For those of you who have not had a classic education, including history, especially American History, and your own respective State histories, my condolences. Here are some things you thus, can NOT know: The federal government was created by the States, not the other way around.
The POTUS is elected by the States, still today—the Electoral College, not popular vote. Why? So “the tail won’t wag the dog”; the same reason we have a Senate—each state having 2 votes, regardless of population. The Senate can derail any House of Representatives initiative by a simple vote—we won’t get into filibustering, cloture, etc.; you just won’t be able to comprehend it. My apologies, in advance. It was designed this way so that the highly populated, urban states could not dominate the balance of the country. Those states that have all of a sudden decided they would split their popular vote into a split electoral vote are in direct violation of the U.S. Constitution. A lawsuit need only be filed to resolve that trite matter.
Quite a number of our first presidents were elected without one “popular vote” being cast. Shocked? That’s right; our “Founding Father” Presidents were elected without ONE popular vote being cast. A GREAT Trivia Question is: how many of our presidents were actually elected without even ONE popular vote being cast? That will be your homework question.
Our Constitution; the Supreme Law of the Land, clearly states the Federal Government has these functions and these functions ONLY: “insure domestic [common] Tranquility, provide for the common defense, and promote the general Welfare” [e.g. Commerce Clause]. It also loosely references the establishment of Justice [Supreme Court] and secures the Blessings of Liberty—that would be the Bill of Rights—The Divine Rights of Man. That’s it! No Mas!. Emphases Added.
See the 9th & 10th Amendments of the Constitution [Bill of Rights] for clarification of the extent of the domain of the Federal Government:
Ninth Amendment – Protection of rights not specifically enumerated in the Bill of Rights.
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
Tenth Amendment – Powers of States and people.
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.
The Federal government is exceeding its authority and that is why the most brilliant mind—Thomas Jefferson—was so adamant about the Bill of Rights, and most especially, what became the 2nd Amendment; for the Citizenry to take back its rightful preeminence over the Federal government. Not for shooting ducks!
That is also why half the states—Sovereign & Independent States—now have Sovereignty laws, or resolutions, or concurrent resolutions pending in their respective legislatures, some of which have already passed in at least one chamber. The respective resolutions do not even need the signature of the respective Governor—he/she will never see it. Concurrent Resolutions, when enacted, go to a vote of the people in those states.
That is also why Montana just passed their Sovereignty Statute, signed by their Governor, regarding their 2nd Amendment rights. Keep your eyes and ears open for this as it unfolds. It will be the education you unfortunately never had. This is just setting up their overall Sovereignty Statute legislation under the 9th and 10th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
If these are things you do not know, do us all, and your country, a big favor and refrain from voting next time. You will do us all and your country a big favor.
