I think your points are quite valid and along the lines of getting Congress to listen to the people isn't that oath of office essentially a contract with the people? I've heard it's basically a "naked contract" that requires "acceptance" from a living breathing soul. Perhaps the reason no one listens to us is that even though they've offered a contract to us no-one has accepted it as a firm and binding compact for the protection of one's rights.

Believe it or not it was Newt Gingrich who said on TV on the O'reilly Factor, that America was founded on a covenant and Europe's government was based on a contract.

The covenant is that we Americans get our rights and powers from the creator. We give some of our power to our elected officials for the purpose of government but we can always take it back from them because it belongs to us.

Europe's government is contractual. The people of Europe are just protoplasm (in Gingrich's words) and their government can give or take rights and freedoms at any time. (This idea must also be where the UN gets the idea that humans are merely biological resources to be moved around, educated only for the purposes of their labor, then used for labor)

We have to preserve the idea that our nation and our government is a covenant of the people and that we can take power away from the government when necessary because our power belongs to us.

I was very surprised at Mr. Gingrich's discussion and happy that someone on national television is acknowledging the roots of our government.

He also said to get rid of the activist judges, it is perfectly Constitutional for the people to abolish the court. For example, the judges of the 9th circuit have been overturned more times than any other judges in history. The people of the United States have every right to abolish that court. He said it was done in 1802, I think, to prevent the federalization of the newly formed government and to preserve individual and states rights.

Its worth looking into, definitely.
