In particular, people tend to miss the stipulation in Article VI requiring laws be made pursuant to the constitution to establish supremacy. Virtually no one understands the tenth amendment and reserved powers. Virtually no one understands the original intent of the Bill of rights as a whole.

But it's a tall mountain to climb, no doubt. I personally acquired over 2,000 pocket-sized copies of the constitution several months back and I've been passing them out ever since, to elected leaders and average citizens. I never fail, while doing this, to point them to a provision in the constitution that my conversation with them convinces me has eluded them.Terry Morrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00166609562028309038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1763883859696167228.post-24112366710127949892010-09-01T22:40:08.505-05:002010-09-01T22:40:08.505-05:00"Activist judges and progressive legislators ...<i>"Activist judges and progressive legislators are rare and immediately impeached and removed, with disqualification from holding future office added for those who transgress in the service of known enemies of the United States."</i><br />If only that were true.

You vote for people who value and respect the Constitution. The Constitution gives them enormous latitude when it comes to removing those demonstrably hostile to the plain sense of the Constitution from office. Activist judges and progressive legislators are rare and immediately impeached and removed, with disqualification from holding future office added for those who transgress in the service of known enemies of the United States.<br /><br />Holding office at the Federal level is primarily an exercise in carefully not treading on the Constitution, because voters care more about removing traitors from office than they worry about largess taken from national taxes, particularly the voters of states (or districts) you don't represent.<br /><br />This system depends on just two things, voters who value the Constitution and an honest ballot. And today, America has neither.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
