its initial appraisal 11 of the Amendment it classified income taxes as being inherently ''indirect.'' ''[T]he command of the amendment that all income taxes shall not be subject to apportionment by a consideration of the sources from which the taxed income may be derived, forbids the application to such taxes of the rule applied in the Pollock case by which alone such taxes were removed from the great class of excises, duties, and imports subject to the rule of uniformity and were placed under the other or direct class.'' 12 ''[T]he Sixteenth Amendment conferred no new power of taxation but simply prohibited the previous complete and plenary power of income taxation possessed by Congress from the beginning from being taken out of the category of indirect taxation to which it inherently belonged.'' 13

Nineteenth Amendment - Women's Suffrage Rights

Section 1. The right of the citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.

Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

Women's Suffrage

The Amendment was adopted after a long campaign by its advocates who had largely despaired of attaining their goal through modification of individual state laws. Agitation in behalf of women's suffrage was recorded as early as the Jackson Administration but the initial results were meager. Beginning in 1838, Kentucky authorized women to vote in school elections and its action was later copied by a number of other States. Kansas in 1887 granted women unlimited rights to vote in municipal elections. Not until 1869, however, when the Wyoming Territory accorded women suffrage rights on an equal basis with men and continued the practice following admission to statehood, did these advocates register a notable victory. Progress continued to be discouraging, only ten additional States having joined Wyoming by 1914, and, judicial efforts having failed,1 and a vigorous campaign brought congressional passage of a proposed Amendment and the necessary state ratifications.2

Following the Supreme Court's interpretation of the Fifteenth Amendment, the state courts which passed on the effect of the Amendment ruled that it did not confer upon women the right to vote but only the right not to be discriminated against on the basis of their sex in the setting of voting qualifications,3 a formalistic distinction to be sure but one which has restrained the possible applications of the Amendment. In only one case has the Supreme Court itself dealt with the Amendment's effect, holding that a Georgia poll tax statute which exempted from payment women who did not register to vote did not discriminate in any manner against the right of men to vote, although it did note that the Amendment ''applies to men and women alike and by its own force supersedes inconsistent measures, whether federal or State.''4

Amendment Text | Annotations

Section 1. The right of citizens of the United States, who are eighteen years of age or older, to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of age.

Section 2. The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

The Eighteen-Year-Old Vote

In extending the Voting Rights Act of 1965 in 1970 1 Congress included a provision lowering the age qualification to vote in all elections, federal, state, and local, to 18. 2 In a divided decision, the Supreme Court held that Congress was empowered to lower the age qualification in federal elections, but voided the application of the provision in all other elections as beyond congressional power. 3 Confronted thus with the possibility that they might have to maintain two sets of registration books and go to the expense of running separate election systems for federal elections and for all other elections, the States were receptive to the proposing of an Amendment by Congress to establish a minimum age qualification at 18 for all elections, and ratified it promptly. 4

America Restore our Republic!

Dear. Sovereign’s Citizen's

SUBJECT: THE ENIGMA: OF THE “MISSING LINK” OF THE EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE OF THE PROTESTANT CHRISTIAN INTELLECTUAL ORIGINS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. THE MORAL MAJORITY WAS RIGHT!

Not once! have I seen a true defense of George W. Bush’s Excellent reaction to a sneak attack by international terrorist and his Excellent state of war 8 year term. I have watched a “complete perception control” with the unrelenting democratic party attack for 18 months, with the negative inverted perception that John McCain would be another term of the Bush ‘s failed economic & foreign policy?

Now the Bush administration had no choice but to sponsor the economic crisis bailout! For the economic crisis that the democratic party intentionally created! And now they claim that the republican party are the socialist? Don’t we get it yet???

He that controls the perception, controls the public opinion, which controls the political vote, which controls the political reality!

For a Complete Empirical Analysis of the Demonstrated Intellectual Origins of the Ominous Specter of Evolutionary Socialism by Democratic Scientific systematic implementation, It’s Structural Design and Functioning Mechanics. contact me!
Judson Rainey with the Rainey Group - Diversified Research Development at Email at: raineygroup@yahoo.com

