"Whistle-Stop" Total Recall Campaigh
Re: Heading south soon Constitution Convention "Whistle-Stop" debate discussion
Hello:
Putting together a "Whistle-Stop" tour; debating, discussing, and teaching The Rule of Law as it apies to these united States of America(the nation) and "The United States of America" (the government).
Going school to school ( colleges and universities), station to station ( radio, t.v., cable, and social), bookstore to bookstore, in a similar -- but slower -- manner th I did in 2008 (as one of nearly 400 USA presidential candidates) I managed 35 states on about $27,000 (which may decrease as used items and volunteer editing, proofing, illustrations and animation labor become available).
Thiis time, the campaign hits all 50 states PLUS all populates possessions and territories, as well as some foreign countries perhaps.
All that's left before take off is completing the finances and other resources:
+$10,000 cash (and/or E-Gift debit and credit cards to danielmkingery@gmail.comwhich I will change to include a more secure service) to acquire the following
-- $13,000 https://sway-motorsports.myshopify.com/products/sway-basic-voucher with a trailer not sholwn in price at link
-- $11,000 computer and cameras for recording, editing, and publishing / broadcadting debate discussions as they happen live.
-- $2,000 cash reserves for initial travel until other sales and donations come in.
At present, I have $164. And loose change.
Travel and living cost not included, as nearly all food, bed, shower, and laundry will be at peopme's homes or at places of debate and discussion.
Here's to FINALLY putting into practice the DESIGN (vintage 1776) for our nation and intended purpose for our government.
Thank you.
P.s. For those who would like to consider this an investment in the future: I will set aside 10% of gross sales receipts for proportional distribution among investors; until such time that 5X initial investment is returned.
Go to MyVanilla at vanillagift.com/catalog and E-gift whatever you can to danielmkingery@gmail.com
These funds keep CleanHonestGov.Com going. When available, funds will pay professionals to edit, proof, illustrate, and animate content.
Thank You.
For perhaps the next three months; I will be farther from the White House. Most likely location at:McPherson Square, Washington, DC. All other locations out of date. Thank you.

Once edited, proofed, and officially published; this Signature‐Ballot should take less than 70 days to get all the required signatures — if we truly are united States Americans.
Over 60% of all registered voters disapprove of the government.
Over 98% of all politicians in elected office (city, county, state, federal) never attained the consent from the majority of the total number of registered voters in their respective districts; which, as we soon see, is required to be duly elected.
With this knowledge, we see how properly controlling our government gets a lot easier.
In the next several sections, the evidence proves that all registered voters do vote. All we have to do is wake that majority of Registered Voters to the solutions contained within this Total Recall Campaign Signature-Ballot as The Owner's Manual; What every united States American should know about controlling our governments.

Read content with the intent help improve it:
- Make notes about your comments, suggestions, and questions.
- Something not clearly written? Identify those parts, note what that part conveys to you. Also, add what you think it intended to get across.
- If a part seems just crazy and out of place, write that, and state why.
- If you have a better and shorter way to present the idea, write it down.
- Together we will improve our government.
To properly comprehend the meaning and intent of the words used in this Constitution, where they do not reference or are not used in The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America, use a common‐use dictionary of the united States of America's, American‐English Language in print between the years 2008 and 2018.
Find a dictionary in common‐use before 1776 for Great Britain’s English and Colonial‐America’s English Language to properly comprehend The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America, 1776. For this work we use an electronically reproduced copy of the 1756 two‐volume dictionary by Samuel Johnson.
Use a dictionary in common-use of about 1785 for Colonial-America’s English Language for The Constitution for the United States of America, 1790. For this work, we use an electronically reproduced copy of the 1785 two-volume dictionary by Samuel Johnson.
Use similar period dictionaries for other resources, such as The Articles of Confederation, 1778; and The Definitive Treaty of Peace (Treaty of Paris) 1783; and later Amendments to The Constitution for the United States of America.
Definitions for words change over time. Using modern dictionaries for older contracts unlawfully amends the meaning and intent of the older contract. We get the same incorrect results, and for the same reason, if we decide to use word-origin definitions; especially where those words came into use many centuries prior.
C ontext
Context, the circumstances or setting from which a topic can be fully understood and assessed.
When it comes to our nation's two primary documents — The unanimous Declaration of the united States of America and The Constitution for the United States of America — the circumstances and setting to keep in mind is the intent to make it difficult for political corruption to enter government offices, while making it easy for the governed people to remove the corruption when it does enter government.
Two must address two questions:
- Does the government get its power from the people?
- Or: Do the people get our rights from the government?
P erspective
Perspective, a point of view from which or through which things are viewed.
Our nation's two most important government documents — The unanimous Declaration of the united States of America and The Constitution for the United States of America — by 1756 definition for CORPORATION tells us the glass or point of view through which we should view these documents.
CORPORATION: A body politick, authorized to have a common seal, one head or more, able by their common consent, to grant or receive in law, any thing within the compass of their charter: even as one man."The bold, added for emphasis. Also include Politisks and Government snapshots.
GOVERNMENT. 1. Form of community with respect to the disposition of the supreme authority. 2. An established legal authority. 3. Administration of publick affairs.
CORPORATE. United in a body or community.
CORPORATION. A body politick, authorized to have a common seal, one head officer or more, able by their common consent, to grant or receive in law, any thing within the compass of their charter: even as one man.
By definition: Governments are Corporations. Effectively, synonymous.
There are two principle Corporate Documents: The Corporate Founding Charter; and The Corporate By-Laws. The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America is the Founding Charter. At present, The Constitution for the United States of America is the By-Laws. This establishes our correct perspective and context.
A few associated definitions add clarity:
To FOUND. 3. To establish; to erect. 4. To give birth or original to; as, he founded an art. 5. To raise upon; as on a principle or ground.
CHARTER. 1. A charter is a written evidence. 2. Any writing bestowing privileges or rights.
BY-LAW. By-laws are orders made for the good of those that make them, farther than the publick law binds.
CONSTITUTION. 6. Established form of government; system of laws and customs.
In government, as in corporations; the officers get their powers from the owners and controllers responsible for those offices and officers. The officers do not dictate to the owners and controllers what rights the owners and controllers possess with respect to those corporations or with governments.
Governments are political bodies, therefore Corporations, by definition.
We should see our governments as our corporations; the officers as our employees; firing them before their contract-term ends, when their actions require it.
T he P eople's R ights — vs — T he G overnment's P owers
The exercise and security of our rights always comes first. To know this, ask: Have people exercised that right (such as; have people done that act that does not unjustly violate other's rights) — before the law passed to infringe, deny, or disparage that act? If so, that right, that act is protected, off limits to government as it pre‐dates the government‐passed law. This is proved by The Constitution for the United States of America, Amendment 9.
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
In these united States of America, we possess a clearly‐written chain of political authority:
- Starting with the body of the governed people.
- The unanimous Declaration of the united States of America details the terms of that binding agreement that passes to new generations, all of whom possess the right to amend that Declaration as needed.
- A 1756 Common‐Use Dictionary.
- The Articles of Confederation, though eventually replaced by The Constitution for the United States of America, remains useful in properly comprehending certain US Constitution elements (such as, Amendment 2).
- The Constitution for the United States of America, along with all its Amendments.
- A 1785 Common‐Use Dictionary, as well as some newer ones for several Amendments.
The Declaration and The US Constitution specify that our governments must only exercise powers that the constituent body grants to their respective government, by way of a constitution — preferably, a written constitution.
From The Declaration:
—That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed
The Constitution repeats this four different ways:
- Article 1, Section 1
All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.
- Article 6
This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land;
- Amendment 9
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
- Amendment 10
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.
Right up until the time the government gets a constitutional amendment authorizing government power of infringement into a specific right to some identified and limited degree and purpose; The Declaration describes it as Tyranny and Despotism to exercise an ungranted power. The Constitution, Article 3, Section 3 calls it Treason.
Our grant-of-power to our governments with respect to how to allow them to infringe upon any of our rights and why always comes after the fact. The fact that more and more people violate each other's rights and / or property, which may or may not include the use of new technology, does not automatically authorize powers to government.
The united States American learns not only how to identify our rights but also how to recognize when government violates those rights.

- Present our lawful and contractual authority for this action
- Present several constitutional executive actions to quickly repair many corruptions in government
- Present several clarifying constitutional amendments for future generation
- Present several alternatives to many of our government's unconstitutional programs and projects
- Include the executive actions, amendments, and programs in The 20/20 Constitution for "The United States of America"; keeping what's worked, tossing or repairing what's failed, using what's been ignored, and clarifying many items that caused the most questions in the past:
- What's been ignored by the people and our politicians is The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America and The Constitution for the United States of America.
- What's failed is the elected legislative branch — both with and without term limits.
- What's failed is our campaigning, general ballot practices, and vote counting.
- What's failed is the application of our Legislative, Executive, and Judicial systems.
Most of definitions within this Platform come from either the 1756 and the 1785 dictionaries by Samuel Johnson. Because this required action depends on the claim that all Registered Voters do in fact vote, we must first prove that All Registered Voters Do Vote.

Previously; in Context, Perspective, and The People's Rights — vs — The Government's Powers; we see corporation and governments as synonymous. Their structure, nearly identical; though their purpose differs slightly. These also included information about The Declaration and The Constitution as binding contracts.
Focus covers how to count the governed people's votes, which comes from The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America. It is the Founding Charter that, among many other uses, regulates what powers we may of right grant to our government officers and how our votes are supposed to be counted.
The unanimous Declaration provides information for the governed people, who are — when unified, the sovereign power responsible for properly controlling our government officers and the power they exercise.
As long as our nation is the united States of America — this contract remains binding and enforceable among us, the governed people when we act in the capacity as the unified Sovereign Authority over our governments.
We must exercise our contractual ownership of government and control the government officers, who truly are our employees — of whom we may alter their powers, as well as fire and replace them when necessary — and before their elected, contracted term ends.
All this happens when we enforce our combined votes.
The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America remains important and enforceable: Detailing how the people's vote is supposed to be counted — very specific, consent of the governed. This comes from a phrase from a phrase in The Declaraionhmdash;s second paragraph;
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed
That is the part that marks what powers we may grant, as well as how. to count our votes
The remainder of this section details the original meaning of Consent of the governed.
The following Definitions come from a common‐use1756 dictionary by Samuel Johnson:
CONSENT. 1. The act of yielding or consenting. 2. Concord; agreement; accord. 4.Tendency to one point.
To CONSENT. 1. To be of the same mind; to agree. 2.To co-operate to the same end.
In order to declare that a known body of people; in this instance, voters, specifically, registered voters; have consented, more than 50% of that total body of registered voters must consent or the body is not in a condition of minimum agreement.
As they touch on present‐day application for consent; we need compare, first past the post and plurality as vote‐count methods.
With plurality, the practice has been to award success to whomever or whatever on the ballot gets more votes than the opposition. Yes. This does qualify as one of the 1756 definitions for Plurality: List several with emphasis on majority of the total.
The present application of plurality does not qualify as consent of the governed.
One of plurality's 1756 definitions does qualify as consent of the governed. That definition requires a majority of the total.
The other vote-count subject is First past the post. Not even this concept qualifies as Consent of the Governed as required by The unanimous Declaration.
The post established by The Declaration requires the successful balloted item or candidate to be the first past the 50% marker of to total number of registered voter — or fail for lack of consent.
The modern practice has no set post, except for maybe time; where, after a specified time, the one with at least one more vote than any other is declared winner. This is how easy we allow corruption to enter and stay in our government offices.
Because of the contract—s terms— Consent of the governed — we emphasis the Act of consenting.
Regarding yield; we touch on it to mark the difference between not registering and not voting with that of not consenting
YIELD. 5. To allow; to permit. 7. To resign; to give up. 8. To surrender.
To YIELD. 1. To give up the conquest. 4. To concede; to admit; to allow; not to deny
Since the contract requires the majority of registered voters — that known body of voters to consent; any registered voter who does not submit a consenting ballot to the polling station &mdadh cannot
have consented. Non‐consent is a valid countable vote.A counter argument is to have a ballot space for NONE. Unfortunately, in many places where this appears on ballots, those votes are equally ignored as those of voters who refuse to submit a ballot at all.
For a person to yield or abstain, they must withdraw their name from the list of voters or not register in the first place. In this way the qualified to vote, but unregistered citizen has abstained by allowing, not denying, permitting, etc. the majority of the total body of registered voters to decide.
Those who do not register as a voter yield to the decisions of those who do register as voters.
Those registered voters who do not go to the polling stations, simply have not-consented; which differs greatly from that of yielding.
In short, whomever or whatever on the ballot retains responsibility for attaining the consenting votes from the majority of the total number of registered voters — or fail for lack of consent.
The Sovereign Authority cannot be exercised by individuals alone or by less than a simple majority, which is the essence of Mob Rule.
How does the phrase Consent of the governed differ from that of Consent of the majority of those who check in at the polls; or that of whoever or whatever on the ballot gets the most votes?
In relation to the racing phrase, First Past the Post: Consent of the governed takes into account the total body of registered voters, requiring the majority of them to physically consent or the balloted items or candidates must fail for lack of consent. This establishes the post at exactly 50% of the total number of registered voters. The first past that 50%-post — wins.
The consent of the majority of those who check in at the polls, or a plurality, accounts for only the votes of those registered voters who submit a mostly consenting ballot to the polling station (early, absentee, in person, etc.) This shortens the distance to the post, which becomes a bit more fluid,many times not even requiring a majority of those registered voters who submit a ballot.
The current practice of no minimum vote required to win, it allows corruption to simply slime through government doors, contaminate all it touches, remain in office forever, and retire with all the dishonest loot and power with no penalty.
The unconstitutional laws that destroys our vote count and destroys our ability to control government; votes of the tens of millions are suppressed, silenced, and ignored to favor corruption.
When the majority of the total number of registered voters do not submit a ballot, they have in fact agreed to not elect and to not pass anyone or anything that ballot. When as many as 60% to 80% of the total number of registered voters do not even go to the polling station, that majority, who is of the same mind, have not consented to any of the balloted items or candidates, which means that every thing and every candidate must fail for lack of consent.
Just as the reason for a voter's consent is personal to the voter; the reason for their non-consent is also personal to that voter; unless voter-fraud is proved in either instance.
B enefits O f C onsent O f T he G overned V ote‐C ount
- It forces people of various political divides (such as political party, religion, money, sex, age, etc.) to work together to find a candidate common-enough and trusted-enough by the majority of the total number of registered voters to attain their consent. Thus encouraging UNITY among the people — no matter what the previous political divide.
- Corrupt governments fear unified people.
- It saves a lot of vote-counting time. If significantly less than 50% of the total number of registered voters check in at the polling stations — we know automatically that everything and everyone on the ballots failed for lack of consent.
- People who do not want to consent to any thing or any one on the ballot need not even go to the polling station, which saves them time.
- People who want to consent to some thing or some one on the ballot need not stand in line behind non-consenting voters, which saves them time at the polls as well.
- Practicing Consent of the Governed, as designed from 1776, proves the people truly control of our governments for the first time in our nation's history with the least effort required.
- It automatically eliminates most of the corruption in government because those elected will have earned the trust of the majority of voters — knowing that the majority of voters can remove them from office before the end of their contracted term.
- Counting votes in this manner encourages voters to go to the polls if they want some item or candidate to pass — knowing that if they do not consent to that which they want to pass — in not going to the polls their vote, by the default created in 1776, automatically counts against everything and everyone on the ballot.
- The voter registration gets 100% purged more frequently (at least once every three years), so as to remove
- the names of those who died
- the names of those who moved out of the area
- the names of those incarcerated
- the names of those choosing to not participate in voting
- The major bonuses are that it
- protects the rights of those who desire to not participate, by simply not registering as a voter
- does not force those who do not want to consent to anything or anyone on the ballot to check in at the polls to have their non-consent votes properly counted
- protects voters from committing treason at the polls by voting for the lesser of evils by giving aid and comfort to a domestic enemy they consider to simply be a less worse enemy than the others
- does not penalize anyone who does not check in at the polls, which produces poor-quality results. Forced actions rarely produce a quality outcome.
We must first inform each other of the benefits — then, we must implement and enforce them.
V oter S uppression
Within these united States of America, our governments still suppress 60% to 80%+ of the total number of registered voters non- !consent votes. This happens at the city, county, state, and nationally.
There are approximately 25 million united States of America, citizens, ages 12 to 17 years old (as well as many under 12) pay some sort of tax (sales, income, inheritance, etc.) and are prohibited from helping determine how their tax-dollars get used, which is their right and duty, if they choose.
We know these youth qualify as voters, based on the grievance from The unanimous Declaration, 1776 "For taxing us without our consent".
Also: There is an estimated 245 million united States Americans ages 18 and older as of November 2016; about 157 million of whom reported being registered to vote; as of May 21, >2018
Let's crunch some numbers:
- 157,600,000 reported being registers to vote
- 60% to 80% of registered voters do not check in at the polls. That amounts to 94,560,000 to 126,080,000 registered voters who automatically have NOT-Consented and whose voice is suppressed.
- That calculates to about 110,000,000 suppressed voters of those 18 and older
- 25,000,000+ people between ages 12 and 17 who pay some form of taxes, with sales tax and income tax being the two most common for the age-group
- That accounts for about 135,000,000 citizens who are voter-suppressed in these united States of America.

