RE: Spanish passport

I never saw it and never asked but perhaps there is a common passport. I'll ask her.

But Spain is still Spain.

Each EU member has a passport for travel outside the EU. Member states also use a common passport design, burgundy colored with the name of the member state, national seal and the title “European Union” (or its translation).

Thanks. You saved be a call. She's in Spain now.

You obviously have some knowledge. I've never went too far out of the way to learn about the EU.

Aren't member states still considered sovereign countries?

When I read the CFR document about our "union" I believe that it stated that we would keep our sovereignty. We would cooperate -- though I believe that the word was "collaborate."

Being the US with the greatest military on earth helps to retain the right of political sovereignty. However the "world community" can single out independent countries and impose it's will through the Security Council and invoke Chapter VII.

Any particular group of persons, counties or regions can change allegiances, join or break any treaty, abide or disregard international law. That IMO is not the issue, it's that the US global elites are doing exactly what our Founding Fathers never wanted.

Actually the only search for the word "sovereign" in the CFR Building a NA Community resulted in 3 hits and 2 for "sovereignty." One hit was a dissenting view by Thomas S. Axworthy.

The report does allude to a respect of national sovereignty, but as indicated in a section on implementing regualtion it states, "Each jurisdiction would retain the sovereign right to shape rules within its borders, but in principle, country-specific regulations should only be adopted when no international or North American approach already exists, where there are unique national circumstances or priorities, or where there is a well-founded lack of trust in the regulatory practices of the other partners."

A new bureaucratic mechanism is advocated....Trinationalism.

You're correct. As you noted it does do some alluding "It is a partnership of sovereign states with overlapping economic and security interests. . . ."

These types of people (our very model of modern mandarins) love them nuances -- I guess them overlapping economic and security interests trump everything from heritage and tradition to our Constitution. Sin duda.

BTW, you mentioned "the US global elites."

I've long believed that that cabal is headed up by New Democrat Third Way "progressives" who (finally!) recognize that socialism can never create wealth and thus they string along "useful idiots."

Cavorting and romping with corporations at Devos and around the globe they are in fact fighting a Marxist revolution from the top down.

Once all them boats around world are floating the "progressives" are going to turn to their "partners" and ask, "Got rope for sale?"