What the true chain of events are, concerning the Reagan republican trickle down economics, was that it achieved the most successful sustained economic growth in modern history, in part responsible by the peace dividend by ending the cold war. until bill Clinton and the mass media inverted the perception of the small recession at the time of the election, calling it a depression and used the “read my lips” comment that George Bush sr. used earlier and by being tricked into going back on his word, by agreeing to signing onto a democratic parties sponsored tax increase , bill Clinton then after getting elected on his and the mass medias lie about the recession being a depression , the strong economy recovered and continued thru the Clinton administration term with the mass medias help they established the perception that Clinton was responsible for that inherited strong economy. In addition to the CRA forced deregulating of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, interestingly at this time Hillary Clinton made a preemptive attack by stating that she thought resistance to this plan constituted a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy! which I will demonstrate was intentionally designed by the Clinton administration to be abused by the democratic party to negatively effect the free market housing lending system and then when George W. Bush was elected, he inherited a weak economy, and when 9/11 happened a complete state of emergency demanded a total focus on a the new Homeland Security system and a counter attack plan on the terrorist perpetrators and actions were taken immediately in a quick and effective war in Afghanistan and then a quick and effective war in Iraq and then the democratic parties plan of establishing a democracy in these countries, which takes time, if ever that it can be done ! Now the democratic party claims that John McCain who tried to re-regulate Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and who was blocked by the democratic party, and now they say he represents the failed republican foreign and economic policies of the last eight years, and it is the democratic party and their presidential candidate Barack Obama that are demonsratably responsible for the present economic crisis, when they intentionally designed and executed the economic crisis for the political objective as follows..

 

We all now know that Acorn representatives have been convicted of voter fraud and the Justice Department is looking into it. and if the Stanley Kurtz report exposing that even more importantly as Sol Stern explains that Acorn is the key modern successor of the radical 1960’s “New Left” with a “1960’s bred agenda of anti-capitalism “ to match . Acorn , says Stern , grew out of “one of the New Left ‘s silliest and most destructive groups , the National Welfare Rights Organization “. in the 1960’s NWRO launched a campaign of sit-ins and disruptions at welfare office’s.. The goal was to remove eligibility restrictions and thus effectively flood welfare roll’s with so many clients that the system would burst , the theory, explains Stern , was that an impossibly overburdened welfare system would force “a radical reconstruction of America’s “unjust capitalist economy”. which establishes the “ultimate objective intent “with the combined revelation of Barack Obama’s close mutually trusted relationship with Bill Ayers as a unrepentant subversive violent anti-American terrorist who at his own home started Barack Obama’s political career and entrusted him “to control million’s dollars of his grant Woods Fund of which a large amount went to Acorn of which obama was the national leadership trainer of coercive banking tactics and strategy, who instructed the same system as the earlier NWRO Anti-American welfare theory, to create a impossibly overburdened welfare housing that was politically intentionally connected to the capitalist free market housing lending system that would “absolutely force” a “radical reconstruction of Americas “unjust capitalist economy” This would isolate the true cause of the current economical disaster, as Obama ‘s campaign rhetoric blamed bush & wall street and waited for the liberal partisan dominant mass media master spin doctors to achieve the voter inverted perception that he would be the solution to effectively correct the problem, which obviously succeeded as indicated by a voter poll surge blaming the last 8 years of republican administration and wall street for his and his parties own subversively designed economic ultimate objective. Indeed the democratic party is already drafting a ”radically reconstructed Americas “just Socialist economy” ironically we the American people & John McCain “didn’t get it “until now! Because it was clandestine! As a American citizen, I demand a bi-partisan investigation concerning high treason by economic subversion, for this vast left wing Anti-American conspiracy, that intentionally facilitated crimes against the innocent people of the United States. to implement a democratic scientific socialist economic and ideological coup-d‘etat.. In addition, what else would explain the initial exposure, huge massive enthusiastic welcome by the socialist Europeans? By this humble little community organizer?

The Barack Obama tax plan of giving 95 percent of Americans a 1 or 2 thousand dollars refund constitutes due to the fact, that 40 percent don’t pay tax anyway, and they will receive a check as a Vote to elect me president, Bribe! paid for by the tax payers! In other words have the victims of his vote bribe, the American tax payers! who then must pay for their own defeat! Its incredible that he would have the audacity to add insult to injury to the American tax payer!

KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID! THE CHOICE IS BETWEEN A CAPITALIST or SOCIALIST ECONOMIC SYSTEM.

McCain has a Proven Positive Capitalist Economic System.

Obama has a Proven Negative Socialist Economic System.

 The Indubitable empirically demonstrated self evident truth proposition of this vindication of the Moral Majority leadership who wrote the political platform of peace by strength, the strategic defense initiative or SDI. and trickle down economics. That Ronald Reagan agreed to. To become their Presidential Candidate of the Moral Majority Electorate who specifically elected and re-elected Ronald Reagan President. And the Moral Majority Electorate are empirically demonstrated indubitably truly responsible for ending the Cold War against the Evil Empire the U.S.S.R.