Our Duty as united States Americans comes from The unanimous Declaration of the united States of America, in these words,
all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
Simple. As soon as we see political corruption — we are supposed to immediately unify to stop it.
The Declaration also tells us what we must be willing to risk to protect our rights. These words from The Declaration;
And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.
Clearly, the longer we put off stopping political corruption, the deeper its roots, the stronger its hold.
All that means, is that as a united States American, if I see your rights are unjustly attacked; whether I like you or not &mdadh; and especially if I do not like yoy; t is not my right to help you protect your rights, It is my duty!
You see, if, through my inaction, I tell the government it is O.K. to trample your rights; I also tell the government it is O.K. for them to trample my rights. You see, no matter who you are; no matter what right you exercise (so long as you do not violate other's rights) our list of rights is identical. The rights we choose and the degree we value them, most likely differs — but the list is identical.

What is it? How does it work? What happens when we forget it? & How do we re-establish an Honorable Rule of Law? ....Read More Content Headings
W hat is The Rule of Law?
The Rule of Law: The system society uses to maintain peace, order, and justice; usually verbal or written.
Verbally, similar to the game telephone, where the original message, even when short, just minutes later, gets distorted beyond recognition. Imagine a decades‐ or centuries‐old message.
The clearly written method excels — only when enforced. Without teaching the next generation about that Law, along with the importance of enforcement; the written is little better than the verbal.
H ow The Rule of Law works.
Laws involve two primary parties; those obligated to obey it; and those who enforce it.
Specifically written for these united States of America, CleanHonestGov.Com content easily adapts for the people of any country.
In these united States of America, we have a written Constitutional Rule of Law. It identifies the governed people — when unified — as the Sovereign Authority responsible for enforcing that Rule of Law upon our government officers.
The governed people, in accord with The Rule of Law, grant powers to their government offices, who pass laws.
Securing our rights requires the governed people Standing Against those who violate the Constitutional Rule of Law — by passing and enforcing unauthorized laws.
W hen we forget The Rule of Law.
Presently, these united States of America demonstrates this ugly truth. We allowed our politicians to return us to the same types of Tyranny & Despotism of 1776 — but on steroids. Our nation's fall and our government's failure, from as early as 1787 — went mostly unnoticed.
R e‐establishing an honorable Rule Of Law
This can be done peaceably with votes; so long as the governed people step up to enforce the contractual vote‐count. This must be done soon and often. Otherwise, it requires our bloodshed, similar to 1776.

Without the correct vote–count, it matters little about how many people register as voters — if their votes are incorrectly counted.
Taught that our civic duty is to register and vote as soon as possible, our cast ballots, most times, select a lesser of evils choice. This is not our designed voting system.
Our designed system remains lawfully enforceable, should we ever decide to use it.
Our designed voting system makes it impossible for a registered voter tonot vote.It also makes it unnecessary and undesirable to vote for a "lesser of evils" candidate.

This comparison originates by way of a 1756 common-use dictionary, defining Corporation, Politicks[sic], and Government...
- Corporation; "A body politick..."
- Politicks; "The science of government"
- Government; "Administration of publick affairs"
Though the respective names of the documents differ, commercial corporation and government corporation paperwork and organizational documents are nearly identical in purposes. In no specific order:
The Founding Charter
- Identifies the purpose or need for the Corporation:
- Commercial: Either under served or non existent product or service areas.
- Government: The security of rights
- Source from which Corporate Officers (commercial or government) get their powers:
- Commercial: The registered voting members who control that corporation's activity.
- Government: The registered voting citizen/residents and the taxpayers who fund it, control its direction.
- The voting and vote-counting process:
- Commercial: In person or by proxy, via hard-secret ballot, verbal or raised hands, etc.
- Government: In person or by proxy of an elected officer (such as; City Council, State, and Federal Representatives.
- The types and/or degrees of powers to be granted and/or prohibited to the officers:
- Commercial: Hiring and firing; authority to complete certain specific job-related duties; if the industry requires it, even a list of powers specifically off limits.
- Government: Very similar types of power.
- Remedies for when those corporate officers violate the By-Laws
- Commercial: Much the same as detailed for government, below.
- Government: Alter or abolish the form of government, recall any officer before the end of their contracted term
- What the owners pledge, essentially to each other to keep the respective corporation active.
- Commercial: Generally money skills, personal contacts, other resources.
- Government: Our lives Our fortunes, Our honor.
The By-Laws
- This is the Job Description Sheet for the Key Corporate Officers:
- Commercial: Powers and duties granted to each major corporate office
- Government: Powers granted and/or prohibited to an office or government branch
- Internal checks against the wrongs between major offices:
- Commercial: Hiring and firing
- Government: Impeachments.
T he C onsent O f T he G overned — makes it impossible for a registered voter to not vote.
The phrase, "governments derive their just powers from the governed" tells us how to count our votes, as well as part of the voter qualifications. It also tells of what is not required.
Consent is an action. When there is a known number of people from whom you must get that group's consent; the absolute minimum of that known body is 50%+1 of the total number of registered voter's consent. Otherwise it fails for lack of consent.
The 1756 definition for consent includes; Consent: the act of consenting, agreement, accord meeting of minds.
These definitions, when there is more than one person in the body of voters; unless otherwise stated; must attain more than 50% of the total number registered voter's consent — or fail for lack of consent.
We have two other voting topics; plurality, then first past the post.
With plurality, the practice has been to award success to whomever or whatever on the ballot gets more votes than the opposition. Yes. This does qualify as one of the 1756 definitions for Plurality: List several with emphasis on majority of the total.
The present application of plurality does not qualify as consent of the governed.
One of plurality's 1756 definitions does qualify as consent of the governed. That definition requires a majority of the total.
The other vote-count subject is First past the post. Not even this concept qualifies as Consent of the Governed as required by The unanimous Declaration.
The post established by The Declaration requires the successful balloted item or candidate to be the first past the 50% marker of to total number of registered voter — or fail for lack of consent.
The modern practice has no set post, except for maybe time; where, after a specified time, the one with at least one more vote than any other is declared winner. This is how easy we allow corruption to enter and stay in our government offices.

- Students apply lessons learned to useful new skills, while establishing a work history.
- Inmates also learn marketable skills and work habits. Jail and prison currency, used for budgetary classes while the incarcerated, teach personal resource‐management.
- Military personnel gain live training experiences in place of staged exercises.
- Taxpayers benefit with double and triple the services for the same tax-dollar invested.
- The following projects benefit people duly convicted of criminal activity — as well as people in the military, students, and the unemployed.

To help us right our fallen nation and improve our failed governments, We, the governed people must correct the way we think about government.
We own our governments. The people in government offices (elected, hired, appointed, delegated, contracted, volunteering, etc.) are our employees. They work for us!
We must act like we own our governments and that our government officers truly are our employees. To help with this concept, a common-use dictionary from 1756 defines Corporate, Corporateness, Corporation as:...... Add text of definitions.
Our governments, if they are nothing else; they are Political Bodies. By 1756 definition, governments are corporations
The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America is our ownership charter. The Constitution for the United States of America is the by-laws or Job Description Sheet for our key elected offices (Legislative, Executive, and Judicial).
All People In Government (elected or not, as well as contractors) Are Our Employees, ultimately, managed by our elected officers.
The President is president of "The United States of America", our nation's government. CEO, if you will, over all the subsidiary levels and branches. The office itself, subject to The Supreme Law of the Land
All government officers (legislative, executive and judicial), elected, appointed, police and military — swear oath to support The Constitution for the United States of America. [see US Constitution, Article 6]

Drain Swamp involves correcting the people's Vote Count — removing corrupted government officials from elected office and restores the sovereignty of the governed people's votes by properly counting every registered voter's votes. Detailed below.
This Constitutional Executive Order Supports the US Constitution, Article 6, which names the four elements of The Supreme Law of the Land:
- This Constitution; The Constitution for the United States of America
- and the Laws made in Pursuance thereof; Only the laws made in pursuance of the U.S. Constitution are enforceable — all others are void and without standing and should be amended for compliance, or repealed.
- and all Treaties made, or which shall be made; but only those made under our nation's authority

- shall be the Supreme Law of the Land;
— All government officials in all government levels and branches swear in under Article 6 Oath/Affirmation
The unanimous Declaration of the united States of America, top of Paragraph 2 states,
That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.
With elected government officers, being gran;ted specific government powers, they also must receive the consent of the governed in order to be lawfully sworn in to exercise those powers.
"Consent of the governed" is the majority of the total number of registered voters; defined in 1756 common-use dictionary,
CONSENT. 1. The act of yielding or consenting. 2. Concord; agreement; accord.
To CONSE'NT. 1. To be of the fame mind ; to agree. 2. To co-operate to the fame end.
Any elected officer who did not receive the consenting votes from the majority of the total number of registered voters in their district must vacate that office immediately and until such time the registered voters fill that seat with a candidate who receives the consenting votes from the majority of the total number of registered voters.
All votes for that empty seat must be in the negative, opposing anything presented for vote; until such time the people fill that seat with a candidate who receives the consenting votes from a majority of the total number of registered voters.
Plurality, defined from 1756/8; among other definitions, includes majority of the total.
First past the post, tells of a fixed post, beyond which the first contestant passes, no other can attain. In elections, this also indicates 50% of the total number of registered voters.

This focuses on general crime reduction, which includes entering or staying in these united States of America illegally
Reduce Illegal Immigration & All Other Crime — with proper enforcement of the US Constitution's Amendment 13; laws governing illegal immigration; and if not on the books already, there should be a law that fines businesses and individual who hire people who are in these united States of America illegally. Such penalty may include the loss of perhaps 5% of their business and/or personal assets for the first offense and 10% for the second offense.
The Authority: The Constitution for the United States of America, Amendment 13:
Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation
In supporting the US Constitution, Amendment 13, it is the duty to make certain that all people convicted of crime (including illegal immigration, terrorism, and all other types — minor and major) are duly convicted. This relatively unused tool existed since 1865. A tool designed to nearly eliminate all types of crime.
This Executive Order makes government officials personally accountable as — after-the-fact — accomplices by violating an accused person's (and/or victim's) rights. Violating rights by government officers must pardon many guilty people.
Amendment 13 authorizes Labor Camps and Chain Gangs that require forced labor for long hours of the day, which clarifies that it does not violate Amendment 8's cruel or unusual punishment clause — because of its later ratification date.
Amendment 13's purpose it to make the penalty for the criminal activity far worse than the crime's rewards; thus reducing crime.
We have not properly checked and stopped our government's from abusing this power, violating Amendment 13's "Duly Convicted" clause.
When Amendment 13 gets properly applied, the entire justice system pays for itself — because the labor of those duly convicted cover 100% of that cost.
No walls. No fences. Fewer Border Agents. Less taxes.
An added benefit to this system is that the inmates learn many new lawful skills and hard-work ethics so that when released, they have jobs already lined up as already-trained persons. It also discourages people from life of crime, where catch and release, with eventual amnesty, as well as plea bargains only encourages crime.
From this point on, we will enforce US Constitution, Amendment 13 for the punishment of crime.
Any government officer who violates an accused person's or victim's rights will be tried as an accomplice. This prohibits the use of Plea Bargains, as it violates Amendment 5 and only rewards criminals on the street and criminals in government.
Legislators in all government levels are duty bound to repeal all laws that violate their respective state constitutions, but especially where the local law violates the US Constitution's, Article 6, Supreme Law of the Land.
Law enforcement officers are duty bound to fight any law still on the books that unjustly violates the people's rights.
Judicial officers are required to Try the Laws first to see if they violate any part of the respective constitutions. If so, the accused person must be set free, as well as freeing all others accused and/or convicted of that crime. This does not free persons convicted of violating other laws that comply with the respective constitutions.
If the law is found to comply with the constitution, only then is the accused person tried for violating the law in question.
US Constitution, Article 3, Section 2, "the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to Law and Fact". All courts deal with the Law in all criminal prosecutions. Therefore, all courts are the original jurisdiction as to the Laws and the Facts with respect to those laws passed at their respective political jurisdictions; and the appellate jurisdiction for each lower-level.
Specifically related to Illegal Immigration are penalties against people and businesses that hire illegals as well as penalties against people who enter or remain in these united States of America Illegally. For example:
8 U.S. Code § 1324a. Unlawful employment of aliens — and penalties for hiring them
8 U.S. Code § 1325. Improper entry by alien — penalties for improper entry into these united States
Both those laws support the US Constitution's power‐grant regarding uniform code for immigration and naturalization. Article 1, Section 8.
There are numerous other laws (city, county, state, and federal) that penalizes all other criminal actions that violate the rights and/or property of the people.
Properly enforcing the laws that punish criminal actions in accord with Amendment 13, it reduces all sort of criminal acts.

Stop Unconstitutional Wage Tax — Wages are not income.
The Constitution for the United States of America, Amendment 16 grants to Congress, the power to tax Income — Not Wages:
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.
Congress Possess no authority to define what is income.
With respect to labor, income is "the gain which proceeds from labor" (1898 definition) See image
With respect to labor, wages is "the compensation for labor". (1898 definition) See image
Wages are not income. No place in the US Constitution does it grant a tax on wages and is therefore unjust.
This executive order cannot force people to not donate some of their compensation to government; but can only inform people that it is not required by Amendment 16. Since the employee suffers a loss from the employment, in that they are not paid full value for their labor (proved by the fact that the employer uses the extra to pay business overhead and such) the employee should use their wages as a loss against any TRUE Income they might receive (such as: interest from investment, incoming rents, etc.) as defined under Income. See image
This gives the wage-earner the largest income tax break since passing Amendment 16 and unlawfully enforced against wages. Remember, Congress has no authority to define words used in the Constitution that governs their powers, unless the specific section grants to Congress power to define or redefine those words.

Equality With Income Tax — at present, it is not applied equally and therefore is not equal protection under the law.
The Constitution for the United States of America, Amendment 16 states:
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several states, and without regard to any census or enumeration.
The Constitution does not authorize a census — only an enumeration in Article 1, Section 2 (detailed elsewhere in its own section).
The Constitution for the United States of America, Amendment 14, Section 1,
... nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws
The way our government applies the Income tax — it does so based on a census with regard to how many people are in particular income-brackets. Based on amount of income, which usually is converted to unlawfully include wages; the rate of taxation is not equally applied — thus unequal protection of the laws (tax laws).
This income tax is suspended with this Constitutional Executive Order for these reasons:
It unjustly includes wages, which are not income, because income is the gain which proceeds from labor; where wages is the compensation for labor. The employee almost never is fully compensated for the value of their labor — that is why they usually get hired — so the employer can profit or gain from the labor of the employee,
The tax is not evenly applied to all people based on percentage of income — therefore does not provide equal protection under the law.
Potential amendments to the income tax law might include:
A single percentage rate that is evenly applied to the pauper and the billionaire. This would tax the same (for example 5%) of every dollar of actual income and not tax wages.
To prevent the abuse of overpaying certain persons to hide otherwise taxable income: This can also dictate that wages for unskilled labor will top out at say $8/hour; skilled labor might top out at perhaps $25/hour; professional labor might top out at $125/hour; and then there is the salary of lower, middle, and upper management with annual tops at $100,000/year, $300,000/year, and $1,000,000/year respectively. After the finalized adjustments, anything over those caps would be taxable as income. The reason for these caps are to prevent businesses from paying to themselves as wages and benefits in the multiple-millions of dollars annually to hide taxable income.
In addition, if the salary for the President of "The United States of America" is about $500,000/year plus benefits; any commercial President being paid more than $1,000,000/year becomes excessive in comparison, based on scope of duties and size of organization managed.

