What Could Go
Wrong? The Federal Fox is Guarding the States’ Rights Henhouse
In
the Articles of
Confederation (America’s original constitution), the States were empowered
to guard States’ Rights. Not so in the Federal Constitution, which illegally
replaced the Articles.
The
10th Amendment of the Federal Constitution reads thus: “The powers
not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to
the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”
It’s
a wonderful statement in support of States’ Rights, if it were kept. Anti-Federalists
wanted it to be kept, which is why it was added to the Federal Constitution, so
as to get enough support for Federal Constitution ratification. However,
according to the Federal Constitution, the Federal Government is supposed to be
the party that enforces this 10th Amendment provision.
Patrick
Henry warned that the Federal Government would not enforce this provision,
which is one reason he believed the Articles of Confederation should not be
replaced by the Federal Constitution. He
could foresee that the Federal Fox would “guard” the States’ Rights henhouse,
all right. It would “guard” it while
chewing and digesting it.
It is time for Anglo-American patriots
to see through the Federalist
duplicity. It is time for us to work
towards restoration of a
confederated USA of Anglo-American
Patriot
States, under the Articles
of Confederation (America’s first constitution that was unadvisedly and
illegally abandoned), with America’s first national
flag (the Continental Colors or Grand Union flag) as the symbol of our
enterprise:
This
confederated USA can have partitioned out of the USA those liberal “blue” areas
in a sea of “red” areas that remain part of the USA, such as illustrated here:
In
order to reach this goal, the Anglo-American patriots of today can follow the
basic playbook of our patriot forefathers: create a network of Committees
of Correspondence of Anglo-American
patriots
in every State of the USA. When large enough in each State, these in turn can
elect a council/assembly of leaders, which in turn can send delegates to a
restored Continental
Congress, seeking a return to the Articles of Confederation and listing its
grievances with the Federal government.
The
centralized Federal empire over a “global nation” will fall, and the
confederated USA of Anglo-American
Patriot States, under the Articles
of Confederation, will rise in its stead. This confederated USA will be a
nation of and for the Anglo-American patriot people to God’s glory, not a
multi-cultural “global
nation” Empire that only really serves the interests of an elite few.
States’ Rights will be the victor, and the long struggle of Anti-Federalists
against all human odds will be vindicated.
Please
consider joining the struggle by joining your State’s Committee of
Correspondence: http://www.puritans.net/articles/State%20Committees%20of%20Correspondence%20by%20State.htm .
State organizers are especially needed.