The U.S. Constitution, Article lV, Section 4. States that the original intent was that we are a Written Constitution, liberal Individual right, democratic representative, Republic form of civil government. This is the “absolutely essential” first element in the process of comprehending the significant ’s of how America has been subverted from within! That is , by implanting the inverted mass perception that America’s original intent was a Democratic form of civil government ! That would justify implementing Pure Democratic principles.

The Enigma of the long sought after “Missing Link “of the Empirically Demonstrated Evidence that would indubitably prove the issue, once and for all, for all of human posterity! To restore America’s Real Empirically Demonstrated “Traditional Family Values”!

The Sovereign Citizen’s Handbook - synopsis

The Sovereign Citizens of America are endeavoring to Conserve the “original deal “of our Republic, political philosophy of America’s intellectual founding father, the founder of “all Liberal political philosophy“, and the founder of Empiricism the first to formally expressed empirical analysis or the regular sequence theory of induction, or the Modern Scientific Method. The father of the Age of Enlightenment or The Age of Reason considered” the Intellectual Ruler of the World in the 18th century domestically, the English philosopher John Locke who was plagiarized in our Declaration of Independence and our Written Constitution, by the English American colonist founding fathers. And who was obscured and relegated to a common sense philosopher, by the English radicals & wigs who in 1833 assumed the common name Liberals and abolished slavery in the rest of the English colonies to instigate the American civil war using perfectly inverted empirical propositions delivered with classic Rationalism argumentation proven defective by John Locke himself because the conclusions always follow the premises, without proof or evidence, and he stated that it only provides consistency in argumentation, unfortunately our mortal enemies capitalized on this weakness, Then in 1850 the communist manifesto was published that declared to the world, its threat of world revolutionary domination , but not until evolutionary socialism was tested and proven successful in Germany with the system of democratic scientific socialism that is gradual, incremental implementation by first forming its economical bureaucracy of social security with the same promise of growing with interest funds that are immediately raided to enlarge with more entitlement bureaucracies perpetually funding itself until this symbiosis parasite kills its host victim. in Germany until Adolph Hitler and the violent revolutionary labor party, national socialist or fascist pitted evil vs. evil against each other. and then in America Franklin D. Roosevelt directed implementation by Norman Thomas who led the socialist party U.S. from 1924 to 1968 and much of its economic program became law under the New Deal legislation. Then Truman, Kennedy, Johnson, Carter, and Clinton all continued contributing implementation until the present coup-d‘etat.. Unfortunately a state of the art evolved propaganda and political rhetoric instantaneous revisionism psychological warfare system has as it was intended, to overwhelmingly demonstrate that resistance is futile. It certainty is, if allowed to continue.!

America’s Unelected, Evolutionary Socialism, Democratic Scientific Socialist, Implementers of Inverted principle’s - Legislature !

American Civil Liberties Union: the Evolutionary Socialism Facilitators of reversed legislation.

( A.C.L.U. ), national nonprofit and nonpartisan association founded in 1920 by a group of liberals, including the socialist reformer Jane Addams, the writers Helen Keller and James Weldon Johnson, the socialist leaders Eugene V. Debs and Norman Thomas, and the jurist Felix Frankfurter.

By 1969, it had grown to embrace a membership of about 130,000; had 45 state affiliates and over 200 Chapters throughout the U.S.; conducted its business through twenty staff attorneys and one thousand cooperating attorneys; and maintained a national staff in New York City, a legislative office in Washington, and a southern regional office in Atlanta, Ga. Organized to defend the civil liberties of all citizens, it follows a liberal interpretation of U.S. Constitutional law in defense of freedom of speech, press, assembly, and religion. It is active before national, state, and local legislative bodies, in courts of all jurisdictions, and in the preparation of educational materials. Since 1920 it has acted directly or by intervention in almost all cases involving civil liberty in the U.S., including the Sacco and Vanzett, Scopes, and Scottsboro trails, and cases involving freedom of expression in the arts, the rights of Jehovah’s Witnesses, the unconstitutionality of white primaries, and the prosecution of citizens under so called loyalty acts. It also took a leading part in the legal fight that resulted in the abolition by the U.S. Supreme Court of segregation in public schools under the doctrine of equal but separate facilities.