The Constitution for the United States of America, Article 6 provides an excellent example on how to do this.
Reduce Nation's Debt — return all unconstitutional debt to those who violated The Constitution for the United States of America, by authorizing it and/or not repealing it.
From The Constitution for the United States of America, Article 6, Paragraph 1; it provides for us the means by which to eliminate all of the unjust debt our government officials passed on to us. We can effectively pass all that unjust debt back onto those who signed, authorizing it, and/or did not repeal it when they had the opportunity while in office.
Article 6, Paragraph 1:
All Debts contracted and Engagements entered into, before the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be as valid against the United States under this Constitution, as under the Confederation.
All that means is that the governed people are not obligated to pay any debts that the present Constitution does NOT specifically authorize our government officers to engage.
This Executive Order refuses to spend public money for any thing The Constitution for the United States of America does not authorize. With the replacement of elected officials with those who attain the majority of the total number of registered voter's consent — much of this can be repealed along with many other unjust government offices and agencies and such not authorized by The Constitution for the United States of America.
All that unconstitutional debt becomes the personal liability of every living member of government who authorized it and/or when in office did not work to repeal it. Thus removing it from The Governed People's account-ledger.

A bolish U nconstitutional C ensus
Most people are so accustomed to doing a census, they never even question its constitutional validity.
Their reasoning?
Get this. It must be authorized because they've been doing it so long.
Stop The Census — The Constitution for the United States of America authorizes an Enumeration — not a census.
Yes; the US Constitution does use both words,census and enumeration.
We do two things here: One, define each term (census and enumeration) as to what they meant in 1785. Then: Determine which one, if not both, that the Constitution actually grants to Congress to use.
Census, does not appear in the 1785 or the 1756 dictionaries. From 1898: 1. (Rom. Antiq.) A numbering of the people, and valuation of their estates, for the purpose of imposing taxes, etc.; — usually made once in five years. 2. An official registration of the number of the people, the value of their estates, and other general statistics of a country.
My emphasis added.
Enumeration, defined from 1785: The act of numbering or counting over; number told out.
We see a rather large difference in the types of information the government can rightly collect.
NOTE: Regarding the Wage-Tax and the Income-Tax; both require the census to determine how much to tax each class of financial-citizen based on how many are low-wage earner, middle-wage earners, and high-wage earners (the same with actual income). Thus the single flat percentage-rate income-tax on true income.
The word census appears in The Constitution for the United States of America in the following location: Article 1, Section 9, Clause 4:
"No Capitation, or other direct, Tax shall be laid, unless in Proportion to the Census or enumeration herein before directed to be taken."
The word census does not appear in The Bill of Rights. The word census appears, is in Amendment 16:
"The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration."
The word enumeration, in addition to appearing in the above locations with the word census, also appears in the following location: Twice in Article 1, Section 2, Paragraph 3..:
"Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers. . . The actual Enumeration shall be made within three Years after the first Meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent Term of ten Years. . . and until such enumeration shall be made. . ."
No place in the US Constitution does it grant to Congress the power to conduct a census — only an enumeration. The power to count the numbers of the people. Not the power to invade the private lives of the people.
Based on the evidence, no more census will be taken. Only an enumeration of the people for the purposes of determining the number of representatives in the House of Representatives in Congress. This will simply amount to collecting the number of the total body of registered voters in each state; because it is the registered voters who select the representative as detailed elsewhere.
Enumeration come from the 1756 common use dictionary.
Census definition comes from an 1898 common use dictionary (as it did not appear in either the 1756 or 1785 common use dictionaries. This goes to show that we must also be cautious of how our dictionaries alter the way we look at our world. Dictionaries are not supposed to change the meaning of law or contracts

Making this a Popular Vote System would only encourage candidates to campaign in states yielding the highest percentage of Popular Votes.
The First-House vote is the popular vote. This requires a candidate to get the consenting votes from the majority of the total number of registered voters.
The Second House is the Electoral Vote. Each Congressional District should have only one Electoral Vote, which is automatically determined by the candidate receiving the majority of the Popular Vote in that Congressional District.
By creating a Two-House Electoral System it would force candidates to campaign in nearly every congressional district; as some electoral votes will no go to any candidate.

Government should only involve public funds on programs and projects that are available to all citizens — so long as the citizen truly is free. That is, not serving any time for any criminal action for which they have been duly convicted..
Government officers should be able to manage such projects and programs at about 50% to 60% less-costly to the people than a private contractor. The government is not in it for profit. The entire body of people within our nation are the investors. They fund these projects and programs with their tax dollars (either directly or by repaying loans for this purpose).
The return to the people is that of the security of our rights. It is for this reason alone that we created our governments — to help us secure our rights.
Our nation's militia, full-time military, as well as all persons serving any time for being duly convicted of a crime should be used to help relieve any disaster within our nation, possessions, territories, allies, and other countries that need assistance. Such use prepares the militia and military for various wartime elements, events, and casualties. The work prepares students and inmates for life when they complete their school or sentence.
The people already fund the militia / military and the prison-system. Why not get as much benefit from them as possible for such tasks as medical transports, fire, police, quicker recovery from disasters, as well as other public services and emergency conditions.
Using the militia and active-duty military keeps the members training as current on equipment operations while making use of their training hours to benefit society. Normally training time is less-productive with empty equipment runs and practice on mannequins.
This converts the Military- and Prison- Industrial Complex into a useful Peace Corp

The added benefits to the people is the reduced load on local aquifers and provides more jobs that produce a charge-for-use that pays for ongoing maintenance. These ongoing jobs can go, in part, to the students and prisoners who helped build them, when they graduate or complete their sentence. Thus, society benefits long-term from the job-training.

With the solid waste and sewage treatment facilities covered elsewhere, utilities (fuel gas, electric, clean water, etc.) come from processing the trash and sewage through incineration and composting. The by-products of clean energy are available to the people at greatly reduced costs — because their tax dollars fund the construction of these facilities.
The aqueduct system mentioned in the floodwaters, when situated properly, provides an opportunity to generate electricity from the natural downhill flow of water through the system. Another set of natural renewable resources.
S olid W aste, S ewage, H azardous, & O ther W astes — 100% No Landfills
When learning from Nature, we re-purpose and reprocess all waste toward other uses.
Every State will have at least one, 100% waste recovery and reuse facility processing all wastes from residential, commercial industrial, biological, institutional, governmental, and other source waste generators, including the emptying of all known landfills. States with larger populations will have more than one facility depending on populations and tonnage generated.
Each smaller processing facility handles at least 5,000 tons per hour with centralized facilities that process at least 50,000 tons per hour. Smaller communities may need only a centralized transfer station, to save money on equipment that may otherwise be rarely used.
Basic Stages recover the non-burnable, non-compost, and / or hazardous items as early in the process as possible (preferably at the source generating the waste (residential, commercial, etc.), then on the collection vehicle, also at the receiving stations) to prevent contaminating materials.
Source separating materials is preferred in the collection stage from business and residents. From there, recovering for immediate reuse those items that are clean (such as papers, cardboard, plastics, etc.) for processing to return to industry for reuse. Soiled papers and plastics can be used in composting and / or fuel-pellet production for waste-to-energy, within an entirely enclosed operation that recovers all exhaust gasses and ash. This is a green renewable resource.
Items such as grass, leaves, brush, food waste, etc. are used for composting (with or separated from the sewage sludge and other wastes). In either instance the composting method will determine whether fuel gases can be recovered for other uses (another green renewable resource).
Plant-, microbe-, other soil-, water-, air-life and minerals process toxic materials. By finding the critters that thrive in the substance and produce an inert or otherwise usable by-product, this reduces the amount of hazardous waste to deal with and creates other useful industries.
No industry should be commercialized until after we know what to do with all the waste products; returning them to manufacturing, or neutralizing them for return to the soil, water, and / or air so that they are cleaner than that required for a typical organic farm.

This encourages maximum productivity, coordinating crops, rotation, along with other related events maintaining maximum soil fertility.
In the final three or four stages of the totally enclosed waste-treatment facilities mentioned above, some of the useful by-products include clean soil, clean water, and clean air that are safer, cleaner, and more beneficially lively than found in many organic gardens. These final stages produce water-, land-, and air-livestock and edible plant and food products to feed many local people. Because of its enclosed nature, it can produce what would be considered exotic foods.

This Trust System replaces many government assistance programs (such as loans for housing, education, business; as well as welfare, medical insurance, etc.)
All government assistance and present-day welfare programs roll into this Personal Trust Account program that is initially funded by the parents for each of their children.
It works as described below.
From birth up to age fourteen, the parent / guardian / s contribute $100 / month for each child they birth and / or adopt, and / or foster. Any money the child receives through chores, allowances, gifts, inheritances, etc.; 90% of those funds are deposited into the account.
From age fourteen through eighteen (and maybe twenty-four), the parents continue the $100 or more per month for each child and the child contributes 90% of all the money they earn (by this time probably working a part-time job) and / or money received as gifts inheritance, etc. during this time. Teaching the child to live on far less than they receive, and how to manage their money (saving for large-ticket items, borrowing from and repaying themselves with interest helps make themselves richer and not the banks).
After age eighteen (maybe twenty-four) only the child, as adult, contributes at least 20% of their gross receipts (gifts, earnings, and income, etc.) This replaces the unconstitutional personal wage tax (falsely called an income tax on wages).
The government, subject to individual account‐holder voter approval, may use deposits to establish city enterprise funds (such as utilities, solid waste, sewage treatment, etc.), as well as provide other public services required to adequately defend the citizen’s rights and to encourage business. The government pays 5% compounded annual interest on funds borrowed from these accounts.
Individuals may invest in business ventures to attract jobs. The businesses would also repay these funds at a greater interest rate than the government. The body of investors have a 51% controlling vote as to whether the government officers may invest any of these Personal Trust Account funds in a given project within their political jurisdiction or not.
From birth through age twenty-four; the parents, as initial Trust Managers, may borrow against this account to benefit the child named on the account. The parents must repay these funds at the same interest rate or greater than the interest rate the government pays into the account when borrowing from these funds.
If the child dies before assuming control over the Trust account, the funds revert to the parents/guardians who contributed; or as the child details in their will, if they have one drawn.
The child, once they either turn eighteen (maybe twenty-four or emancipate themselves before) then, become Trust Managers and they may borrow against their account for education, housing, finance a business, medical uses, or for whatever use they desire.
The child, as adult must also repay what they borrowed against their account at the same rate or greater than the interest rate the government pays when it borrows from the account. Repayment into the account should be done until the account holder reaches retirement age (of about 55 years or older – if the account holder desires).
Any unpaid funds reduce the benefits from the account that the individual may use later in life.
If the individual drains their account, becomes homeless, needs medical care, and such — the government has absolutely no other services or welfare. The individual must rely on other people and charitable organizations around them for assistance. It is not the duty of government to take from one person and give it to another.
In practice, by the time the child reaches age twenty-four years, their balance will have roughly reached $130,000. This assumes that the child from age 14 through 18 works and contributes $336 / month, in addition to the $100 / month that their parents contribute. This also assumes that as an adult the individual earns at least $15 / hour, works at least forty hours per week, and the individual contributes 20% or more of their total wages, gifts, and income. That or works a few more hours to make up the difference.
This program replaces the presently unlawful unconstitutional wage-tax disguised as an income tax. It also replaces Social Security and other welfare programs, government financed education, government funded mortgages, and others.
By the time a person reaches age 55, so long as they have either not borrowed against their account, or have repaid all borrowed funds with interest, and / or successfully invested some of the Trust's Funds; the individual’s account balance is roughly $780,000 from which they may use for retirement or in any other way they desire. At 5% interest; the individual receives over $39,000 / year. Add to this, a $10,000 / year gradual draw-down (if needed or desired) against the balance for the next fifty or so years, it provides a $49,000 gradually decreasing annual living fund.

This replaces nearly all government assistance programs and encourages the individual to take full responsibility for their financial life.
Commercial & Industrial Development & Investments — Community responsibility for local industry pollution and jobs
Our nation's people may use the funds in their Individual Trust Accounts (described elsewhere) to encourage commercial and industrial development in their locality (such as, city, county, state, nation, or planet) to increase local jobs and other local opportunity. The local investors should retain majority ownership and control over business and industry, preventing industrial air, water, or soil pollution and whether or not the industry leaves the community.
The majority of the total body of registered voters must approve of the business locating within its political jurisdiction. Outside investors and businesses cannot locate within a community without the direct-consent of the people of the community as detailed in the consent of the governed content in the Total Recall Proposed Constitution.
Investing the Individual Trust Funds in this way provides a greater return on individual investments than projected in its own section. As an added bonus, it also allows the community to retain those businesses locally — preventing them from relocating and taking the jobs with them, without the community’s consent. The governmental bodies may borrow from the Individual Trust Funds — but only with the consent from each account-holder needed to finance the government project. Otherwise these funds are off-limits for government use.
No industry should be commercialized until all waste material has a new use and / or is completely neutralized and not toxic.

The Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America" should serve as an instruction manual and educational tool, passing to future generation, instructing them of the lawful and contractual process for controlling their government officers. ....Read More Front Material about this constitution
A bout T he F ounding C harter & C onstitution F or " T he U nited S tates of A merica"
This Constitution easily adapts for different government levels from cities and towns, counties, states, even foreign countries. It identifies the Sovereign Authority over our governments at every level. It details the powers for each of the three primary government branches from the law making (legislative), law enforcing (executive), and arbitrator (judicial). It successfully solves the relationship between the government and the governed, not only as individuals but also as a unified body of voters.
A written constitution should exist for every government level. It should detail exactly what powers the governed people grant to their government, which by degree may vary from this constitution. Thus, it eliminates most of the guesswork about what powers exercised by government are just and honorable, as well as which powers are corrupted and tyrannical. The powers granted must not violate The unanimous Declaration of the united States of America.
When we, the governed people, being the keepers of our Liberty, fail to properly maintain our governments, others move in to use our government for treachery against us. They will promise us false hope so that they might steal the fortunes of our Liberty — the freedom to exercise our right and duty to control our own government's powers.
Far too many citizens do not properly comprehend our most important right — our right to alter, to abolish, or to throw off our corrupted forms of governments — inclusive of the officers therein, so that we may better protect our other rights. Many people never recognize such necessity when it surfaces. The design for The 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for “The United States of America” is to make it easier for our citizen-residents to recognize such necessity and detail the path by which we may lawfully correct our governments.
Correcting government is best when done early and often when it costs less financially and less in bloodshed.
Defective governments leave the governed with few options; modify that Form of Government, if possible; when necessary, replace it. That, or learn to live with the corrupted government, which usually gets worse when ignored.
As the governed, we must frequently and thoroughly inspect our governments for signs of corruption. When found, we must swiftly correct it. This does not mean each individual spends vast hours digging through mountains of papers and laws. At the very least, it requires the resident-citizen to fight the enforcement of unjust laws that may pass when a previous generation got off track. Failure in this aspect allows corruption in government to grow.
If we, or our posterity, fail in this, our Duty — our neglect allows political corruption to ravage and destroy our nation, our states, our counties, and our cities and tows from within.
The number of States whose citizens remain contractually bound by our nation’s Founding Charter, The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America, presently contains fifty States. We know that all the new states are bound to The unanimous Declaration because of The Constitution for the United States of America, Article 6, which includes it by reference as "the authority of the United States". This contract lets us know when it becomes necessary for us to alter, abolish, and / or to throw off our corrupted Forms of Government, which also applies to corrupt government officials
Additionally, perhaps more importantly, The unanimous Declaration is the Founding Charter for our governments and every State that joins, automatically joins as an equal twit. all States.
Our present government officials repeat the list of abuses and usurpation detailed in our nation’s Founding Charter, which also serves as the Founding Charter for our governments. Those usurpations and abuses of power identify the same type of tyranny and absolute despotism over us at present that existed for our nation’s founders in 1776.
By their corruptions, our governments demand our immediate action to right our nation from that political abuse. For these reasons, we create The 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America" to better preserve our rights through adherence to our nation’s Founding Charter, The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America.
UNIFIED DIVERSITY
To unite consists of more than merely agreeing.
To unite requires that we work together for the common objective.
While Unity increases our strength, Diversity increases our ability to survive a wider variety of attacks.
FIRST, WE TRY — THEN, WE TRUST
§1 First, We TRY
Prospective citizen-residents enter on a trial basis as temporary resident-citizens. Existing, permanent resident-citizens of the respective local-community (city/town) test the new person's character and their knowledge as it relates to Self-Governance. During this time, the prospective citizen-resident investigates these united States of America's people and government to make certain they want to make these united States of America their home.
Lawful entry into our nation must be in accord with The Uniform Rule of Immigration and Naturalization, established within this constitution.
§2 Then, We TRUST
Each temporary resident must request to become a permanent resident. The existing body of Registered Voters (in the majority of the total) grant permanent residency, after which time the new permanent resident may register as a voter in these united States of America.
Registration is the application by a permanent resident citizen to become a member of the existing body of registered voters. The existing body of registered voters considers each request from prospective new voters, tests the prospective voter about their knowledge of Self-Governance concerning this founding carter and constitution, as well as other lower level constitutions; and if the prospective voter passes, the registered voters admit the new voter into the registry as detailed in this Constitution.
P reamble T o T he 2020 C onstitution
We; the governed people, with three-fourths of the total body of registered voters for these united States of America in each of three-fourths of all the states, territories and possession within our nation (in accord with the 1787/90 US Constitution and this, The 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America"); in order to improve our unification and diversity, establish and maintain justice, ensure domestic tranquility among the States, provide for our nation's common defense, promote the general well- being of these united States of America, and strengthen our diversified unity; we encourage socially responsible self-sufficient resident- citizens, as individuals.
Each citizen resident is responsible for their own actions, to defend the rights of others who are unjustly attacked; and as the body of registered voters, we are responsible for our government. We reserve to ourselves, as a unified body of registered voters, the power to recall any government official, adjust the government’s powers, and undo any government act or decision, the process, as detailed within this Constitution for our respective government levels.
A rticle 1: N aming A nd O rganization
§1 Naming
Our sovereign, independent, and free nation's name is — the united States of America [sic]. This is proved by The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America.
Our nation's government's name is — "The United States of America"[sic]. This is proved in The Articles of Confederation, Article 1, our nation’s first constitution. That name has not yet been altered.
§2 Motto
“Unified Diversity: First We Try — Then We Trust”
§3 Sovereign, Independent, & Free
The powers for "The United States of America", the government, are limited to only those powers granted from within this Constitution, in accord with this phrase from The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America — To secure our rights government derive their just powers from The Consent of the Governed.
1 Of Sovereignty
In these united States of America, the nation, the sovereign authority from which all political powers originates over our governments, is the governed people. — To be specific, that is at least, two-thirds majority of the total number of registered voters in their respective political jurisdictions; which, under The 1790 Constitution for the United States of America, is at present considered the veto-proof majority. Any political power, exercised by the body of the governed people in accord with The unanimous Declaration, may veto any government power or act of government.
It was never intended that it be easy for government to acquire powers. With this constitution, all balloted items and candidates must acquire the consenting votes from two-thirds majority of the total number of registered voters in order to pass or be voted into office.
2 Of Independence
Independence is being free of the unjust interference from any other country, nation, or people.
Our independence in no way frees us from obeying the honorable lawful obligation in treaties that are made in accord with The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America and The 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America"; which includes the terms of treaties lawfully made in accord with prior constitutions (The 1778 Articles of Confederation and The 1790 Constitution for the United States of America). A change in our Constitutions does not free us from the terms of prior treaties, unless made contrary to the Authority of The unanimous Declaration, or when successfully renegotiated.
3 Of Freedom
Freedom relates to our lawful right as individuals to do as any other individuals may of right do.
With respect to the powers granted to our government by our resident-citizens, the rights and powers exercised by individuals, as well as granted to our governments must be in accord with the limited terms detailed within The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America.
A rticle 2: A bout F ounding C harter F or O ur N ation A nd O ur G overnments
Because of its continued importance, The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America is our nation’s Founding Charter, as well as the Founding Charter for our governments, as it details the source and types of powers our governments may acquire. It applies to every government level, which remains subject to the Sovereign Authority detailed within The Declaration.
For ease of reading and reference, the numbered paragraphs below have section headings to clarify how it relates to the whole. Bold text is added to emphasize certain elements. In addition, Modal pop-ups appear to define original meanings fro a 1756 common-use dictionary.
The purpose for including The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America as part of this Constitution is because our nation's total body of registered voters, as the governed, becomes our own direct bicameral legislative body, detailed later within this Constitution.
Regarding the probable alterations to or replacements of this Constitution in the future, our nation’s Founding Charter and the Founding Charter for our governments, The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America, remains a separate unaltered contract. To lawfully amend The unanimous Declaration, every State must ratify those alterations.
Because our nation grew from the original thirteen States to the fifty we presently have; we deliberately replace the word “thirteen” with "fifty" in The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America. At present, there are fifty Free, Sovereign, and Independent States unified under The unanimous Declaration.
With respect to what kinds of powers we can grant to our government levels and branches, as well as how our votes must be accounted for, all of our citizens remain honor bound to The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America and the pledge detailed at the end of The Declaration.
§1 The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America (1776)
1 The Declaration of Necessity for Self-Governance
When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of Nature and of Nature's god entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
2 We All Possess the Same List of Rights
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
3 The Sole Purpose for Our Governments
That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men,
4 Source of Government's Power
deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,
5 When Governments Violate The Constitution
That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.
6 If It's Still Working — Don't Replace It or Break It
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes;
7 Warning Against Getting Comfortable with Government Violations
and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
8 Our Right & Duty to Stop Corruption
[Not if] But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.
9 Introduction To List Of Political Powers Prohibited Everywhere In Our Nation
Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having indirect object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world.
10 Refusal to pass Constitutional Laws to Help Secure Our Rights
He has refused his assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
11 Interfering With Other Lawful Government Officers
He has forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
12 No Equality Of Law
He has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of representation in the legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
13 Manhandling And Manipulating Legislators
He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
14 Dissolving Representative Government
He has dissolved representative houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
15 Return Of Legislative Power To People
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the legislative powers, incapable of annihilation, have returned to the people at large for their exercise; the state remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.
16 Reverse Problems With Immigration & Naturalization
He has endeavored to prevent the population of these states; for that purpose obstructing the laws for naturalization of foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands.
17 Obstructing Justice
He has obstructed the administration of justice, by refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers.
18 Controlling Other Government Officers Money And Firing
He has made judges dependent on his will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.
19 Too Much Government
He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance.
20 Standing Armies Among Us
He has kept among us, in times of peace, standing armies without the consent of our legislatures.
21 Military Independent of Civil Power
He has affected to render the military independent of and superior to the civil power.
22 Getting Foreign Governments To Violate Our Rights
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation:
23 Quartering Troops Among Civilians
For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
24 For Protecting the Troops and Other Government Officers Who violate Our Rights
For protecting them, by a mock trial, from punishment for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these states:
25 Cutting Off Trade
For cutting off our trade with all parts of the world:
26 Taxing Us Without Our CONSENT
For imposing taxes on us without our consent:
27 Denying Jury Trails In Any Criminal Case
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of trial by jury:
28 Trying Us Outside Of Our Nation's Boundaries
For transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offenses:
29 Abolishing Our System Of Laws
For abolishing the free system of English laws in a neighboring province, establishing therein an arbitrary government, and enlarging its boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these colonies:
30 Trashing Our Declaration & Constitution
For taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws, and altering fundamentally the forms of our governments:
31 Faking Reasons To Trash Our Constitutions
For suspending our own legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
32 Waging All Sort Of Wars Against Us
He has abdicated government here, by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against us.
33 Destroying The Lives Of The People
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.
34 Encouraging Lawlessness By Rewarding Crime
He is at this time transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation.
35 Coercing Citizens To Accuse Others Of Crimes
He has constrained our fellow citizens taken captive on the high seas to bear arms against their country, to become the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themselves by their hands.
36 Encouraging Domestic Unrest Among Us
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction, of all ages, sexes and conditions.
37 Petitions For Redress Answered With Injuries
In every stage of these oppressions we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury.
38 Unfit to Rule Free People
A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a Free People.
39 Trying To Awaken Others To Political Abuses
Nor have we been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity.
40 Our Nation's Entire War, Trade, And Foreign Policy — No Offensive Wars
We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace, Friends.
41 Description Of Representative Limits
We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, assembled, appealing to the supreme judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the name, and by authority of the good people of these colonies,
42 The Actual Declaration Of Independence — The New System Of Government Was Already Established In Second Paragraph
solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be Free and Independent States;
43 Absolutely Every Political Connection With Great Britain Cut — Including Common Law and Legislating from the Bench with Precedence — even slavery
that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved;
44 All States Were Then and Are Now; The Same As Any Foreign Country
and that as Free and Independent States, they have full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce, and to do all other acts and things which Independent States may of right do.
45 Our Nation's TRUE Pledge
And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.

