Amending Our U.S. Constitution Directly - Part Two
In order to legislate campaign finance law we need to
amend our U.S. Constitution.
Our societal needs are based on mutual dependence. Our
tax monies are shared for everyone’s well being.
Our tax monies should pay for health clinics, police
and fire services, schools, and other societal needs.
Ideals of good governance support these needs.
Corporations are beneficial in the jobs and services
they provide our society.
But corporate needs are based on profit and
accumulating wealth. Corporations bribe public
officials to gain special access to our tax monies.
Therefore, corporate wealth is in opposition to the
ideals of good governance.
Our society has a choice. Either our society exists to
serve the needs of corporations, or we subordinate
corporations to serve the needs of our society.
If our republic is to survive, corporations cannot be
considered people, and money cannot equal free speech.
We can protect our society by amending our Constitution
and abolishing all U.S. Supreme Court precedents that
have allowed constitutional rights to corporations.
For this reason, our legislative amendment needs to be
a constitutional amendment. The only constitutional prerogative for amending our
U.S. Constitution is
Article V.
ARTICLE V CREATES FOUR METHODS
FOR AMENDING OUR U.S. CONSTITUTION
1. Congress proposes a constitutional
amendment and three-quarters of the State
Legislatures ratify that amendment.
2. Congress proposes a constitutional
amendment and Special State Conventions in
three-quarters of all the states ratify
that amendment.
3. A National Convention proposes a
constitutional amendment, and three-quarters of the State Legislatures ratify that amendment.
4. A National Convention proposes a
constitutional amendment, and special state conventions in three-quarters of all the
states ratify that amendment.
Because we have
disqualified Congress
from this process, Congress may not:
Propose this amendment,
vote on this amendment,
or
call for a national
convention.
Because we have
disqualified the
Democratic and Republican
parties from this process,
state legislatures may not
vote on this amendment.
Article V Now Reads:
The framers of the Constitution wanted a means whereby to bypass a potentially unwilling Congress in the amendment proposing process. The purpose of the Article V Convention is therefore to circumvent the federal Legislative Branch if and when it becomes incorrigibly corrupt, particularly if Congress resist rather than represents the people in their determination to enact reforms. Wikipedia- Article V National Convention
Nowhere in Article V, or anywhere in our Constitution is our citizenry outlawed from amending our Constitution. The Constitution allows a National Convention to legislate a constitutional amendment, and special state conventions to ratify that constitutional amendment. But National Convention is not necessarily a Constitutional argument. The Article V National Convention is used for organizing the structure to remedy a wrong. That wrong is the organized bribery of federal legislators through election campaign financing.
Our citizenry have conferred a Trust to Congress and the Democratic and Republican parties, and they have violated that trust. Campaign financing is an arm of our body politic. That arm is infected with a deadly cancer. Our citizenry have the prerogative to amputate that cancer to save our body politic. Prerogative is nothing but the power to do public good without a rule. Prerogative is a Sovereign Right.
Our citizenry have demanded for many election cycles that Congress, and the Democratic and Republican parties end the bribery of federal legislators through campaign financing. They have refused are demands. We now choose to exercise our democratic prerogative by withdrawing all authority we citizens have conferred to them for resolving this matter. We citizens shall resolve this matter directly. This is the purpose of the National Convention.
The profession of Attorney in the United States is a national disgrace. This profession is primarily responsible for the organized and legal bribery or our federal legislators, and they and their false arguments should not be allowed to obfuscate and undermine our purpose in convening a National Covention. Our citizenry, the nurses, teachers, trades people, waiters, busdrivers, public servants, and everyone of voting age must decide this important matter. This national matter must be resolved by a national vote.
"The Legislature should be chosen by the unpurchased vote of the people, and the laws should severely punish any attempt to buy or purchase the vote of a citizen or legislator". John Locke
"The People made the Constitution, the People can unmake the Contitution". Justice Thurgood Marshal, U.S Supreme Court
IN REVIEW
In Part One, we established our citizens’ need to
disqualify Congress, and the Democratic and Republican
political parties, from all processes in the
legislation of federal election campaign finance law, and our citizens sovereign right to legislate campaign finance law directly.
In Part Two, we established that our legislation
needed to be a constitutional amendment.
ARTICLE V directs us to convene a National
Convention.