The face value “all men are created equal “self evident truths proposition, is not the empirical self evident proposition that John Locke expressed, which was that all men are born, good, independent, and equal, but regarded the mind of man at birth as tabla rasa, a blank slate upon which experience imprinted knowledge, a modern analogy would be a mind as a un-programmed biological super computer that processes one thousand trillion bits of information per second , that out performs all the cray computers connected together that can process ten trillion bits of information per second. All humans must be educated, programmed, indoctrinated in positive morals & ethics and intellectual abstract reasoning literacy, because an adult abstract reasoning illiterate is like a lion or tiger that has a mind incapable of learning abstract reasoning literate knowledge, and will kill you to eat you if wants to. But illiterate humans are more dangerous and cunning. Therefore responsible citizens in a 98 percent majority Protestant Christian society Liberal Republic

That accepts the personal responsibility of educating their children at least in informal moral & ethical and intellectual abstract reasoning literate principles of common sense, responsible, independent citizen with a covenant with God and a social contract with each other. Protestant Christian men accept the responsibility in a marriage as a covenant with God, the highest authority! to love honor & provide for his wife and their children, Also in this republic sufferance didn’t constitute grounds for political enfranchisement.!

That served to disenfranchise literate men, the original majority, by women 50 percent down to 30 percent. by universal. sufferance.

This chain of fundamental social contract elements or empirical self-evident propositions (1) The Law of Nature is the Law of Reason – Analogical Inference – Thesis, Antithesis. (2) The Majority Religion should be High Law in that country and the Protestant Christian; God Has limited human laws and liberal human rights. (3) These laws and rights are converted from religious to a secular artifice. Of a natures god with natures god limited human laws and liberal human rights. (4) Then secular limited civil laws and liberal civil rights. Neither of the secular natures god laws and rights or secular civil laws and rights can contradict the Religious High Laws and rights. Doing so would constitute just grounds for violent revolution. As not only a right but also an obligation.

The All-inclusive: Immigration and Naturalization. Sworn under Oath, Upon a King James Version of the Holy Bible.

In America at the founding the Majority Religion was Protestant Christian, if you were not a Protestant Christian, but did agree to obey the King James Version of the Holy Bibles God limited human laws, with his liberal human rights. You would be endowed by this Creator with certain unalienable rights! But if you do not agree to obey these limited human laws with liberal human rights, you are not endowed by this Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

 

EMPIRICAL ANALOGICAL INFERENCE

Positive
Thesis ::
Informal Moral & Ethical and Intellectual Abstract Reasoning Literate, Common Sense, Responsible ,Independent Productive Citizens.
Lead By:
Informal Moral & Ethical and Intellectual Abstract Reasoning Literate, Common Sense, Responsible ,Independent Productive Citizens.
 
Negative
Antithesis :
Informal Moral & Ethical and Intellectual Abstract Reasoning Illiterate, Irresponsible, Illegitimate, Dependent, Non Productive & Counter Productive Citizens.
Lead By :
Formal Moral & Ethical and Intellectual Abstract Reasoning Literate Diabolically Ingenious leaders with a Antithetical inverted Totalitarian- Authoritarian goal.
Which is the perfectly negative Antithesis of Liberal Republic positive thesis principles. When empirical analogical inference is applied. As demonstrated by the first treatises being the leftist totalitarian-authoritarian. That is a 180 degree transition from the right to the left and the second treatises being the libertarian Radical liberal 180 degree transition from the left to the right ,in the two treaties on civil government, the founding text on liberal political philosophy, which finds its intellectual origins in Locke’s liberal political thought empirical self evident proposition that was discovered by a religious not political proposition “yes you are the original positive liberals” of the Protestant Christian Gods limited human laws leave liberal human rights. This constitutes the only empirically analyzed World Religion that is empirically reasonable.

The most important element in all politics is the metaphor of “he who controls the Perception controls the Reality“ the reason is that he who controls the Perception controls the Public Opinion and he who controls the Public Opinion controls the Elected Political Representation that by government force coercively implements the Political Reality !

Make no mistake that Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, Eduard Berstein , Vladimir Lenin, Nadezhda Konstantinovna Krupskaya, Joseph Stalin All have been extreme students of inverting the principles of John Locke, if you don’t take this exposé serious, you will deserve what you get! First and foremost Karl Marx himself defined Socialism as the transitional state of Communism! To redefine this is not valid. To invade a state whether by Violent Revolution or from within, with Evolutionary Socialism, the people must be indoctrinated to accept Communism! There are those that have inverted the perception of the empirical reality by minimizing Socialism denying that it is the road to Communism, It must be understood that socialist want to be elected and remain in power, to personally succeed , but they don’t want their programs to succeed, as we think of it , to be good for America! they want their programs to promote their ideology and to eventually bankrupt America! so as to save America by reinventing it” by implementing the Socialist Communism.