46 Closing Comments
Item 45, above, ends The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America, 1776. The representative’s signatures for the Founding Generation, excluded. The 1776 Founding Charter for the nation of these united States of America stands of its own accord. Its inclusion in this Constitution is so that it might strengthen our resolve as active participants in regulating the powers of our governments and not subjecting ourselves to any government that unjustly infringes upon our rights or that of our neighbor’s rights.
§2 Summary of the Founding Charter
These are some of the other reasons why The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America remains valuable for us today. It is:
1 A lawful contract that...
...created the nation, the united States of America out of those former British Colonies.
...separated the political powers of the united American Colonies, as, the united States of America from those of Great Britain.
...declares that the consent of the governed is required to create and grant powers to honorable governments.
...names the people's most important right and duty as that of unifying with others for properly controlling our government’s powers.
...defines representative power, prohibiting Representatives from casting a personal vote in public office that may be contrary to the respective constitution and / or the will of the majority of their registered voter – constituent body.
...defines citizenship responsibility and limits the types of powers voters may rightly grant to their governments.
...defines a tyranny as any political action that violates the people's rights and / or violates a written constitution.
...lists powers specifically prohibited for our governments to exercise.
2 A letter to...
...the King of Great Britain.
...the world.
...the people of the then-new united States of America.
...the Founders' posterity — us.
...all who serve in our governments.
...all other governments and others that might do business with our governments.
3 A treasure map that...
...identifies our rights and duty to protect and preserve our rights, which are our national treasure.
...identifies all of us as our treasure's guardians.
...lets us know how we might lose our treasure.
...informs tyrants how to steal our treasure, if we get too comfortable.
...tells us how we might re-acquire our treasure when we or a prior generation loses it.
...warns patriots of potential dangers.
4 Summarizes human and government nature, as it identifies...
...human nature to tolerate abuses.
...rights common to all humans.
...the government's natural lean towards tyranny.
...how adversity motivates us to action.
...how and why we should frequently exercise proper control over our government.
§3 About The Definitive Treaty of Peace (Paris 1783)
With respect to The Definitive Treaty of Peace (Paris 1783) Article 1st states:
His Brittanic Majesty acknowledges the said United States, viz., [listing each State] to be free sovereign and Independent States; that he treats with them as such, and for himself his Heirs & Successors, relinquishes all claims to the Government, Propriety, and Territorial Rights of the same and every Part thereof.This evidence that proves the united States of America, the nation, is a Sovereign Entity. Great Britain, publicly and in accord with the law of nations, acknowledges / recognizes — as opposed to grants — that the former British Colonies are Free and Independent States, absolved of all political connection with Great Britain. No more British Common Law. No more use of court precedence after 1776.
With this Treaty, the united States of America successfully defended their / our independence on the battlefield-court; a war that could have been resolved in the courts of law; only if both parties respected the courts.
Had Great Britain granted our independence, they may of right take it back. To acknowledge we have that sovereignty, is to admit we rightly posses it.
A rticle 3: D efinitions
When defining words used in The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America, we must use a dictionary available for common use, printed several years prior to the proposal and signing of that contract (such as using a 1756 dictionary, which is prior to 1776 ratification date). Apply this practice also when comprehending the content of any of the prior constitutions and amendments.
The following definitions apply in such manner to amend prior enacted laws as well as apply to laws enacted hereafter. Consistency in our laws in all levels and branches of our governments assures the people of equality and justice no matter where they travel within these united States of America. All laws not re-instated must be unenforceable and void of power. All laws re-instated must fully comply with this Constitution’s Article 4, Section 6 and receive a Date of Reinstatement and an Expiration Date, at which time it must be re-examined and renewed, or it naturally dies, being unenforceable.
Any person jailed or otherwise incarcerated for having violated a law that, when modified, would have freed that person from that crime; that individual must be released from that sentence — but this does not touch any other penalties where that person was duly convicted.
§1 Crime
If the Legislative Branch creates a law, ordinance, or other prohibition against any action that carries with it any form of penalty (monetary, incarceration, or any other form of penalty); committing that prohibited act is a crime, no matter how minor or severe the action or the penalty. It is not a crime to violate a law that violates this Constitution.
§2 Citizen (see also, Resident)
A citizen is any person born of a mother who is already a lawful citizen of any of these united States of America (including territories and possessions); as well as person’s who lawfully naturalized into these united States of America. The birth mother’s citizenship determines the automatic citizenship of the child. The birth mother’s citizenship is more certain and easily proved than the biological father, which may be added at that families expense of DNA testing.
§3 Contract
A Contract, as used in this Constitution, includes the lawful, written Chain-of-Authority of ratified contracts. The foundation for all government action originates with The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America.
Our nation's constitution, The 2020 Founding Charter and Constitution for "The United States of America" is the umbrella constitution for all laws and all other constitutions respective to all subordinate political jurisdictions (inclusive of federal, state, county, and city/town). Each group of smaller political jurisdictions possess authority to regulate the powers of the larger political jurisdictions, as detailed within this Constitution.
§4 Impartial
With respect to Impartial Jury both (or all) parties of a suit must participate in selecting the entire panel from which the final jury is selected. Such original selection of the larger panel might include simply throwing darts at the registration of resident / citizens in that political jurisdiction; or simply going outside the courthouse or other public place to select the required larger panel from random people on the street (whether citizen or not). Citizenship, residency, or even whether or not a person has registered as a voter must not exclude a person from serving on a jury — only whether both parties can agree as to whether that person is impartial with respect to the trial at hand.
§5 Legislation
The written record by which to fund the constitutional government activities; regulate the activity, property, and / or finances of the people who unjustly infringe upon the rights of others; to punish them for violating the rights or the property of others; as well as stop unjust political powers by amending this Constitution as needed, or by repealing or amending any law. This also includes the creation of government projects, programs, and enterprise funds in accord with The unanimous Declaration; as well as ways to promote and encourage people to be beneficial to their communities.
§6 People, Person
People or Person refers only to a flesh and blood, biological human. The unified Body of Governed Resident-Citizens is the Sovereign Authority responsible for controlling their respective governments (city, county, state, nation). The voice of the Sovereign Authority is determined foremost by the content in the respective constitutions (city, county, state, nation) and then by the vote of the people which requires, at the very least, a two-thirds, veto-proof majority of the Total Number of Registered Voters to Consent before the balloted item or candidate become officially enforceable or elected. The laws enacted in accord with this Constitution regulate interactions among the people, with the intent to reduce rights-violations.
§7 Political Jurisdiction
A Political Jurisdictions is the geographical area that a government office and level of government serves (city, county, state, nation) and the powers of that government. The city, town, or village wherein a person maintains their permanent lawful voting residence is the smallest political jurisdiction. Counties, States, and national unions are progressively larger political jurisdictions.
§8 Public Trust
The Public Trust consists of The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America, The 2018 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America", the respective State Constitutions, County Constitutions, and the City Constitutions, as well as all legislation that the citizens enact in accord with this Constitution and how it defines The Supreme Law of the Land.
Additionally, the Public Trust includes campaign promises the official made while campaigning, so long as those promises do not violatethe named constitutions or laws made in pursuance thereof. This does not authorize the elected official to implement those campaign promises under the guise of manifest destiny or voter mandates until authorized by appropriate constitutional authority.
§9 Representative
In an effort to reduce political corruption and save money, the People are our own Direct Bicameral Legislative Branch, detailed later.
Representatives include those persons elected into the executive and judicial offices, as well as others with whom elected officials appoint, hire, or contract with to perform work authorized by constitutional legislation. All those who represent the People willingly bind themselves by oath to uphold, support, and defend this Constitution against enemies both foreign and domestic, as well as the other named contracts in the defense of the governed people and their rights, which also includes the rights of foreign visitors within this Constitution's jurisdiction (foreigners possess no voting powers within these united States of America.
§10 Resident-Citizen:
A Resident-Citizen of these united States of America is a person who is lawfully a citizen of the united States of America and a citizen of one of the States in this union where they maintain their sole lawful residency for more than three consecutive calendar years and from where, as a lawful citizen, they cast all ballots. A person with more than one residence location must choose from which one they maintain their voter-status. This is to reduce the probability of people with multiple residents from casting more than one ballot in any given polling.
With respect to Possessions, Territories, Colonies, Tribes and political jurisdictions that our nation's laws tend to govern, those political jurisdictions must work their best to become versed in the political customs of our nation, via this Constitution within three years or be cut free to fend for itself, as an independent political body. We will not subject any political jurisdiction to the same government corruption as was present in 1776 when these united States were the colonies of Great Britain.
§11 Speedy
With respect to the timing for trials; as soon as the government accuses and/or arrests someone of a crime, the government admits that they possess sufficient evidence to obtain a guilty verdict. If the defense is ready to prove their innocence — that day – the impartial jury trial must take place that same day. Otherwise, in order for the government to hold any person in jail until trial for any type of crime, a Grand-Jury indictment must authorize the incarceration with a specified reason for the incarceration, as well as the limited time the person can be held until trial, which must not to exceed fourteen days. If the jury finds the accused person not-guilty or innocent, the accused person must be compensated for each hour detained, up until released and property returned (detailed in others parts of this Constitution).
§12 Treason
Treason consists of offenses against this Constitution or against the other contracts specifically named herein. The contracts represent and serve as the Sovereign Power over the respective levels of government. Betrayal of this public trust is treason. No person may be convicted of treason unless; on the testimony of at least two witnesses to the same overt act and who testify to the treason in an open and public court before an impartial jury; or on long-form confession by the accused while in the presence of a jury in an open and public court. All references to a jury within this Constitution are the same as detailed within the Judicial Branch later in this Constitution.
Absolutely no government official may escape justice because of the office they hold. They must be made to answer for their actions, when criminal; the same as any other person.
§13 Tyrant, Tyranny
Tyranny or Tyrant is any government official or political office that incorporates one or more prohibited political actions listed in the grievances outlined in The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America, or violates any part of this Constitution or the other contracts specifically named in this Constitution that follow a strict line of authority into The unanimous Declaration.
A rticle 4: L egislative B ranch
The Legislative Branch effectively directs the powers of the Executive and Judicial Branches by creating guide-laws and prohibitory-laws that the government officials enforce upon the resident-citizens and visitors (foreign and domestic). Guide-laws are suggestions but hold no penalty if not obeyed. These laws, such as speeding and parking, guide an individual’s actions in public.
Prohibitory-laws punish those convicted of committing the prohibit act, such as murder, robbery, perjury, and other acts that violate other people’s rights. This constitution must authorize these types of law.
§1 The Rule of Law
The Rule of Law, within these united States of America, is government according to The Supreme Law of the Land, as detailed within The 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America" and the legislation enacted in accord with this Constitution. Enacted legislation in honorable governments originates by way of the authority of the governed people’s unified voice; which includes The unanimous Declaration — so long as the two-thirds majority of the Total Body of Registered Voters Consent to grant those powers to government.
§2 Legislative Origins
Any lawful resident, whether temporary, permanent, registered voter, or not may propose legislation. However, all legislative votes begin in the First House of the smallest level political jurisdictions, which are the cities, towns, and villages, regardless of the larger political jurisdictions that the proposed legislation intends to govern.
§3 Possession of Legislative Power
Legislative Power resides with the lawful permanent resident-citizens who are qualified and have registered as a voter. Two-thirds majority of the total body of registered voters, who, according to the rules of this Article, collectively enact all legislation, determine the fair penalty for punishing offenders in order to discourage future violation, as well as determine the manner and amount needed to fund implementation. The reason for the two-thirds consent requirement is to make it difficult for government to acquire power. It should also make it difficult for the people to grant frivolous or light and transient powers to government.
For public safety, we require tests before operating vehicles on public roads, railways, airways, and waterways; as well, we require weapons owners to pass tests indicating knowledge of proper use, storage, and weapon maintenance. For the same reasons of public safety, unity, and honesty in government within these united States of America we test people before admitting them into a community’s permanent resident-citizen status. A later test and vote determines whether they may become registered as voters. The purpose for testing by the existing body of voters is to assure that potential new voters are as well-informed as possible, protecting the established resident-citizen body.
1 Temporary Citizen-Residency
As indicated here, “The United States of America”, the government, publishes all government documents solely in the united States of America, the nation's version of the English language. A person and / or their family may become temporary residents if they are lawful united States citizens, able to publicly communicate in the united States version of the English language. If the person cannot publicly communicate in the united States version of the English language, how secure are existing citizen’s rights when new voters do not properly comprehend that for which they vote?
The temporary residency period and delaying voting rights is security for existing resident-citizens. It makes it difficult for new citizen-residents to undermine a community’s customs with their vote while being a short-term resident.
2 Permanent Residency
This mostly applies to cities and towns with respect to an element of the Uniform Code of Immigration and Naturalization.
After being three years a temporary resident-citizen, the individual may petition local-resident registered voters for permanent residency. Once the individual passes the test and receives two-thirds or more consenting votes, the individual becomes a permanent resident. This is a public test, with records kept concerning the individual’s knowledge about The 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America" and other contracts mentioned in this Constitution. These records are useful when removing a resident from the voter registry for trying to pass laws that violate the contracts listed herein. The three-year delay also allows the registered voters to better asses the character of the individual before accepting them as a permanent resident and potential voter.
3 Registering as a Voter
When accepted into the Registration of Voters by two-thirds of the total body of existing registered voters, the individual must sign, at the bottom of, and agreeing to the terms of The 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America", in accord with our nation’s pledge, before they begin voting.
This registration process registers the new voter’s vote in the default voting position of non-consent, which was created in 1776 with The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America. If the voter desires some balloted item or candidate pass – the voter must check in at the polling station to convert their vote to consent to some item or candidate on the ballot.
4 Exclusions From Voting
Any person serving any part of a sentence for which they were duly convicted, as well as any person receiving government benefits, programs, contracts, or bail-outs; must not vote until after they have been free of criminal activity or off of such assistance for more than one year after release from sentence or discharge from government assistance. This subsection serves as lawful notice to all resident-citizens that they forfeit their right to vote, along with other specific rights they may have violated when committing a crime. In this way it encourages the voting body to be as respectful of other’s rights and to not be able to vote to themselves additional benefits out of other people’s pockets.
5 Consent-Voting
To cast a Consenting Vote, the voter must show a hard-copy Voter-ID issued by their local community, which must contain the voter’s recent photo (36 months or newer), with an identified hand, digit print for comparison against File Transparencies used by voter-Sign-In personnel at the polling station. Sign-in photo and digit-print, alongside the photo and check-in digit-print appear on overhead projectors above the respective sign-in clerks. In this way, it is a quality-control check by the people to keep the polling stations as honest as possible.
When presenting the ballot for the transparent tumbler, every ballot must contain the same finger digit-print as on the Photo-ID ( the print applied at the time the voter deposits the ballot into the tumbler) and date-time stamped on the ballot. In this way, if someone challenges a specific voter, officials withdraw the ballot until finalizing the challenge. There are no private votes on public matters. We know this because of our nation's pledge to each other; our lives, our fortunes, and our honor.
All votes, by default, are not- or non-consenting until the registered voter casts a consenting ballot at the polling station during the designated polling time. If a registered voter fails to get a vote to the polling station, their vote must be accounted for as having not-consented; because they did not.
A desirable alternate voting practice would have the candidates and / or their campaign team circulate petition-ballots for obtaining the consent-votes from at least two-thirds of the total number of registered voters in their political jurisdiction. This is by far less costly to the community and demonstrates the candidate’s ability to organize and lead people to accomplish a given task. This also requires that each signature be Notary-Verified against a certified voter-checklist.
6 Purging the Voter Register
All voter registers are 100% purged of every name, every third year so as to remove the names of all dead people, people who moved out of the district, people serving any part of a sentence who were duly convicted, and people receiving government assistance or participating in any government assistance program. All voters from the purged register — except for the exceptions listed — may re-register without being re-tested. Automatic re-testing occurs on the voter’s tenth-year resident-citizen anniversaries, as well as test those purged from the register who did not re-register within six years.
§4 The First House
The First House consists of all lawful residents who are eligible to vote and registered as a voter; detailed earlier.
The Consent of the Governed works in this manner: That to secure our rights, we institute governments among us. Our governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed.
Consent of the governed demands completing the following three elements in the following order:
1 Element #1
The proposed government power or the election of a candidate must serve to preserve the rights of all the people equally. If it does not, it must never go to ballot for a vote.
2 Element #2
If an individual, while exercising a proposed power, cannot do so without unjustly violating other's rights, the issue should never go to ballot for a vote.
3 Element #3
Only after successfully passing the tests of Elements #1 and #2 may the proposed power or candidate go on ballot for voting; not that they must, but that they may. In Element #3, whatever or whomever is on the ballot must attain the consent from at least two-thirds majority of the total number of registered voters respective of the level of political jurisdiction (such as city, town, county, state, nation).
Of those eligible to vote, only those who desire to have their vote counted must register as a voter. Otherwise, persons eligible to vote but do not register as a voter, will not have a vote counted.
Every registered voter’s vote must count as not-consenting or as consenting. Any person who registered as a voter and desires to — not vote; that person must remove their name from the voter register.
Registering as a voter, creates a default not-consenting voter position; until such time the voter gets a ballot to the polling station to consent to some item or candidate on the ballot (or submitting a write-in). Otherwise, their vote must, by default, count as having not consented, until they convert it at the polling station to consent.
If the total number of registered voters who consent is less than two-thirds the total number of registered voters — for lack of consent, the balloted item fails and must not be enforceable or the candidate must not take office. This prevents voters from feeling the need to cast a ballot for the lesser of evils, which by definition is an act of treason (adhering to and giving aid and comfort to an enemy), as the voter selects a candidate that they consider will destroy the political jurisdiction — just a little less than the other options.
The minimum votes, thus establishing the minimum quorum, required by this Constitution is two-thirds the total number of registered voters.
Our government officials may only exercise those powers that protect the rights of all the resident-citizens equally. Any individual must also be able to rightly exercise, in the absence of government, any power granted to government.
§5 The Second House
Each larger political jurisdiction’s Second House consists of the total number of immediately junior or smaller political jurisdictions within it. Two-thirds of the Second-House Votes must Consent in order to pass in the Second House of each larger political jurisdiction.
Each lower-level political jurisdiction has one vote in the next-larger jurisdiction’s Second House. The Second-House vote is automatically determined as Consenting or as Not-Consenting based on whether two-thirds or more the total body of registered voters within that lower-level jurisdiction consented to the balloted item or did not consent.
§6 Legislation’s Required Elements
All of the following elements must be present in every legislative act.
1 Protect Rights
A Free Society limits legislation to prevent one person or group of people from unjustly violating the rights of another person or group. Harm consists only of tangible, personal bodily and / or financial harm to person or property. The person claiming damages must prove to an impartial jury that the claimed damages exist in order for the jury to order punishment and /or restitution as specified in the law.
