I'm far from a legal eagle,but I THINK this has to do with the NAFTA agreement. I'm not sure of the exact wording,but I'm pretty sure we surrendered.
The Constitution cannot conflict with itself..."All laws which are repugnant to the Constitution are null, and void Marbury vs. Madison, 5 US (2Cranch) 137, 174, 176, (1803)
Therefore no agreement, (treaty) can suspend a person rights...what they are trying to suggest, is that "convicted in any court" has some legal horsepower...this is just "newspeak"...I'd be sueing