Our nation was founded on the principles that in any particular country, the religious majority should be god principles that most people obey without government coercion, in America the population was 98 percent protestant Christian and protestant Christian men accept the responsibility & covenant with god to love & protect and provide housing, clothing, food and education for his wife and children by the king James version of the holy bible religious who’s god has limited human laws and that which was left were liberal human rights , a secular artifice of a natures god with identical limited human laws with liberal human rights is created in the event that government declares war on the citizens, in which the citizens not only have the right , but the obligation to withdraw their trust and tear down and replace it with the original form of civil government and from this we derive our limited civil laws with liberal civil rights. this constitutes indubitable demonstrated empirical self evident propositions. LOCKE states that Where there are no Laws, there are no Rights! You Earn your Rights, by Obeying the Laws! If you Reject the Laws, you Reject your Rights!

The intellectual consensus of the world in the 17th century was that “complete or pure democracies always fail“, because the poor illiterate masses always vote themselves the wealth of the state!.

NOTE: We think we can’t be Brain Washed? But observe, even we, are now calling America our DEMOCRACY! After hearing it over and over again for decades! It would appear that the danger of accepting this Revisionism Label, is that it justifies implementing Democratic Scientific Socialism, Which inverts our form of civil government from a Liberal individual right, democratic representative, Republic. Into a liberal government right, pure democratic representative, Democracy! Inverted Progressive! The U.S. Constitution - Article IV, Section 4. states a Republican form of civil government. Or liberal individual right, democratic representative, Republic!

The following Empirical Evidence Demonstrates that the Evolutionary Communist Socialism, that is implemented by Democratic Scientific Socialism. “Constitutes the Greatest Crime Against Humanity” in the history of the World ! The Semantics of Evil if Good.

THE “ENIGMA “IS JOHN LOCKE : AMERICA - POSITIVE THESES inverted to COMMUNISM - NEGATIVE ANTITHESES.

LOCKE, John
(1632-1704), English philosopher, who founded the school of empiricism (q.v.) “a moderate and tolerant protestant Christian“.
Locke was born in the village of Wrington, Somerset, on Aug. 29, 1632. He was educated at the Christ Church College at Oxford and lectured on Greek, rhetoric, and moral philosophy at Oxford from 1661 to 1664. In 1667 Locke began his association with the English statesman Anthony Ashley Cooper, 1st earl of Shaftesbury, to whom Locke was friend, adviser, and physician. Shaftesbury secured for Locke a series of minor government appointments. In 1669, in one of his official capacities, Locke wrote a constitution for the proprietors of the Carolina Colony in North America, but it was never put into effect. In 1675, after the liberal Shaftesbury had fallen from favor, Locke went to France. In 1679 he returned to England, but in view of his opposition to the Roman Catholicism favored by the English monarchy at that time, he soon found it expedient to return to the Continent. From 1683 to 1688 he lived in Holland, and took a critical part in negotiating for the parliament, to have William and Mary’s assent to the Bill of Right, before they could be crowned! following the so-called Glorious Revolution of 1688 and the restoration of Protestantism to favor, Locke returned with the Queen’s party once more to England. The new king, William III, appointed Locke to the Board of Trade in 1696, a position from which he resigned because of ill health in 1700. He died in Oates on Oct. 28, 1704. Approximately 72 years before our Written Declaration of Independence, that our founding fathers plagiarized by using his and only his just grounds for violent revolution !
Empiricism.
Locke's empiricism emphasizes the importance of the experience of the senses in pursuit of knowledge rather than intuitive speculation or deduction. The empiricist doctrine was first expounded by the English philosopher and statesman Francis Bacon early in the 17th century, but Locke gave it systematic expression in his Essay Concerning Human Understanding (1690). He regarded the mind of a person at birth as a tabula ras a, a blank slate upon which experience imprinted knowledge, and did not believe in intuition or theories of innate conceptions. Locke also held that all persons are born good, independent, and equal. See Epistemology ; Philosophy : Modern Philosophy.
Political Theories.
Locke's views, in his Two Treatises of Government (1690), attacked the theory of divine right of kings and the nature of the state as conceived by the English philosopher and political theorist Thomas Hobbes. In brief, Locke argued that sovereignty did not reside in the state but with the people, and that the state is supreme, but only if it is bound by civil and what he called "natural" law. Many of Locke's political ideas, such as those relating to natural rights, property rights, the duty of the government to protect these rights, and the rule of the majority, were later embodied in the U.S. Constitution.
Locke further held that revolution was not only a right but often an obligation, and he advocated a system of checks and balances in government, which was to comprise three branches, of which the legislative is more powerful than the executive or the judicial. He also believed in religious freedom and in the separation of church and state. See also Political Theory .
Locke's influence in modern philosophy has been profound and, with his application of empirical analysis to ethics, politics, and religion, he remains one of the most important and controversial philosophers of all time. Among his other works are Some Thoughts Concerning Education (1693) and The Reasonableness of Christianity (1695).