2 Preamble
All legislation must contain a preamble that identifies what part of this Constitution (or element of The Supreme Law of the Land) authorizes the legislation and how the proposed legislation improves the political jurisdiction governed by the legislation.
3 State the Specific Penalty
All legislation that does not specifically state a penalty for punishing violators and does not specify the manner by which to fund its enforcement, it is unenforceable. A range of penalties must not exist. An honest Justice System is not a lottery. The penalty for the same prohibited action must be identical regardless of who commits the offense. An individual convicted of the same type of crime, after a prior conviction for that type of crime may receive a harsher penalty, which also must be detailed within that law, specifying the penalty for a repeat offender against the same law (such as:murder = murder: however self-defense ≠ murder: and robbery ≠ murder; etc.)
4 One Issue
All proposed legislation must contain only one clearly defined issue, which is the title for that legislation.
5 Requires Yes-Votes to Pass
All proposed legislation must be worded in such a manner that a —Yes– or Consenting- Vote favors the proposed legislation.
6 Expiration Date
All proposed legislation must contain a fixed date by which the proposal passes, or it dies. It must also include a specific date for automatic review for re-instating it. If not enacted by the deadline, it must automatically fail. If not re-enacted prior to the expiration date it dies as if actively repealed.
7 Signature- Ballot
The party desiring to get an item passed or a candidate elected or recalled must get at least two-thirds of the total number of registered voters to sign the ballot — consenting that they vote to approve the item or candidate listed. The Signature-Votes must be verified against a certified voter registration list by a notary, who verifies the required identification criteria. The balloted item or candidate takes effect immediately upon verification of receiving at least two-thirds consenting signatures. As opposed to polling stations; at the national level, signing events may be scheduled for a period not to exceed twelve months. If the Signature Ballot is unable to attain the required consenting signatures within that twelve months, it fails automatically for lack of consent.
Smaller political jurisdictions, may, within their respective constitutions, reduce the amount of time a signature ballot may remain open; but may not exceed twelve months.
8 Worded Identically to Advance
To advance legislation into progressively larger political jurisdictions, when passed within each smaller level jurisdiction it must be worded identically, including the penalty and manner of funding, as well as other criteria listed above.
9 Re-Introducing Failed Legislation
To prevent failed legislation from being resubmitted too frequently; it may not be resubmitted for at least two years after its last failure.
10 Funding
As for legislation enacted or candidates elected in only one town, only the people of that town must fund and enforce it. The same applies for counties, states, and nations. No other political jurisdiction's funds may go to that of another political jurisdiction without the people of that other jurisdiction specifically granting their two-thirds consent to participate.
§7 Checks and Balances
By requiring proposed legislation to attain two-thirds or greater vote in both Houses, prior to enforcement, the larger population centers are unable to control the generally, more numerous, smaller ones; which also prevents the more-numerous smaller population centers from controlling the larger-but-fewer population centers. This two/thirds rule also holds the brakes on government attaining too many powers too easily.
§8 Equal Media Time
The news media are supposed to be impartial; reporting the unbiased truth of an issue. Each publication or broadcasting business independently determines the space and / or time allotments within their respective coverage area and media format. Whatever that organization decides for themselves, they must provide equal time and / or space for every candidate running for the same office during the same election. This also requires equal time and / or space for both sides (pro and con) of legislative proposals.
To maintain the freedom of the press, the respective media owners may choose to provide no media time or space at all for any political purpose or vote. However, if they provide media for one side of the argument or for one candidate where there is more than one in the race — that media outlet must provide equal time and / or space for the other candidates or sides of the question who present their candidacy or differing position on an issue.
§9 Campaigns and Debates
The political jurisdiction holding the General Election sponsors question-and-answer forums and debates, which must include all registered candidates willing to participate. Candidates not participating in the forum disqualify themselves from being listed on the ballot in that election cycle. Though voters may write-in any candidate’s name.
Providing these forums prohibit all candidates, including write-in candidates, from buying advertising.
The largest political jurisdiction holding the election must organize and fund the forum. The political jurisdiction, in order to provide equal opportunity for candidates to attend each forum, must at least provide ground transportation for each candidate to and from the closest city hall office serving the candidate's official place of voting residence and the location where the forums take place.
The jurisdiction sponsoring the debates solicits questions from the people within the political jurisdiction that the office covers. The moderator organizes the questions according to topic, asking the question(s) best soliciting information on the topic.
During each forum, the moderator allows equal time for each candidate to respond. Time allotment may differ from question to question.
Candidates, who are situated in sound-proof cubicles, do not hear responses from other candidates until after moderator asks all the questions in this forum’s first half. Candidates, in the forum’s second half, may challenge and debate other candidates on specific topics, with the moderator also timing the debates according to the time requested and agreed to by the candidates prior to each debate.
Each phase runs until complete, in marathon fashion, with a ten-minute break every hour.
All question-and-answer sessions and debates are video and audio recorded for broadcasting over radio, television, cable, dish, Internet, transcribed for print publication, braille, international mores code, international sign language, or reproduced into any other formats that the people might amend into this Constitution. The recorded audio / video footage and transcripts from the question and answer forums and debates, in their entirety, must also be commercially available for sale to the public; as well as a number of copies available to public libraries for check-out and / or review inside the library. The proceeds from selling copies of the recorded forums and debates, as well as revenue from advertisers during the breaks while broadcasting and publishing help fund the these forums.
§10 Ranked Voting
Where more than one person is elected to fill an office, so that there is a leader in that office with a ranked replacement system; ranking is in such manner as to include the number of ranking positions. The candidate receiving two-thirds of the #1 ranking is the head of that office. Each successive ranking (#2, #3, etc.) fills the respective replacement in that order.§11 Elimination Voting — Ranked Voting
Should this election process encourage an unusually large number of candidates, several elimination- or ranked-voting rounds must occur.
Sixty days after each round of question and answer debate forum, an elimination vote takes place. To reduce candidate numbers after each voting round, the candidates in the top twenty percent receiving the highest vote-count advance to the next round of question-and-answer forums, debates, and voting until one candidate (or the required number of candidates) to fill the vacant seat(s), acquires two-thirds or more votes of the total body of registered voter's consent.
§12 Polling Station Hours
For General Election Voting: All polling stations within the same political jurisdiction that span only one time zone must open and close at the same time so that they remain open during the same twenty-four hour period.
For political jurisdictions that include multiple time zones, all polling stations must open according to the hour of the earliest time zone and must close according to the hour of the latest time zone so all polling stations remain open the same twenty-four hours, plus one hour for each time zone added.
An alternative would be to have the signing ballot set up in the local government office throughout a seven-day period for people to sign — if they desire to consent. At the end of the deadline, if it has not received the consenting votes from at least two-thirds of the total number of registered voters — it fails for lack of consent.
§13 Method of Voting
Briefly introduced earlier, the Signature-Ballot works best with Recall-Elections and Legislative proposals. It keeps the cost of voting minimized to the person or party seeking to recall a particular government official and / or government act. This simply requires the party initiating the Recall or initiating the legislative proposal to get the required two-thirds majority of the total number of registered voter's consenting signature verified.
§14 The General Election and Recall Election Tally-Sheet
The Tally Sheet is concerned with three primary elements of voting:
2 Only the Total Number of Consenting Votes
3 Did Two-Thirds or more of the Total Number of Registered Voters Consent
§15 Broadcasting-Publishing Vote Results
For General and Recall Elections: Early broadcasting or publishing of the actual, exit poll predictions, the numbers or percentages of party voters, or predicted or actual voting results in any form until twenty-four hours after the polls officially close is a felony and Breach of this Constitution. It is considered an attempt to manipulate the results of the polling process.
§16 Enacting Legislation
All legislative votes begin in the First House with the people in the smallest-level political jurisdictions (cities, towns, villages, etc.) regardless of the level of political jurisdiction that the proposed legislation might eventually govern.
Proposed legislation passes in the First House of the smallest-level political jurisdiction when two-thirds or more of the total number of registered voters vote — Yes — Consenting on the proposal.
The Second House Vote for each city, town, or village is automatically — Yes / Consenting — when two-thirds or more of the total number of registered voters of the First House of that city, town, or village approve the proposed legislation; otherwise, the Second-House vote is — No / Not-Consenting —.
The First House tally-sheet and Second House vote tallies from each lower level political jurisdiction must accompany a copy of each legislative proposal, whether it passes or fails. The lower level jurisdiction transmits this package to the next-larger level political jurisdiction.
Each next-larger level jurisdiction’s executive office accumulates, tracks, coordinates, and adds the votes regarding lower-level legislation and determines whether that legislation passes in the larger political jurisdiction, according to the rules of this Constitution.
Each political jurisdiction keeps a copy of the legislative package and vote tallies for their records as they send the package to the next-larger political jurisdiction.
When the proposed legislation passes in both Houses of the next-larger political jurisdiction, the larger jurisdiction sends the legislative copies to all lower levels to inform them that the legislation now affects that entire larger-level political jurisdiction, including those that may not have considered the legislation.
This legislative process advances into each progressively larger political jurisdiction as detailed above. If the legislation remains unchanged as it advances into each larger jurisdiction, the smaller jurisdiction’s people need not vote on the issue with each advance. If the legislation changes, the smaller jurisdictions must vote on those changes if the proposed legislation has not already passed in both Houses of the larger political jurisdiction without including the vote count of those jurisdictions not yet voting on the changes.
In order to enact proposed legislation to a specific political jurisdiction, both Houses of that jurisdiction must attain two-thirds or more — Yes / Consenting — votes. Without the required two-thirds majority, the proposal fails and it is not enforceable in the lower-level political jurisdictions that passed it; unless the lower levels enact the proposed legislation with a stipulation to allow its enforcement, even if it failed to pass in the larger jurisdiction.
To enact legislation to a specific level political jurisdiction, the proposed legislation must state a specific date by which to enact the proposal. If not enacted by that set date, it automatically fails. If political jurisdictions are added or removed while a vote is in progress — those changes in jurisdiction numbers must be included in the calculations just as adding and removing registered voters alters the calculation in the First House.
This process does not guarantee or require that every registered voter approve the proposed legislation. It promotes the greatest participation by the people to improve each proposal before it advances into each larger political jurisdiction. This process eliminates the rule of the few over the many, or where indirect legislative representatives migrate toward refusing to represent their respective constituents.
This process allows free citizens, united in a political union to withdraw their vote, if done so prior to the final calculation and ratification of the balloted item or candidate. Thus the need for identification on each ballot.
§17 Electing Officials
For every election, (run-off elimination or ranked voting), a single ballot issues with every candidate who registered for the office listed on the ballot. Candidate names appear on the ballot in random order so that each candidate appears in different parts of the ballot as equally as practical.
Ballots must not contain any political party affiliation, prior officer's titles, or any other identification for any candidate, other than their Last, then First names.
The Governed People via two-thirds of the total body of registered voters directly elect the executive and judicial officers for their respective political jurisdictions via the Two-House System.
In addition to receiving more votes than any other candidate during the same election for the same office, the candidate who takes office must also receive two-thirds or more consenting votes from the total number of registered voters from within that political jurisdiction. This means that the successful candidate must receive more votes than the combined total of the registered voters who did not cast a ballot for that office added to those who left the space blank. In this manner, the people are not obligated to Vote For the lesser of evils.
If no candidate receives two-thirds or more consenting votes from the total number of registered voters, the executive and / or judicial officer must order a new election. The new ballot lists all new candidates; excluding the candidate names printed on the original ballot, but may include write-in candidates who accept a nomination.
The elected officials, within their branch and political jurisdiction work together to successfully carry out the duties approved by law while also working on the plans and promises they proposed while campaigning.
Voters approve candidate promises up to the point that those proposals do not conflict with this Constitution or already-enacted legislation made in pursuance to this constitution. Such voter approval allows officials to develop plans concerning the amount and manner for funding and implementation of the promised projects; all of which requires additional legislative approval before implementation.
§18 Standard Term Limits
Standard Term Limits for Executive and Judicial Officers, are one, eight-year term in any ten consecutive years, with a person serving in the same political office no longer than twenty-four years in the same political jurisdiction. Ideally, but not required, the people might promote, via election, their best-qualified leaders from within the smaller political jurisdictions into the larger political jurisdictions in both the executive and judicial offices. If an elected person becomes corrupted against this Constitution, the people may remove that politician by way of a Recall Signature-Ballot. Recalls may occur at any time the people consider that government officer needs to be removed — before the end of the contracted term.
§19 Political Retirement Benefits
There are no retirement benefits once the person leaves office from any occupation of government, with the exception for the Active-Duty military services, so long as they honorably served in combat during an active, constitutionally declared war. These benefits are limited to all medical needs that resulted from active war-time military service, in addition to receiving up to 50% of their base pay for the rest of their life. The war-time veteran's who die in combat, their immediate family (spouse and / or children) must receive, for a period of 20 years, 100% of the veteran's base pay.
Honorable service also includes arresting — as domestic enemies — and bringing to trial legislators who pass unconstitutional laws, police officers who enforce them, and judges who do not allow the Declaration or the Constitution as defense.
§20 Heirloom Offices
At least three generations should separate other family members who served in the same political office, jurisdiction, and government level that the candidate seeks. This reduces the ease by which political office and power become family heirlooms. The two-thirds vote requirement also helps reduce the likelihood of political office and power becoming family heirlooms.
§21 Grant of Authority
Upon election, executive and judicial officers obtain the lawful authority to act on the people’s behalf within their respective political jurisdictions — but only so far as the respective Constitution/s and enacted legislation permits.
An election does not automatically grant authority for an official to enforce or otherwise complete campaign promises that conflict with this Constitution or other enacted legislative authority. Without constitutional authority for their actions; elected officials risk being recalled and / or prosecuted for treason. The people may grant or revoke any political powers via their Sovereign Authority through legislative actions, which become effective upon enactment. This alters the powers of any official in office at the time of enactment.
The only voter-mandate that exists from the people to any government official comes through the lawful amendment process detailed in this constitution. Just because a candidate receives the consenting votes from two-thirds or more of the total number of registered voters to take office, this does not authorize the candidate, when elected, to work on any project that violates this constitution.
§22 Emergencies
The executive and / or judicial officers of the affected political jurisdiction may call an emergency legislative session for situations in cases where existing legislation does not already grant to them the required authority to resolve those situations that the Executive or the Judicial Officer claims is an emergency. If a politician abuses this Emergencies clause, the people reserve the right to remove that politician from office, and / or to nullify unjust acts, resolutions, decisions, contracts, etc. initiated by those politicians. The same way any government officer, employee, volunteer, contractor, or others working on behalf of a government officer or agency can be removed from office before the end of their term, who violates this constitution.
§23 Impeachments and Recalls
The two-thirds majority vote of the total body of registered voters holds the sole power to impeach and recall government officials, whether the official is elected, hired, appointed, under contract, or in any other manner works in government.
Recall-Signature-Ballots must state, in less than 200 words, the cause(s) for the impeachment or recall, as well as the remedy sought. This ballot is circulated among the body of registered voters to acquire their voting-signature, which must be clearly stated that what they sign is a Signature-Ballot and that it must acquire two-thirds or more consenting-signatures before the ballot becomes lawfully enforceable. Signature-Ballot signatures must be verified by way of the Two-Step process that includes:
1 Certified Voter Registration Checklist
The voter registration checklist must be verified by the Clerk of Voter Registration as being complete and accurate as of the date delivered.
2 Notary-Verified Consenting Signatures
The Impeachment or Recall Ballot, in addition to the 200-word cause for removal, must also provide 200-word rebuttal space from the official subject to the recall. The official will state the reason(s) for their actions and why they feel they should not be recalled. This is not required, especially if the government officer refuses, but refusal must be noted.
The recall and impeachment vote must hold to the same two-thirds consenting votes of the total number of registered voters, as did the election.
The same election process that provides for debates between the candidate/s named in the petition and the government official subject to impeachment or recall shall take place once the consenting signatures reach fifty-percent of the total number of registered voters.
§24 Repeal and Amendments
Repeal and Amendments within this Constitution do not become effective until three-fourths consenting-votes of both Houses within this nation approves the proposed amendment or repeal.
§25 Other Powers
The appropriate political jurisdictions, to which any enacted legislation has attained, will approve taxation in both the budgeted amounts and the manner collected, which are required as part of the legislative process; as well as determine the wages and benefits for their respective elected officials and the pay range for other government employees of the same political jurisdiction.
The legislative body may grant pardons, and all other duties as legislators of right may do according to the rules of this 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America". Pardons must attain three-quarters of the Total Number of Registered Voters in the respective political jurisdiction to grant the Pardon.
§26 Risk and Wars
All citizens collectively risk their lives, fortunes, and / or honor in wartime. The governed and registered to vote Citizens of the political jurisdiction must be the ones who decide what wars to join, or continue defending, so long as to not violate the powers honorably granted to a larger political jurisdiction.
The Executive Officers automatically possess power to defend their respective political jurisdictions against a known enemy. In order to engage in a war that defends people of other countries, when we are not under attack, requires two-thirds of the total number of registered voter's consent (unless a specific level of assistance is authorized beforehand in a Treaty Agreement).
§27 Benefits
The people of the cities, towns, villages, and upward, become aware of legislation as it happens, because it works its way up from smaller jurisdictions into the larger. This legislative system employs far fewer people in government offices and agencies by abolishing the elected legislative branch in all political jurisdictions. It nearly eliminates the entire cost of legislative staff and most of the operating expenses while also abolishing most of the wasteful political spending.
This single step redirects billions of otherwise wasted tax dollars by the nation’s government into worthy projects and programs, as well as allowing taxpayers to retain a greater percentage of their financial reserves.
Legislation must be written for the people to easily and properly comprehend without the need for legal translators or specialized dictionaries. Therefore all words defined in any law must be in accord with the Common-Use definitions that existed as close to and just prior to the dates being submitted for vote, unless otherwise defined in this constitution.
This legislative system reduces court overload from people who violate laws that they either do not know about or do not comprehend. For words not specifically defined in this Constitution, a common-use dictionary of the time just prior to being submitted for vote to ratify this Constitution must be used to define those terms.
Where this Constitution defines specific terms, those definitions must apply to all legislation and government offices at all government levels to maintain consistency throughout government offices and society generally.
Legislation slowly advances into larger political jurisdictions, which allows for improvements to occur in the lower levels where it is relatively inexpensive to implement and test those improvements.
The requirement for attaining two-thirds or more of the total number of registered votes prevents smaller groups of a political jurisdiction from passing special-interest legislation behind closed doors. It requires the greatest degree of publicity and voter participation and consent before proposed legislation or a candidate becomes official.
§28 Voting Holidays
For General Elections: There must be at least four Voting Holidays set aside as local holidays, one for each quarter of the year. These days replace four other national and / or local holidays (be they political and / or religious). See also the alternate to this by the initiating party/s that circulate Signature-Ballots to attain the required two-thirds consenting votes.

