Americans everywhere:
October 14, 2013
What
was the purpose of the founding of The United States of America and the
creation of its Constitution? Before the migration from Europe to this
newly discovered land, all people of the civilized world were ruled by
Kings. Even the early established states of this new land were ruled, as
a colony, by the King of England.
Then
something very profound and monumental took place, the American
Revolution, a war for the freedom of man. A group of men bent on their
desire to be free and rule themselves in a land where the government
answered to the people and not the people answering to the King and his
court, rose up and risked their lives and fortunes in an attempt to end
government dictating to, taxing at will, and over regulating the people.
Through the shedding of their blood and fortune the American Republic
was born, an experiment in self government. As you know the opening shot
fired in that revolution was called “the shot heard round the world.”
It was so called because it was a rebellion against, not only the King
of England, but against mankind being ruled by kings.
Kings
and dictatorial leaders all over the world heard that shot. They heard
the shot that proclaimed that men were now in rebellion to being
subjects of a government, or king, and willing to challenge it.
We Americans
celebrate on July 4 every year, the marking of American independence
from England and its king, a very radical departure from governments
which prevailed all over, “round the world,” at that time, and for
thousands of years before. Never before in those thousands of years had
the rule of kings ever been challenged. Kings challenged each other, but
never had the people challenged the kings and their rule.
Is
the United States an exceptional country? Barack Obama has stated
publicly that he doesn't think it is. I here quote Thomas Sowell, “You
couldn’t be more exceptional in the 18th century than to
create your fundamental document, the Constitution of the United States,
by opening with the momentous words, “We the people…”
Those
three words were a slap in the face to those who thought themselves
entitled to rule, and regarded the people as if they were simply human
livestock, destined to be herded and shepherded by their betters.
Indeed, to this very day, elite who think that way, and that includes
many among those who regard themselves as the educated and enlightened
class, as well as the Liberal news media and political messiahs, find
the Constitution of the United States a real pain because it stands in
the way of their imposing their will and their presumptions on the rest
of us.
Barack Obama stated in an interview on network T V, "The founders made
it very hard to change things as quickly as I want to." He also stated
in a public speech, "If congress doesn't do what I think is necessary, I
won't wait on them, I'll do it anyway." Never before in American
history has any president issued as many executive orders ignoring
congress and the Constitution as has Barack Obama.
A
campaign was started many years ago by President Woodrow Wilson, and
continues today, to undermine and discredit the United States
Constitution. Those efforts are headed today by the Progressive Liberals
(Socialists) both in our news media and our federal government, and
they are led, among others, by George Soros and Barack Obama,
and his personally appointed Socialist Czars with which he has
surrounded himself.
The
managing editor of Time Magazine, Richard Stengle, in an essay he wrote
is a case in point, where he says, “If the Constitution was intended to
limit the federal government, it certainly doesn’t say so.” Mr.
Stengle, I would like to direct you to the Tenth Amendment of that
document, for apparently you have not read it. It reads, “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 the
people.”
Our
Constitution was designed to create a framework for a
Federal Government—and worded to keep the government inside that
framework. In other words, the Constitution exists for the purpose
of limiting the powers of the Federal Government.
“Does the Constitution matter?” “If it doesn’t, then neither does our freedom."
America, we are on a collision course with full blown Socialism.
In November of next year all 435 seats of the House of Representitives
and 34 Senate seats will be constitutionally vacated for us to refill.
We are in charge of who will sit in them. If we do not replace the
Progressive Liberals with men and women who are defenders of our
Constitution we will be giving Barack Obama two years of full power to
complete his burning mission to turn this nation into the Socialist
States of America. The Republic of The United States of America will be
wiped away forever.
May God bless America and keep us free.
Please feel free to forward to all you wish.
John Porter.