Note :on the quote that Machiavelli used in the Prince, and Locke used in his Two Treatise “Republic” form of civil government.

Quod si nihil " " potentiore juris humani relinquitur inopi, at ego ad Deos vindices humanae superbiae confugiam; et precabor ut iras
Suas vertant in eos, quibus non suae res, non alienae satis sint quorum Saevitiam non mors noxiorum exatiet; placari nequeant, nisi
hauriendum sanguinem laniandaque viscera nostra praebuerimus. Liv. Lib. Ix. c. i.

‘ But if, in dealing with the mighty, the weak are left no human rights, yet will I seek protection in the gods, who visit retribution on human pride. And I will beseech them that they turn their anger against those who are not content with their own, or with that of others, who will not be sated with the death of the guilty. They are not to be placated unless we yield to them our blood to drink and our entrails to tear out.”

“Redistribution of Wealth” steal from the rich and give to the poor “Metaphor” vs. The Locke Labor theory of PropertyLocke empirically demonstrates the right of a person to accumulate wealth and right to protect his property.To demonstrate the design to invert the perception of empirically demonstrated reality, you only have to use the example of the evolutionary socialist in their stating that they are like Robin Hood they steal from the rich to give to the poor! The legend of Robin Hood was that he was an English Saxon nobleman in Saxon England and Richard the lion heart was their king, who was captured while on crusade and held for ransom. his brother a Frenchman Norman prince John invaded England and removed the kings regent friend Long Shanks from his stewardship and seized the realm and began enslaving the peasants and over taxing and oppressing and killing the Saxon peasants, supposedly to pay the ransom to release his brother Richard the lion heart , robin hood faced off prince john in the great hall and called him and any Saxon nobleman followers traitors, that’s when lady Marian said that he spoke treason! And Robin Hood said fluently! When dealing with traitors! Then he told prince John that he only intended to buy his way to the throne of his brother and that he would organize the Saxon people and take a life for a life of these invading unjust French Norman tyrannical mortal enemies. The moral of the legend was that Robin Hood was retrieving stolen property from lying, murdering, and thieving invading Frenchman Norman mortal enemies and returned it to feed and protect Saxon peasant victims and to pay the ransom to free their king Richard the lionheart..

Therefore to compare, where the unproductive and counterproductive dependent subjects of the state moral & ethical and intellectual abstract reasoning illiterate citizens unjustly politically enfranchised so they can knowingly form coalitions to elect representatives to tax the honestly earned property of the productive independent middle-class income and struggling to become middle class income sovereign citizens. And for it to be called with the analogical inference stealing from the unjust “middle class” supposedly robber baron wealthy rich to give to the illiterate unproductive & counterproductive poor deserving masses is outrageous! It is tyranny! And sovereign citizens should be righteously indignant against this form of despotic abomination. Of a inverted perception of empirical reality!

Locke’s labor theory of property is demonstrated valid in that an individual who takes from nature that which is common property of all, and by his own honest labor makes and honest profit is entitled to his honest profit and it is the duty of civil government to protect his property which is the positive thesis of capitalist economic theory as opposed by the negative antithesis of socialist communist obviously unjust “redistribution of wealth” economic theory,

America has experienced one revisionist inverted constitutional interpretation after another for one hundred years, our Constitution was put in written form so it could not be arbitrarily changed. But simply because there was no evidence found in our known founding fathers writings to establish a correct interpretation of our fundamental principles, the revisionist systematically inverted constitutional interpretations, and then later more by revisionist Judicial Activism. All of this is not only unconstitutional, but Anti-constitutional!

A CHANGE is absolutely essential! Now we can even demand a Constitutional Convention! due to the resent re-enlightenment of the empirically demonstrated literary evidence that was intentionally obscured by Sovereign Citizens mortal enemies, that insisted that our British colonist founding fathers developed our fundamental founding principles of which evidence is no where to be found , but are located in Americas one plagiarized “Intellectual Founding Father” British Philosopher John Locke who was considered the Intellectual Ruler of the World in the 18th century in the British American colonies, because he defeated Aristotle’s system of logic: the system of logic developed by Aristotle, based on the kind of reasoning (syllogism) that reaches a conclusion from two independent statements with a common factor ‘And with his long chain of Empirical Self evident Propositions, in his Second Treatise of civil government concerning our American fundamental principles and the choices are to restore the 300 year old empirically demonstrated valid fundamental principles of a liberal individual right, democratic representative Liberal Republic.. “The Original Deal” where the citizens are sovereign and the state is the servant of the people. The first and most successful Empirical Experiment in civil government in the history of the World.! Or finish implementing the 150 year old Evolutionary Communist-Socialism with it’s Revisionist empirically demonstrated inverted fundamental principles using Democratic Scientific Socialism of a liberal individual right, complete or Pure Democratic representative, Liberal Democracy . “New Deal”. That simply reverses the original deal concept with the inverted proposition of the state is sovereign and the citizens are servants of the state. Or a replacement of a Metaphysical :“irreducible mystery “ God belief system with a reasonable leap of faith with a moral & ethical limited Human laws with liberal human rights, with a Ontological : “reducible mystery” Biological Evolution demigod belief system with a galactic leap of faith with liberal human laws with limited human rights.,