Article 5: Executive Branch
§1 Qualifications
Minimum Qualifications for the Elected Executive offices for "The United States of America"; the candidate must be thirty-five years old; a lawful citizen of one of the united States of America for at least the fourteen consecutive years immediately prior to the election, and must possess a working knowledge The 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America".
No candidate may have multiple citizenship or loyalties with any foreign countries or cultures, which prohibits hyphenated Americans (such as but not limited to; any foreign country- or culture-American). Either you are loyal to these united States of America, or not. In times of war, even allies part ways and war against each other. This, in no way prohibits a person from enjoying their cultural heritage, so long as it does not violate any laws made in pursuance to This 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America." This is designed to prevent elected Officers from holding loyalties to those heritages that may influence actions contrary to this Constitution.
When registering as a candidate for office, the candidate must prove their qualification for the office. Most importantly that what they promise to complete while in office, this Constitution authorizes those activities.
Proof of qualification is limited only to what this Constitution requires. That proof must be available for public inspection from the time the candidate registers as a candidate for the office. The candidate must provide an official copy of their certificate of live birth, and / or naturalization papers; as this relates to age and citizenship. The successful candidate must also have passed the required tests relating to this Constitution and contracts named herein to ensure the candidate fully comprehends those contracts and the duties of their office. The Constitution Testing must be the same for every elected, hired and appointed government office, agency, or department concerning the duties of their respective offices.
§2 Duties
Without regard to social-economic class and to ensure social stability, the executive officers, without bias, must impartially enforce all laws made in pursuance to this constitution, and work to put into effect approved programs, and complete approved projects that do not conflict with this Constitution. Where conflict occurs, the Executive officer must consult with the Judicial Branch via the Grand Jury system. If the Grand Jury finds that conflict exists, they must recommend to the Legislative Branch such amendments or repeal as they consider appropriate. The legislation in question is not enforceable until such time the Legislative Branch amends, repeals, or determines to make no changes.
Executive officers possess no legislative powers. Executive Orders do not possess the power of law to influence the citizen actions to punish a person where no constitutionally passed legislation exists on that topic.
Executive Orders apply only to members of the Executive Branch with respect to how it will enforce the laws and support This 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America", as well as how it will hold law enforcement officers accountable for violating rights when gathering evidence or violating other constitutional laws (detailed throughout this constitution).
Constitutional Executive Orders must work to fulfill some element of The Supreme Law of the Land (detailed later); otherwise they are considered unconstitutional and cause for removal from office.
The executive title for “The United States of America” (the government) is President of "The United States of America", which is our nation's the government-structure. The President of "The United States of America" is not the leader of our nation. The people are the leader of our nation. The President of "The United States of America" is the head of our governments and represents us to foreign countries.
The Executive Office helps protect the people’s rights against unjust infringement, whether by individuals or other political forces (foreign or domestic); and if domestic, whether at the national level or in any of the smaller political jurisdictions within; as well as maintains good standing with other political jurisdictions within these united States of America, and with foreign political jurisdictions.
§3 Vacancies
Note on the Electoral College: The Election of the Presidential of "The United States of America", was the only nationally elected office of our governments. Under this Constitution, this also includes our Nation's supreme Court Judges (no lawyer should be a judge, as conflict of interest) and there should be a two-house election process for these nationally-elected offices.
The First House is what is known as the Popular Vote. The candidate with the majority of the total number of registered voters' consenting votes — wins the popular vote. This vote automatically decides which candidate receives the Second-House Vote in that County.
The Second House is the Electoral Vote. The County-Lines replaces the Congressional Districts because there are no more elected legislative offices. Each County has only one electoral vote. The candidate receiving two-thirds of the popular vote within that County wins the one electoral vote for that County. Winning two-thirds of the total number of Counties Electoral Votes nationwide, wins the Second-House vote; thus winning the Election.
This system requires that all candidates campaign in nearly all Counties in order to win the Second House votes.
With a Ranked-Voting System, four Presidential Candidates are ranked by voters:
• The Presidential Candidate who gets two-thirds or more #1 ranking votes is the President of "The United States of America".
• The Presidential Candidates respectively who receives the two-thirds or more #2, #3, and #4 rankings are the line of successionwho takes over the Presidency upon the President's death, inability to perform duties of office, or removal from office by the people for constitutional violations. As the assistant to the President, the Vice Presidents must be informed of all the political jurisdiction's matters in order to continue the duties of that office.
A rticle 6: J udicial B ranch
The purpose here, as with all other sections, is to eliminate as much vagueness as possible so that neither the people nor the government officers have very few if any questions as to the limits and scope of their officer's powers.
§1 Qualifications
Judicial officers (which include, judges, prosecutors, and defense attorneys) must be at least thirty-five years old and lived in these united States of America at least fourteen consecutive years just prior to the election.
Prosecution and defense assistance hired by the victims and / or the defendants may be of any choosing of the respective party, regardless of age, and must be allowed to work alongside the elected counterpart officer in government.
§2 Multiple Jurisdictions
Prior to setting the trial date, the Judicial Officer must send notice to each of the larger political jurisdictions (county, state, federal courts, etc.) so that they may sit in on and take part in any trial.
The trial date must be set at the earliest convenience of the defense (the same day if requested) – but no later than three days after the ticket or arrest is made (if no earlier date is requested). When ticketed and / or arrested, the government admits they possess enough evidence to get a lawful conviction and that they are, in fact, ready for trial.
§3 Jury
Each Jury is no more than eighteen members from among the people within these united States. No Jury member is required to be a resident of the area or even citizens of one of the state or of our nation. They are simply required to be impartial. The government offices must not select more than half of the entire panel from which the Jury is pulled — Such a selection is not an impartial system.
The defendant may choose to throw darts or draw names at random from people in the community, or use some other method.
The jury-pool must be considered as impartial to both parties as practical; selected from the people as randomly as probable.
Such a system requires that the opposing parties first try the law based on our nation's founding documents, which are presently combined into this 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America". If the law in question violate this Constitution, the accused must be set free without a trial because they committed no crime. This stage of the trial process also must set free all other people presently incarcerated for that crime.
If the law is found to support, or made in pursuance to this Constitution, only then do the facts get tried, which is the evidence that either proves that the person in question did or did not violate that law.
People who may not be familiar with our nation's documents must be informed about them, at the very least, just prior to the start of the trial.
Both Parties (prosecution and defense) must, together and at the same time, in a public place, select eighteen jurors as randomly as practical from the body of people within that political jurisdiction at that time. Those eighteen potential jurors must draw twelve names from a hat to determine which will serve as the primary jury and which as the replacement jurors.
All eighteen jurors must sit through the entire trial until discharged by the court. In addition to legislatively approved compensation, all those serving jury duty (for any length of time) must receive waivers from the court, which bill collectors and employers in this constitution’s political jurisdiction must honor. The waiver extends the juror's bills a minimum of one month (extended one month at a time for longer trials) postponing payments without penalty or added interest, and without negative mention on any credit report.
Employers must not adversely affect the juror’s wages or work status because of jury service. The entity, to whom money is owed during this time, is also included.
In both criminal and non-criminal cases, the jury must have twelve members who decide the verdict. Juries must hear only one case at a time, through to the final verdict. Jurors will be transported to and from the trial to the hotel by the Sheriff’s Department if the trial is longer than one day.
The defendant must be asked to take the stand. Once there, the court (judge, prosecutor, and defense) must inform the defendant of their right to not give testimony or evidence that might convict themselves. That if they choose to answer any question, it does not obligate them to answer any other questions. Defense Counsel may and should advise their client regarding each question as to whether it could be construed as self-incriminating. Defense Counsel should be alongside their client during questioning for off the record confidential side-bars for advising their defendant on each question.
Jurors must be the type of person that they would like sitting in the Jury Box if they were accused of a crime that they claim they did not commit. These same Jurors also must be the type of juror they would like sitting in the Jury Box if they were the victim.
Each juror lives with the verdict they decide. Therefore, each juror must carefully balance those two positions. Victims can be mistaken, just as investigators have accused innocent people.
A juror's task is never as easy as the evidence or lack thereof might indicate. The juror first must decide if a crime was in fact committed. This means that the jury must Try The Law First, deciding if the law in question violates any of the applicable constitutions — especially. l this 2020 Founding Charter and Constitution for "The United States of America". Then, the jurors Try The Facts, deciding whether the accused person is the one who actually committed the crime.
Juries do not possess the power to nullify laws. They have the power to recommend to the Respective Legislative Body that a law be created, amendment, or repealed — but they cannot nullify the law. Jury Nullification destroys the Rule of Law by allowing a small portion of society to exercise personal biases in the legislative process. The jury may also request that a Grand Jury be convened to see if the Legislative Branch members need to be investigates and / or tried for Blatant Constitutional Violations.
As a juror, each has the duty to ask questions during the trial to clarify evidence and / or testimony, take notes, review evidence and testimony, and to call or recall witnesses as needed.
During Jury-selection, the only questions to be asked a potential juror are:
• Are you able to read, write, and otherwise communicate in the united States American-English language? [Tests are appropriate].
• Do you have personal knowledge about the crime committed? [If so, this person should be among the witnesses].
• What is your association with the defendant and the other members of the court [judge, prosecutor, defense attorney, accused, victim]? Looking for biases, which allows other related questions.
§4 Duties
Judges, who shall not have been employed as lawyers, oversee all criminal and non-criminal cases to maintain order in the courtroom. An impartial Jury must determine the verdict in every case. The Jury must decide what evidence is admissible or not — based on the arguments from the opposing parties. Any person in the courtroom may offer information for a Jury to consider.
The courts must not legislate in any manner whatsoever. This also prohibits using precedence (prior court decisions) to determine a present case. This also prohibits using Judicial Review, which is an unjust court power to interpret constitutions, thus unconstitutionally amending the constitution, which is a power not granted to the courts.
Only a panel of Juries decide the guilt or culpability in every criminal and every non-criminal case based on that case’s own merits and regardless of the severity of accusation or the penalty in question.
Without regard as to social-economic class and to ensure social stability, juries must impartially and without bias decide each case based on the evidence and testimony presented. The Judge must, impartially and without bias, carry out the sentence according to the Rule of Law, as the mandatory penalty must be stated within the law that the person is accused of violating. Without that penalty stated within the law, for violating that law, no crime was committed.
In all criminal cases, the defense council, judges and prosecutors must, in accord with general practices, as best as they can, make sure that the accused person knows their rights and the limited powers granted to the government regarding those rights.
The accused person’s rights must remain free of government violations, while also assuring that the victim’s rights are also equally protected.
In non-criminal and criminal cases, in open court, the prosecution and defense attorneys must assist the judge in ensuring that the opposing parties comprehend the laws pertaining to their case. This process does not prohibit any party from obtaining independent advisors, which does not have to be a lawyer — in either criminal or non-criminal cases.
Each larger-level judicial jurisdiction is the appellate court for the next-smaller level judicial jurisdiction. Each court retains original jurisdiction for trying The Law and The Facts for all cases resulting from issues and legislation elevated to their jurisdiction.
§5 Presumed Innocent
In both criminal and non-criminal cases, the accused or the defendant must be considered innocent until proven guilty or culpable and decided as such by an impartial jury.
§6 Court Costs and Frivolous Case
Except in cases where juries decide that the case is frivolous, all court costs, in all cases, criminal and non-criminal, regardless of guilt, culpability, or not; as well as regardless of which party initiates the case, must be paid by the governed people from the jurisdiction's Judicial Fund where the trial occurs. This provides to those lacking the financial means with the ability to seek justice via the courts.
§7 Jury Recommendation
Where a specific type of crime increases, the jury may recommend to the Legislative Branch that they increase the penalty where the crime in question violates other people’s rights. Otherwise, the jury may recommend amending or repealing the law if the criminal accusation resulted from the acts between consenting adults or if the actions do not harm others or their property.Jury recommendations for altering or repealing current laws does not alter any case prior to the possible legislative changes. When the people, through their legislative duties, repeal or amend a law, they free all the people incarcerated for that offense from serving any more time associated with that act. It does not alter any other sentences for other convicted actions.
Any law that makes an act unlawful, that was previously not prohibited, must not be enforceable on any person who committed the act before the new law was enacted.
A rticle 7: O pen R ecords
The security of Free People depends upon them knowing what their employees in government do – and that those Free People are easily able to access that information about government activity. In this way, the Free People are better informed about which government acts, decisions, rulings, orders, contracts, and people must be removed from government — For Cause.
§1 All Government Meetings, Records, Acts
All Government Meetings, records, acts, and judicial proceedings in all branches and all government levels under this Constitution must be open and available to any governed citizen and to the press at a fee no higher than that charged by a commercial entity for the same type of reproduction service in that area. Secrecy in government breeds corruption, contempt, and distrust. There must be no exceptions. During times of war, the President and / or military leaders may request that the media not publicize specific information until after the fact, so as to protect the lives of our soldiers. This requires building a mutual trust and respect.
§2 Rights and Immunities
The citizens of each jurisdiction under this Constitution are free to enjoy all rights and immunities common to all citizens within the united States of America — because their list of rights and immunities are identical.
§3 Fugitives from Justice
A convicted person fleeing one jurisdiction into another must be subject to return on demand by the executive officer of the jurisdiction from where the person fled.
§4 Form of Government
This Constitution guarantees a Direct Bicameral Legislative Democracy, as detailed in this 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America". The people exercise their Sovereign Authority via the democratic process by electing their respective Officers into the Executive and Judicial Branches of a Representative Republic Form of Government.
Successful bills and / or candidates must attain at least two-thirds the majority of their respective total body of registered voters consent; or fail for lack of consent.
A rticle 8: D ebts P rior T o E nactment — O ur N ation's D ebt
Because of what our representatives did under The Articles of Confederation, as it relates to our nation's debt, and what our representatives have done under The Constitution for the United States of America — this Article is to make it clear that any government person who subjects the people to any debt that The Constitution for the United States of America has not specifically authorized — those government people, who charge the debt, approve the debt, and / or do not actively work to repeal that debt become personally liable for settling that debt. Such debt must not belong to the people who have not, via The Constitution for the United States of America, authorized such debt. This same rule applies to all future debt incurred on behalf of the people, which this The 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for the "The United States of America" has not =specifically authorized.
§1 Lawful Debts
Treaties, debts, contracts, engagements, obligations, or trade agreements, entered into by the representatives prior to this Constitution, where those representatives properly presented to the governed people; as required by The unanimous Declaration of the united States of America, 1776, via this grievance: "For imposing taxes on us without our consent". And which obtains the authority of those governed and / or where Constitutional authority existed, these debts must be honored.
§2 Unlawful Debts
Where the debt obligations entered into by the representatives prior to this Constitution were not properly presented to the people to obtain their authority, and / or where no Constitutional authority existed, those representatives who consented to that debt and those who did not repeal that debt while in office during that time are personally liable for repaying that debt. Under this Constitution. On a case-by-case basis, the people may, after-the-fact authorize those acts or debts or to bring any living. representative to trial for violating their oath of office and / or for treason under the terms of the prior constitution.
A rticle 9: A dded P olitical R estrictions
Although stated in different ways throughout this constitution; it must be repeated again — here. If this constitution does not grant a specific power to government, it is an act of tyranny and / or treason to exercise that prohibited power. All this means is that all powers are prohibited to government unless specifically granted by this constitution.
The relationship between powers of government and the rights of the people regarding the various political jurisdictions must follow this principle: When Government Powers and the Rights of the People conflict or are not clear; benefit must go to the rights of the people.
The people are responsible for enforcing this constitutional Law upon their respective government officers.
§1 Religion
Religious institutions or charitable organization must not receive any special political consideration than those allowed for any other business.
Free exercise of religion does not permit breaking laws in a religion’s name or any god’s name; nor does this exempt any religion or charitable organization or member thereof from paying any taxes according to the same rules that apply to other business or other individuals.
§2 Speech, Press, Assembly, Petition
No laws or other government actions may abridge the freedom of speech, press, or the people’s right to assemble peaceably, or to petition for a redress of grievances by circulating Signature-Ballots to alter their government’s powers or forms of government. This does not allow riotous assembling that exercise threats and violence, blocking lawful business activity, and also prohibits other associated violent actions. This also does not allow for gathering in places that interfere with public travel (such as, blocking sidewalks or streets, etc.) Unjustly Violating other people's rights is a crime.
Speaking, printing, or broadcasting threats of violence, libel or slander violates other people’s rights. The person harmed is responsible for seeking restitution via the courts.
The line that separates harassment from freedom of speech must settle conflicts between one person’s right to speak with an other’s right to not hear or be physically harmed by that false speech or the volume of the speech. Harm from words usually comes from others who act on those words as if those words are true. This makes both the speaker and the actor accountable for their respective parts.
Common courtesy, the volume of the exchange, the venue where the exchange occurs, and whether the words target a specific person or are merely overheard by one person from other's conversations, among other factors, helps clarify the difference.
§3 Arms
The individual’s right to keep and bear arms must not be infringed by any government office or officer.
As with all other rights, when a convicted person pays their debt in full, according to the law — that person's rights must be fully and automatically reinstated in accord with this Constitution.
The punishment for criminal activity that uses a weapon or threat of a weapon must be three-times that as if the same crime was committed without a weapon or threat of a weapon. During the same criminal act, harming more than one person, each person harmed constitutes a separate offense within the same event.
Defending self, family, others, and property — when proven, is not a crime.
Requiring a person to pass weapons-safety classes from a reputable commercial or government entity that teaches the proper weapon use, care, and maintenance are not an infringement on the right to keep or bear any arms.
Weapons-safety classes are a public safety measure and falls within the well-regulated militia criteria in accord with The Constitution for the United States of America, Second Amendment. Any person carrying a weapon in public must have demonstrated that they at least qualified as a sharpshooter classification or better at a live-fire qualification-range; thus demonstrating their ability to hit their intended target while being fired upon by others. The live-fire range uses paintball guns firing at the person qualifying for the training.
Public safety measures require individuals pass driving-tests for properly operating vehicles in public. Other similar restrictions on individual rights, regarding these rights or others, must be amended into this Constitution. Some additional occupations that require testing include medicine, mechanics, utilities, and other public hazardous occupations to make certain that the people are skilled in those professions.
With respect to Arms: For clarity, this 1785 definition for Arms comes from a common-use dictionary. ARMS. 1. Weapons of offense, or armour of defense.
The proper enforcement of the 1787/90 Constitution for the United States of America, Amendment 13 use of slavery and involuntary servitude for punishing criminal activity, carried forward into this Constitution, works to reduce violent crime, as well as all other crime when the person is duly convicted.
§4 Militia
