Article II, Section 1, Clause 2: Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.
12th Amendment: The Electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves; ..."
From a related thread
Patriots need to understand that, since they grew up with a POTUS nomination process corrupted by political parties, they wrongly think that the process somehow compliments the Constitution.
In fact, the political parties are only not defined by the Constitution, but they exist to control 10th Amendment-protected state powers and associated state revenues that the corrupt Washington cartel has been stealing from the states since the end of the Civil War, and arguably since the administration of President George Washington imo.
In fact, note that one of the very few powers that the states have actually delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, to decide domestic policy is to regulate, tax and spend for the US Mail Service (1.8.7).
So a key question concerning the political parties is, how many political parties does it take to manage the US Mail Service?
I say none.
Remember in November !
If patriots elect Trump, Cruz, or whatever conservative they elect, they will also need to elect a new, state sovereignty-respecting Congress that will work within its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers to not only support the president, but also surrender back to the states state powers and state revenues that the corrupt feds have been stealing from the states.
In fact, note that such a Congress will also probably be willing to fire state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices.
Yes, where is CW and Libbylu?
I believe CW got zotted for life. :-)
But with Trumps path to 1,237 delegates on such a knifes edge,
Knife’s edge? LOL. What nonsense. The GOP isn’t going to commit suicide for such a lousy candidate like Ted Cruz.
Funny stuff coming from a guy who made a fortune off rigged systems, all the while successfully convincing millions who entered his casinos that they really had a chance.
Libbylu wrote an opus, and then I think she was kick off.
came back somehow, now gone again?
Never missed libby until you said something.
Kind of like not missing a spoiled screaming kid on an airplane who falls asleep.
No kidding? Too bad. But she did certainly shoot the moon this election cycle and became unrecognizable.
I see *LibbyLu is banned or suspended for the umpteenth time!
That is a Thanks be to God zot, for sure. Hateful, hysterical hellion on wheels with no brakes wench.
Got that? LOL! (sorry for the rant.. I feel better now.)
Huh.
Trump Derangement can be a deadly virus.
There’s a whole bunch still here, staggering around with the symptoms.
It’s amazing to me how deeply infected some are, and not all of it can be explained by being on a Cruz payroll.
OMGosh, true THAT!
Actually, CW still has her member page. Nothing posted since March 26. Hope she is okay.
OK I meant C Edmund Wright. Maybe that’s not who we are talking about.
Kind of good to hear CW might still be around.
I always liked her, well, until she went a bit crazy.
Hope she comes back.
Libbylu gets so many timeouts I can’t keep up. :-)
And if those who got caught rigging the system get the Zot of all Zots from the voters, what’s wrong with that. After all, life isn’t fair - as you say.
Which bathroom will Trump use today?
it was Wile E. Cayote grinning as he set off the dynamite that blasted his sorry singed hide off the side of the mesa to go splat on the canyon floor. It is certainly the most comic move in American electoral politics.
I know. Seriously.
LobbyLouie was moonlighting here to stink up the place and bragging about the smell she left over there at that-other-site.
LOL!
Read the first line.
HOW TO STEAL A LAWNMOWER
o Quit whining that your neighbor STOLE your LAWNMOWER.
There are rules.
He owns a private company.
o You are such a wimp! It’s just a LAWNMOWER.
Your neighbor had his delegate son steal it.
You need a majority of his family agree to return it.
The no voter win says you lose, unanimously. No juries.
Your neighbor is now coming to steal your REFRIGERATOR!
And if you riot or threaten, he wants you arrested.
Yes I saw it the night he ate the zot. LOL! I warned him the day before that he was going to get zotted when he sent me a nasty name calling Freepmail. I did not turn him in but others did. He is a hot mess.