BIOLOGICAL EVOLUTION

There are about 20 million and one, species cataloged by science and the theory of biological evolution initially used invalid anthropological evidence in sequence proving the concept of transitional links between each species, which would be today approximately 20 million links . After about 150 years of emphasizing the link between man and ape! we find that not one! empirically demonstrated missing link has been discovered and proven! In modern science the laws of probability, demands a certain percentage of evidence !, its understood that absence of evidence is not evidence of absence! But complete absence of evidence, dictates that after 150 years of aggressive investigation with absolute zero results constitutes not only a invalid theory but and invalid conjecture and invalid concept and a intentional misrepresentation to specifically replace a proven Metaphysical principle of God with a intentional misrepresentation of a ontological Biological Evolutional god. Being indoctrinated to your children as a proven law !

CITIZEN : CONTENT OF CHARACTER
Positive Thesis:
As informal moral & ethical and intellectual abstract reasoning literate, common sense, personally responsible, productive, honorable legitimate, independent citizens. That practices pragmatic d i s c e r n m e n t or just discrimination, between extreme positive-positive and negative-extreme negative, and the analogical inference of extreme positive God - positive good character and negative bad character, extreme negative Evil. That derive their just liberal human rights and liberal civil rights by obeying the limited human laws of God, then Natures God and the following limited civil laws of our republic.
Negative Antithesis::
As informal moral & ethical and intellectual abstract reasoning illiterates, with a complete 3 thousand year history of human personally irresponsible, unproductive and counter-productive, dishonorable illegitimate dependent citizens. illiterate racist, bigot, unjust prejudice, hate monger, intolerant, unjust discriminating,. coalition of Liars, thieves, mass murders and Hetero-phobic‘s, savage human beings! That derive their unjust liberal human rights and liberal civil rights. in which they reject the limited human laws of Natures God and the following limited civil laws of our republic. But rather are completely derived from the democratic scientific socialist, demo-gods. Of which they are completely lock-step dependent on to retain and expand on, their unjust human & civil rights!

African slaves with a complete recorded history of informal moral & ethical and intellectual abstract reasoning illiteracy, have been empirically demonstrated to be a tribal people in a constant state of tribal warfare for 3 thousand years by first killing & enslaving each others tribes, then in the 16th century upon the arrival of white Portuguese, the tribes began selling the defeated and enslaved enemy tribes into world slavery, making money selling their enemies made better sense than killing and enslaving them, for themselves , that served both purposes and in 1612 the first African slaves arrived in the British American colonies, and indentured white slavery stopped. Then it was two hundred and eighty years, before the American civil war, ended African slavery in America, but the emancipation proclamation did not alter the fact that they were, and still are, informal moral & ethical and intellectual abstract reasoning illiterates, and not until the 1960’s, that the democratic scientific socialist inverted the worlds most advanced positive civil rights, with legislation, and forced integration in American education, did Africans began to speak with understandable American English, and not African slang and did learn basic intellectual abstract reasoning literacy, but they adamantly deny the empirical evidence reality that they perpetuated their own self inflicted human condition. An the predominantly unjust absolutely hate all white people! the illegitimacy rate of 80 percent of Africans in America is the empirical evidence that they are not moral & ethical abstract reasoning literates, who were unjustly politically enfranchised with the universal suffrage principle that is empirically demonstrated as a negative proposition. And they are the empirically demonstrated racial bigots, unjustly racially prejudiced against all white informal moral & ethical and intellectual abstract literate Sovereign Citizen’s of the original deal of a liberal Republic. That they still unjustly blame for their own complete historical human condition.

