CONSTITUTIONISTS'
NETWORKING CENTER
PLANNING
- THE
BASIS FOR
UNITY
The Constitutionists'
Networking Center (CNC) recently received an organization’s Newsletter
saying: "NO ONE CAN DO EVERYTHING BUT
EVERYONE CAN DO SOMETHING!" That is how we will take
back our government...But it will require everyone doing something,
whatever it is they are capable of doing.”
Is this true or is
the real need one of a unified effort on the few actions through which
concerned Americans can gain control of government? The CNC
believes that the quickest, most efficient, and
perhaps only way for
Constitutionists' to take America back is through a widespread
unity of action on the objectives lying on the critical path to a goal
of government operating within the limits prescribed by the
Constitution.
CNC endorses a
statement made by Medori Severi. He said: “until
we abandon our manifold private agendas and unite, we will merely be
hapless observers standing at the bottom of a dark, deep pit, wistfully
hoping to save the world, but really doing little more than breaking the
fall of compatriots who are pushed in on top of us. Only by uniting in a
common effort devoid of subjective paradigms will we be able to mold the
human spirit upon which we may ascend to freedom...."
With the Constitution
as the basis for unity, the CNC believes there can be a “common
effort devoid of subjective paradigm” and that the needed
unity can best be achieved by concerned Americans and organizations
jointly developing and implementing a plan. Such a plan must provide a
process for building a nationwide team made up of thousands of local,
county and State teams which are dedicated to Taking
America Back (TAB
teams).
If we are to quickly
build these TAB teams, concerned Americans need to heed Gillaume
Pitt’s advice. He said: “every meeting,
every conference, (the CNC would include every talk show)
and every conversation is a failure that does not produce an army. The
first requisite of an army is to subscribe to service. It is not your
mission to discover how God will use you; that is for God alone to know.
If it is God’s wish, it will be revealed to you. At this moment in
history your only mission is to serve with honor and succeed, but if you
imagine you can either serve or succeed without God, you are in the
wrong army.”
KEYS TO
UNITY
The CNC suggests that
the three key elements forming the basis for "teaming
up" to TAKE
AMERICA BACK are:
1. a set of premises
upon which the team will rely for its position on issues.
2. a common
understanding of the problem we face.
3. a goal.
In addition to
providing a basis for unity of thought and action, the CNC suggests that
adoption of a few undeniable truths is a preemptive act. It will help
prevent being unfairly labeled as "far right", the "other
Americans" or affiliates of some discredited organization.
Therefore, the CNC suggests every Constitutionally committed individual
and group choosing to help implement a plan adopt a position paper
containing their beliefs. Ours follow but may change to reflect comments
offered by others.
1. The
Declaration of Independence is our Nation's birth certificate and the
cornerstone of our Constitution. Its policies are to be pursued in
conducting our Nation's affairs.
2. There can
only be one set of Supreme policies and laws for any Nation. For the
U.S., the set includes our Declaration of Independence, Constitution for
the U.S. (including the Bill of Rights), the Constitution's for the
individual States and all lawfully ratified Amendments whose pros, cons,
and full impact were understood by voters and their representatives
prior to ratification and whose purpose was, and is in pursuance of the
principles, procedures and intent of our Declaration of Independence and
Constitution's Preamble.
3. The Bill of
Rights are restrictions on government and theoretically prohibit it from
making laws which infringe on those Rights. To be lawful, an
ordinance or law cannot infringe upon any Right set forth in the Bill of
Rights.
4. Any lawful
change to the form, policies, principles and/or operational procedures
of our duly constituted government must be approved by 75% of our state
legislatures. Since no state has ratified major changes to them, any
Treaty, Charter, Foreign Constitution, covenant, Legislative Act,
International Convention, etc. must be in pursuance of the spirit and
intent of the principles set forth in our nation's founding documents to
be lawful.
5. The
Constitution of the U.S. is a Compact between "free and independent
states." Through this Compact, they, on behalf of we the sovereign
people, created the federal government as an AGENT. As the
principals to the Constitution and under the Law of Agency, it is we the
people, operating through our State legislatures, who possess the
ultimate authority and responsibility for the Constitution's proper
interpretation and implementation.
