MUCH can be done in the meantime among the American people individually and in the individual states as outlined.

I don't mean to be argumentative, but I don't see where any action is outlined, other than observations.

we need action NOW, beginning with the American People educating themselves on THEIR most precious political document...

Agreed. Hopefully this also speeds up acceptance of an Article V proposing convention.

and states saying "NO!!" to unconstitutional federal acts.

The problem here is that the federal government simply declares the acts to be constitutional and proceeds as such with a compliant Congress standing idly by. Witness the recent pushback by states over Syrian "refugees," and Obama's response. Look at how Obama continued to issue green cards to illegally "Executive ordered " illegal aliens. Look at the Iran non-treaty treaty. Look at Arizona's own overturned immigration enforcement law.

Obama is declaring whatever he wants to do to be constitutional and daring everyone else to stop him. The states are already saying "no," and Obama is responding with "yeah, whatever."

The action outlined is:

1) The American People arm themselves with knowledge and understanding of the Constitution and written and originally understood and intended.

2) The American People through their representatives in their individual states and in the federal government nullify, reject, and/or repeal unconstitutional federal acts and omissions.

But there must be teeth in that nullification. The states must a) follow up and actually prevent implementation of such acts b) must be prepared to go without federal financial “aid” ie. become financially INDEPENDENT from the feds - that would be a good thing and 3) be ready and armed including civilian militia to fight the feds if it comes to blows.

You as many might say “rots a ruck” for a state in an armed fight against the feds. Well, about 250 years ago, they said the same thing about a rag-tag bunch of colonists against the most powerful nation in the world.

As I said, the fight for freedom holds no guarantees, but is a battle worth fighting. A life lived and died for freedom is better than a life in slavery and surrender to tyranny. Obama has quickly brought these issues into high definition and clear resolution.
