it seems almost mandatory

Yet another mandate in DC!

a CC would be dominated by leftists. Imagine mandatory prison sentences for school kids who refused to shower with trannies of the opposite sex.

“Governments operate, to a degree, by force, but ultimately they depend on legitimacy.” Ah so; perhaps some are beginning to understand why the pirate Roberts was placed at the head of the SCOTUS ... unConstitutional laws must be given an air of legitimacy that the sheeple will accept. But Roberts has proven too quickly that he is under orders from someone not sitting the bench! Sadly, the sheeple will not catch on until it is too late, because the most demonic force, the media, is employed to prevent truth from reaching the people.

Cut down to the specifics, its a helluva powerful statement:

'If you’re the president, member of congress, govt. agent, etc,
the only reason why anyone should listen to what you say,
is because you exercise power via the Constitution'.

'If the Constitution doesn’t count, you don’t have any legitimate power. and should be (forcibly) removed for trying to exercise power you don’t possess'.

[jsanders2001]

if the government can ignore it, the people can, too.

they cant demand we respect their power, esp their unconstitutional powers they’ve taken that they don’t have, and they take away our guaranteed rights.

Yippee! No more income taxes!

Many of us, will not see the day, when Our Republic is re- Constitutionaly established. Regardless, this will happen.

Anybody who thinks a Con-Con would make our situation better is very naive, IMHO.

Very.

The problem is that, for all our population, I don’t see a single George Washington.

Many of us, will not see the day, when Our Republic is re- Constitutionaly established. Regardless, this will happen. By the grace of God, and our great efforts now.

"Would-be elites who can steal elections can steal constitutional conventions, and I don’t think for a second that the GOP wouldn’t collaborate with the socialists to stay in power to keep feeding off the corpse of the Republic."

Would-be elites who can steal elections can steal constitutional conventions, and I don’t think doubt for a second that the GOP wouldn’t will happily collaborate with the socialists to stay in power to keep feeding off the corpse of the Republic.

A three part article I just came across is one of the most significant I have ever seen concerning the state of our destruction.

Thanks for the link in post #16.

It is, indeed, an important series of articles. The connection between Bill Ayers and Barack Obama cannot be emphasized enough.

38% of Democrats think the government is a threat to them right after the election??????????????

Their voting patterns make absolutely no sense, even for Democrats.

There’s nothing wrong with the original Constitution, applied equally to everyone. Any variance from that is an insult and danger to freedom. If we could only push a reset button on the Constitution. Now that would be wonderful, before the 16th and 17th Amendments...

Add this to another recent poll in which only 22% of likely voters feel America’s government has the “consent of the governed,” and you’ve got a pretty depressing picture — and a recipe for potential trouble. Governments operate, to a degree, by force, but ultimately they depend on legitimacy. A government that a majority views as a threat, and that only a small minority sees as enjoying the consent of the governed, is a government with legitimacy problems.

I said this right after the election...

...Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, ...

When elected officials and bureaucracies act outside the law they are simply lawbreakers. When the majority of the people vote in favor of total lawlessness in the highest offices they are withdrawing their consent to be governed by a constitutional government. By what legitimate basis does the United States of America, as a Constitutional republic, still exist?

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

'The People' no longer support that. They voted in support of lawlessness from the highest office on down. They voted against the rule of law. By referendum we now have a banana republic. The USAINO.

Ma deuce at 1000 yds. Nothing beats the foot pounds of energy at the target. .50 cal will beat anything on the battle field as a sniper rifle.

God I pray America wakes up before the dogs of war are unleashed, because, the American people are a good people and will clean up this country in short order when SHTF!