6. The U. S.
Supreme Court was correct in saying:
- a. "This
Court has regularly and uniformly recognized the supremacy of the
Constitution over a treaty." (Reid vs. Covert)
- b.
"All laws repugnant to the Constitution are null and
void." (Marbury vs. Madison)
- c. "Where
rights secured by the Constitution are involved, there can be no
rule making or legislation which would abrogate them."
(Miranda vs. Arizona)
7. The
Constitution's 10th Amendment stating "the
powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution ... are
reserved to the States respectively, or to the people" and
the statement in Federalist Paper #41 saying "For
what purpose could the enumeration of particular powers be inserted if
these and all others were meant to be included in the proceeding general
power" provide incontestable evidence that the only lawful
powers of the Federal Government are those enumerated in the
Constitution of the United States.
8. No Federal
Agent has, nor has ever had, the lawful authority to dissolve the
Constitutional Compact nor distort its purposes and intent as provided
in its Preamble and clarified in the Federalist Papers.
*************end of
premises*************
PROBLEM -
Though the CNC's view is that "our nation has
been, and continues to be very deliberately, systematically, pervasively
and unconstitutionally mismanaged on behalf of the world's
financial/industrial cartel," we are in full agreement with
the allegation made by the Republican governors in 1994 when they said: "Federal
action has exceeded the clear bounds of its jurisdiction under the
Constitution and thus violated rights guaranteed to the people." The
CNC is willing to accept the governors allegation as the definition of
our nation's problem if it is more palatable to others.
GOAL -
Following their allegation, the governors pledged "to
restore to the States and the people the prerogatives and freedoms
guaranteed them under the Constitution." If this
pledge were to become reality, we believe it will satisfy the CNC's
stated goal of "a government again
operating within the limits prescribed by the Constitution."
NEEDED ACTION -
Individuals and organizations in general agreement with the cited
premises, statement of our problem, and goal and who are willing to
agree to disagree agreeably when necessary and to network with others in
pursuit of the major objectives lying on the goals critical path, are
encouraged to:
1. Show your
commitment to help Take America Back by sending the CNC a signed copy of
the CALL TO ACTION
that you will find within this web site. Note: 2. Provide the
individuals and organization whom you support a copy of the
CALL
TO ACTION and find out if they will also make a commitment to help
TAKE AMERICA BACK. If they won't, be discerning for there are
seven factors that motivate those in the Consitutionists' movement; only
one of which is results.
3. Inform
everyone whom you think might share our concerns of this web site or
send a copy of this communication to them for their review and
consideration.
4. Rewrite the
stated premises, problem, and goal if you think they can be
significantly improved upon and send your suggested verbiage to the CNC.
5. Send the CNC
a copy of your pledge to participate on a TAB
team dedicated to Taking America Back.
If and when mutually
acceptable statements on these items are agreed upon, we can try to
jointly identify and define other items to be included in a plan.
The CNC suggests the remaining questions to be answered and the sequence
in which they should be addressed are:
1. What are the
major objectives lying on the critical path to our goal?
2. Who will be
responsible for the pursuit of these objectives?
3. What options
are available for satisfying each objective?
4. What strategies
and tactics will be employed under each option for each objective?
5. How will those
helping to implement the plan be efficiently and effectively networked?
6. Who will be
responsible for overseeing the plan's implementation?
7. What logistical
considerations must be satisfied?
8. By what
standard will we determine if individuals and organizations are friend
or foe so we can insure our resources are being put to productive use?
Though an answer to
each of these questions is proposed in the book
To
Tame a Tyrant (ISBN 1-57921-034-1), they too should be critiqued and
worthy comments included in the plan.
I pray each recipient of
this communication will give it serious consideration as time is of the
essence. We can no longer afford the luxury of having our few
precious resources diverted into chasing symptoms of our problem or in
trying to study it out of existence! Let's move beyond being
"Keyboard Cowboys" engaged in great debates over the crossing
of t's and the dotting of I's. Let's cut the chase,
get to the heart of our problem, objectively analyze the options for
solving it, establish an organizational structure through which we can
and will network with one another, and GO FOR IT! THE TIME FOR
DILLYDALLYING IS OVER. We have a challenge to meet and with God's blessing, objective thinking, and responsible action, we can and will
meet it!