In the British American colonies they were the most literate complete population that the world has ever seen, ,the majority religion was 98 percent protestant Christian and in it the man accepts the responsibility for the protection of the wife and children as a covenant with God. and a social compact with each other, in addition to being educated in informal moral & ethical and intellectual abstract reasoning literate, common sense, personally responsible, productive, honorable, legitimate, independent citizens that due to their biological strength are obligated to be conscripted or drafted into a defensive military force to protect America from enemies.

Woman’s suffrage: Christian woman were already created equal to men, as many believe the better half of one complete pro-creative human in the sight of God. And did not need political enfranchisement. so obviously this was a secular movement for secular woman that have no covenant with the protestant Christian god, therefore, they reject the limited human laws, but they demand the liberal human rights and they are not endowed by this creator with certain unalienable rights that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. In addition to the biological strength insufficiency of the essential conscription element. Which only achieved dividing into half to conquer, the informal moral & ethical and intellectual abstract reasoning literate original majority of 100 percent of the political electorate. Then with universal suffrage with a African male & female informal moral & ethical and intellectual abstract reasoning illiterate anti-constitutional political enfranchisement. That politically completely disenfranchised the informal moral & ethical and intellectual abstract reasoning literate original majority down to 30 percent of the political electorate. Note: secular woman have premeditatedly murdered 50 million innocent unborn children, As a last option contraception for their own irresponsible promiscuous sexual behavior.

 

“UNJUSTLY SHAMING AMERICA INTO SUBMMISION “

America has been unjustly the focus of a extensive psychological warfare campaign, of inverting the perception of the empirical reality by the “New Deal” democratic scientific socialist that have commandeered and dominated the mass media, news papers, T.V., cable, internet , radio and movie production, public education system. and in a backward negatively Progressive step by step issue by issue method they have with the evolutionary socialism system developed by Eduard Bernstein the father of formal Revisionism that empirically analyses each issue and establishes a positive thesis conclusion empirical self evident proposition and its negative antithesis conclusion empirical self evident proposition by comparative analysis. Then inverts the positive thesis conclusion empirical self evident proposition, with a negative thesis conclusion empirical self evident proposition thereby then, using the classic rationalism formal philosophical polemic’s that provide no evidence, but does empirically demonstrate a perception of a truth, that is actually a lie, in its consistency in argumentation, especially when repeated over and over again, by those that appear to represent the objective intellectual consensus of educators, and mass media experts! to deliver a inverted perception of the empirical reality, that is that “good is good” and “bad is bad” replaced with “good is bad and bad is good” such issues as a negative thesis that heterosexuals are homo-phobic, when the empirical demonstrated truth is obviously demonstrated that a positive thesis that homosexuals are hetero-phobic! With a irrational hatred & denial of the their own biological reality, and the natural selection of heterosexual biological procreation of their species. And this system is scientifically applied 24/7/365 for the last 100 years, in a national domestic propaganda program to “Unjustly Shame America into Submission“. Creating a national public psychological environment of the psychological need of each individual to prove that they are not, as constantly and consistently accused of being, with a inverted perception of a historical heritage that being a mass of illiterate low life, white trash despicable obviously unjust racist bigots! The perfectly inverted perception of empirical reality! Hence the guilt complex of the white electorate victims of this evil system, that will now do their grand humanitarian duty as a badge of honor, in a electoral betrayal of the Sovereign Citizens of America.

The Romance of Righteous Revolution is compelling to all humans, but demonstrating the just principles of the Righteous Revolution is a prerequisite, in the American Revolution we made a Positive Radical Liberal 180 degree transition from the left Totalitarian - Authoritarian form of civil government, With liberal human laws and limited human rights. to the right with a Written Constitutional, liberal individual right, democratic representative, Republic form of civil government. With limited human laws and liberal rights.

Unfortunately America’s Sovereign Citizen’s Were educated in Informal, not Formal, moral & ethical and intellectual abstract reasoning literacy and subsequently failed their Stewardship in protecting our system, Today in 2008 we find ourselves faced with a Presidential election that promises a “Change we need” or a alleged Righteous Revolution that proposes a Negative Radical Illiberal 180 degree transition from the right, back to the Left Totalitarian - Authoritarian form of civil government. Which has liberal human laws and limited human rights. The failure to protect you from a socialist public education system with a socialist curriculum indoctrination, is our fault, but the law of nature is the law of reason, and it is your obligation to humanity to use common sense.

SOME THOUGHTS CONCERNING EDUCATION by JOHN LOCKE.
In educating children Locke teaches that Shame of doing amiss and deserving chastisement is the only true restraint belonging to virtue.- I think better than beating; for it is shame of the fault and disgrace that attends it that they should stand in fear of rather than pain.
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. — Such has been the patient sufferance of these United States; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to restore their former Systems of Government.