Well-regulated, professionally trained militias that respect the people's rights are necessary to maintain the security of a Free People (City, County, State, and Nation). Citizens forming Private Militias remain subject to this Constitution and other constitutions listed herein, as well as the political jurisdiction’s laws wherein they meet — so long as those laws are made in pursuance to this constitution.
Private militia and State militia are subject to serve the people of the united States of America, the State, County, and City wherein they organize and train; and when called into service, the members must be compensated at the same pay rate as the regular military and / or police force; not at an increased rate of compensation. The higher rate of compensation creates loyalty to the pay than to the people's rights. The idea is to prevent a guns-for-hire situation.
§5 Soldiers, Quartering
Whether in wartime or peacetime, no soldier or other government officials may be quartered on any property without the owner’s and lawful occupant’s consent. A citizen who does not condone the war should not be forced to support it.
§6 Personal Security/Privacy
The right of the people to be secure in their person, houses, business, transportation, papers, banking, communications, and other effects, whether electronic, written or other modes; against unreasonable searches and seizures must not be violated.
The only use for this Government Power is for finding and punishing people for criminal activity. It has no other use than Ensuring Justice.
No warrants may issue but upon probable cause that a crime was committed. Probable cause is only enough to get the warrant not enough for an automatic search. The warrant must be supported by oath or affirmation naming the person people who witnessed the crime, particularly describing the place or persons to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized along with the witness who reported the sought person or items.
When referencing a reasonable search; there must be a constitutional reason for the search. The search itself must be conducted in a reasonable manner, so as to not unnecessarily damage private property.
Neither this, nor ant other part of this Constitution, may be violated, even during war.
Probable cause is not sufficient to allow an automatic search without a warrant, unless conducted for the sole purpose and only done sufficient enough to reduce a presently occurring criminal or violent act so that a warrant may be obtained for additional searching if required.
Once the person sought is in custody / detained / cuffed, any finger prints, DNA, etc testing must have a warrant detailing why that evidence is required. Warrants may be electronically transmitted from the Signing Judge to the Field Officers to be delivered to the person detained.
Any items discovered during the disarming, unless identified as part of the crime for which the person is sought and searched, must not be cause to obtain a warrant for extra searching unrelated to the original cause.
Officers witnessing a crime in action should detain offenders and secure the area, making certain those apprehended are unarmed, or at east restrained. This does not authorize additional searches without a warrant, of the person’s bags, vehicles, person, etc.
Once detained and the area secure, the officers should obtain a proper warrant naming the person(s) and / or place(s) to be searched, and naming the person(s) and / or place(s) and/or thing(s) to be seized. Under this Constitution, naming includes giving a written physical description and / or photo and / or accurate sketch of the person detained if they refuse to identify themselves.
§7 Searches
Evidence from searches without a warrant must be allowed in court so long as the searchers receive prior written consent from the person to be searched and / or from the owner and occupant of the places to be searched. The written consent must include the places to be searched, the items or persons sought, the persons or things to be seized, and at least two independent witnesses or one notary to witness the signatures.
All searches must allow for counsel or other independent witnesses to be present should the person to be searched or the property owner and / or occupant to be searched make such a request. Additionally, any concerned passer-by may view and record any action by government personnel, so long as they do not interfere with the movement of the officers.
Officers keeping the public away from a scene and out of camera and recorder range is a violation against the Free Press. Those people who interfere with the securing of evidence can be arrested for obstructing justice. Vocalizing concerns about police activity is not interference.
Where used, the term legal guardian does not include teachers, preachers, babysitters or others who might have temporary care over a child. Without a court order, only the parent(s) or legal guardian(s) can search or grant permission to search a person who is not yet eighteen years old or who is not yet a legally emancipated minor. Even with a court order, the parents or the legal guardians must be present during the search — unless that person is actively committing any type of crime or fleeing an armed and / or otherwise violent crime.
A minor, a person who is not of an adult age or is not a lawfully emancipated minor may not lawfully authorize property or personal searches. Minors may not lawfully consent to a search without their parent(s) or legal guardian(s) present. In emergencies or rescues the minors should direct officers to where assistance is required. Rendering such assistance is not cause for unrelated searches.
§8 Found Evidence
Evidence found in public locations that are not on private or commercial property must be considered as lawfully obtained. Locations such as rented or borrowed locker-space (whether from private, commercial, or government facilities) must be considered as private.
Government offices, lockers, or operations must be considered public, regardless of whether they lease or rent from a private or commercial entity.
The evidence found through any search that violates this Constitution must be presented in court for examination by the jury to determine its relevance and admissibility for the trial. The offending searchers must be prosecuted for the unlawful search and as an accomplice to the crime — especially if the violations allow a guilty person to escape justice. Upon conviction, each person involved in conducting an unlawful search must serve a mandatory one-year sentence for violating each searched person’s rights. Each person or place unlawfully searched is a separate violation.
§9 Return of Property
After the jury delivers their verdict, all seized property must be returned within thirty days to the rightful owner. All money seized must be returned with interest, paid at the highest bank rate available to the public by any public banking establishment within the subject jurisdiction during the time the money was seized, provided the defendant is found innocent or not-guilty.
All stolen property must be returned to its rightful owner within thirty days after the trial concludes. In all other cases, where the jury delivers a guilty verdict, the next-larger political jurisdiction must auction the seized property, if it does not belong to the victim of a crime. The next-larger political jurisdiction officials must advertise the seized items to be sold and must sell the seized property at a public auction established by the people of the lower political jurisdiction.
The receipts from selling seized property become part of the General Fund of political jurisdiction that is next-larger than the one that auctioned or sold the items. This prevents a political jurisdiction from unjustly seizing property to bolster their various funds.
§10 Capital Crime
No person should be detained while awaiting trial to answer for any crime, no matter how minor or serious the crime, unless required by a Grand Jury.
A grand Jury is twenty-four or more impartially and randomly selected people in the area at that time. Members for a given Grand Jury must be chosen at random and four-fifths of the members must consider that there is enough evidence to bind the accused over for trial. The Accused must be notified of the Grand Jury meeting and should be present to address the charges and potentially prove innocence so that officials might focus their search on other probable suspects.
§11 Double Jeopardy
No person should be subject for the same offense, action, or inaction to be twice put in jeopardy for the loss of life, limb, liberty, or property. Double Jeopardy must include a combination of criminal and non-criminal accusations and trials resulting from the same action or inaction.
§12 Self-Incrimination
No person may be compelled in any criminal or non-criminal case to be witnesses against themselves or to provide evidence that might incriminate them. This expressly outlaws the use of Plea-Bargains.
Nor should any person be deprived of life, limb, liberty, or property without due process of law, which prohibits the use, among other unjust government powers of Imminent Domain, Civil Asset Forfeiture, and / or holding a person in jail for any time length without a Grand Jury Indictment.
§13 Eminent Domain, Civil Asset Forfeiture
No property may be taken from the rightful owner, except in criminal and non-criminal prosecutions for which an impartial jury decides the defendant owes restitution to the injured party.
Taking private property for public use must not be an option in a Free and Responsible Society. Private land or other items must not be taken from its rightful owner for public use except through taxation that equally applies to all others in the same political jurisdiction according to the rule of law detailed in this Constitution and lawfully authorized by the people. The people are responsible for developing alternatives that do not involve taking private property without owner’s consent.
Compensating an injured party is not considered public use.
No property may be taken from a person based on the faulty assumption that if criminals possess certain items or certain amounts of cash, etc. that any person possessing that item or amount of it is guilty or that they might use those items for a crime. This prohibits what is known as Civil Asset Forfeiture and other types of these laws.
§14 Trial by Jury
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused must receive a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury within the jurisdiction wherein the crime was committed. This prohibits plea-bargaining, as the only people who benefit from such bargains are the guilty and corrupted public officials.
The law passed must name the original jurisdiction.
The definition for Speedy from 1785 must be carried forward into this constitution.
SPEEDY. Quick; swift; nimble; quick of dispatch/> QUICK. Speedy; free from delay.
No place in those definitions from 1785 does it hint that the time exceeds more than just a few hours — not days, weeks, months, or even sometimes years without a trial.
This right may not be waived by any accused person; nor may any government official deny this right; which address the following grievance from The unanimous Declaration:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefit of Trial by Jury:
When detained or arrested, the officer must inform the accused of the nature and cause for the detainment or arrest, as well as inform or reminded the individual that the government cannot force them to offer evidence (finger prints, DNA, identification, etc.) or testimony that might convict them; unless the officer has a constitutionally authorized warrant that demands the evidence.
At the time of the accusation, the officer must, at the time of arrest / detainment provide a copy of the full text of the law or section thereof that the accused is supposed to have violated; thus giving the accused the probability of ending the situation by possibly proving that no crime was committed, if it is proved that the law violates this Constitution. The officer must reference the Constitution, Article and/or Section that the law supports; without which, the Officer offers no proof that the Law is constitutionally enforceable; as this information is required to be present in the law before it is passed and enforceable.
The accused retains the right to question witnesses against them, to gather evidence and witness info for the defense at the time of the arrest, to the assistance of independent counsel for their defense. If the accused is cuffed, the officers must get the names and contact information of all witnesses in the area, and especially those requested by the accused as well as gather the evidence requested by the defense. If officers challenge the validity of such requests, the officers must call the elected defense lawyer and / or the accused persons advisor (or lawyer). If a government office deliberately allows evidence for the defense to be destroyed, this is an act of treason and tyranny. The government’s job is for the Truth. Not merely for an easy conviction.
§15 Revoking Immunity
Revoking immunity presently given to family members, clergy, lawyers, doctors, media, foreign government officials and others with regard to withholding information or evidence of crime is necessary in an Honorable Justice system to maintain a peaceable society.
Though these people should help the individual in trouble, help does not include harboring or otherwise giving aid and comfort to fugitives by not disclosing illegal activity, confessed to or otherwise made known to them; especially when those actions violate other’s rights or damage other’s property. Such immunity qualifies as treason as this provides aid and comfort to an enemy against the People, who can no longer enjoy their safety, security, life, liberty, property, or happiness.
If someone reports a crime to you, including whether or not you are a religious leader, a doctor, a lawyer, or other previously exempted group, you become an accomplice unless you report that information to the law enforcement agencies. Let the criminals live with their own conscience about the crime.
Planning, thinking about, writing about fictitious crimes, or brainstorming about criminal activity does not constitute criminal activity until the participant also commits the act or knowingly benefits from the criminal act.
With Justice, the duty for all involved is to find out what the truth is as it relates to the constitutionality of the law and the crime or accusations at hand. If the prosecution finds evidence that may help free the accused, they must present the information as soon as possible to free the accused. A defense counsel with information, including verbal, written, audio, video, or other form of confessions that may help convict their client, they must also make that information available at the earliest possible moment to the prosecution and to the courts. If the accused person does not repeat the confession before the jury, in an open court, the confession must not be allowed as evidence. However, evidence obtained according to the rule of Law of this Constitution because of that confession must be allowed before the jury.
§16 Long-Form Confession
Any confession by the accused must detail the events of the crime committed in long-form, in open court, and before an impartial jury. A confession does not diminish the penalty. A false confession to protect another person must be considered as obstruction of justice and appropriately prosecuted.
§17 The Guilty but Insanity Plea
The Guilty but Insanity Plea, an automatic admission of guilt, must be available for use by any accused person who chooses to use it. The person using this plea must, as best they can, provide a long-form confession as detailed above, and be informed of the following conditions attached to using this plea:
• The convicted person must serve the required jail or prison time with all other jail or prison inmates for similar crimes, and not in a hospital;
• the person using this plea bears sole responsibility for proving they are sane before their release from custody;
• even after they served their full jail or prison sentence and have not proved their sanity, they must be transferred to a mental hospital.
• Until the person is able to prove they are sane — they remain a danger to society and should not be released into society.
§18 Death Sentence
The Death Sentence must no longer be available within any jurisdiction under this Constitution. It is easier to restore the rights to a wrongly convicted person while they live than it is after they die. See Slavery and Involuntary Servitude for punishing convicted persons.
§19 Criminal and Non-Criminal Cases
Criminal cases are all accusations and prosecutions for violating enacted legislation, regardless of government level, severity of the prohibited action, or amount of the penalty. These laws generally involve violating the rights, person, and / or property of others.
Non-criminal cases are trials between individuals where an individual’s rights and / or personal contracts are violated by another person,business, or government entity; regardless of whether a prohibitive law exists or not; and the offended person seeks restitution. If the non-criminal claim is connected to a legislated crime, the accused may stand trial for the non-criminal claim, or the criminal violation, or both — but the trials, if for both, must take place at the same time and be decided by the same jury.
All court trials, hearings, and other proceedings must have an elected judge, an elected prosecutor, and an elected defense counsel present to assist all parties of each case, assisting the court, answering legal and procedural questions, and examining evidence; ensuring justice for all. This must in no way deny a person from obtaining independent advise for either the defense and / or the prosecution. Any interested citizen may also attend and ask relevant questions during the trial because the outcome has an impact on the society and our common rights.
No fact tried by a jury may be otherwise re-examined in any court except where government or jury corruption is discovered, or unless on appeal initiated by the convicted person presents new evidence to prove their innocence.
With the more serious crimes, the courts may refuse bail, if authorized by a grand jury. The trial date must be no later than the date requested by the defense / defendant; and no later than seven days from date of arrest. The time incarcerated, while awaiting trial must be counted against the total sentence if found guilty. If innocent, the incarcerated person must be compensated at a rate of no less than the nation's minimum wage or $10,00 (whichever is more) per each hour detained / incarcerated.
§20 Cost of Trial Payed by Government/
The courts must issue all trial dates and subpoenas, from both the prosecution-plaintiff and the defense. The appropriate Sheriff’s Department must serve in-hand those subpoenas to the named party’s last known address of record. The court must pay all service fees for both parties. All other fees paid by government via taxes for the prosecution must also be paid or made available for the defense forthe same type expenses. To prevent abuse, the jury may determine frivolous abuses by either party and / or unjust refusal by government to compensate a defendant and charge any part of or all of the costs to the party abusing the services.
§21 Failure to Appear for Trial
Without a court approved extension, if a defendant flees the jurisdiction or fails to appear for trial, the courts must accept such actions by the accused as if the accused presented a written document that allows the courts to proceed with the trial in the accused person’s absence. The court must make note that the named defendant failed to appear. If the accused hired counsel, the hired person along with the elected defense counsel must, as best they can, defend the accused.
If a witness for the Prosecution fails to appear, that person must be considered as an accomplice to the crime This is intended to reduce the numbers of witnesses giving false information or failing to show for trial.
In any criminal or non-criminal case, where the accused fails to appear in person and / or through representation where the jury finds the accused guilty, the court must issue an arrest warrant for the convicted person, which includes the demand for return of the convict when found, regardless of what domestic State or Foreign Country where the accused is found. When captured, the convict must begin serving the required sentence.
Any convicted person may present new evidence that may free them. Those who failed to appear possess limited ability, after the fact, to challenge the credibility of the evidence or recorded witness testimony, and may also challenge the law in an appeal.
In non-criminal cases, if the jury finds one party culpable and they refuses to make suitable plans for restitution at the end of the trial, an order for restitution must issue where financial accounts or real property may be seized to satisfy the judgment, but no benefits or awards may be granted to either party where those damages sought were not detailed in a prior written contract.
§22 Bail and Punishment
Bail and Punishment must not exceed that which the enacted legislation requires and neither cruel nor unusual punishment inflicted. Punishment must not violate this Constitution or other contracts listed in this Constitution.
Slavery and involuntary servitude are not cruel or unusual punishment for criminal activity — so long as the person was duly convicted; which means that their rights have not been violated in order to get the conviction.
§23 Slavery & Involuntary Servitude
Within any political jurisdiction under this Constitution, slavery and involuntary servitude are neither cruel nor unusual in the context of punishing criminal activity. Less-dangerous crimes, where jail or prison is not required, involuntary servitude includes community service. See also the combination of Military and Prison labor.
This system prohibits monetary fines as punishment for any type of crime, minor or major. This system prohibits the Death Penalty as a way to restore a person's rights, if they can later prove their innocence. To punish the criminal, all convicts serve hard labor in prison, jail, or community service.
The tests to determine whether a particular type of labor or the hours worked are either cruel or unusual consist solely of whether or not the labor and / or hours for that type of work are worked by Free Citizens, whether for hire or volunteering.
Convicts do not receive monetary compensation for their labors and will not receive gifts, other than non physical-contact visits and / or written correspondence, which must be monitored and recorded.
All revenue from convict labor helps with victim restorations, supply the raw materials for inmates to grow their own food, make the fabrics for their own clothing, bedding, etc., provide products and services for other government offices and agencies (such as; help to widows, orphans, and elderly); to reduce the tax dollars to operate government, as well as pay for maintenance to the jail and prison facilities.
With this practice, jails and prisons provide the hands-on skill-building education, encouraging the hard-work habits and understanding that Crime No Longer Pays, in the u. S. of A. The Free People also benefit, in that they no longer pay as the victim or the taxpayer. The convicted person also benefits, if innocent, by still being alive to prove their innocence, in addition to the skills they acquire for when released. A wrongfully convicted person is compensated for their wrongfully incarceration, detailed earlier.
§24 Due Process & Equal Protection
No law may infringe upon any individual’s rights, except in cases specifically stated within this Constitution with such purpose being for justice; nor may any person be deprived of life, liberty, or property that results from criminal or non-criminal prosecution without due process of law; nor may any government office deny to any person (resident-citizen or foreigner) within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Every government official (foreign or domestic) or other person conducting business on behalf of a domestic or foreign political jurisdiction must be punished and not escape justice because of their political connections.
§25 Other Rights Retained by the People
Certain rights, enumerated within this Constitution are not be construed in any way to deny, disparage, or otherwise limit or infringe other rights retained by the people. The unanimous Declaration names some other rights retained by the people no matter what our government forms; but is in no way considered a complete list.
Enumerating certain rights within this Constitution work to grant, limit, or forbid government involvement regarding the rights listed.
Failure to mention other rights forbids government interference in those rights until such time as the governed people amend this Constitution to grant to their government some limited power or authority regarding those rights. Granting such power must be done in accord with the statement: That to secure our rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed detailed earlier.
For any state, county, city/town or other political subdivision to regulate any rights not specifically listed in this Constitution – that Government infringement into the people’s rights, without written constitutional authority within this Constitution — is Tyranny and Treason.
Allowing government — for the sake of expediency — to regulate rights not enumerated within this constitution is to open the door for absolute despotism and tyranny by government.
With respect to rights and government powers:
• The people's rights always come first. The question always must be asked: Has this Constitution authorized government infringement into that right? If not, the law is unjust.
• When a right is listed, the smaller political jurisdictions may regulate and punish those activities with more leniency.
• When it comes to political powers granted within this constitution, the smaller political jurisdictions may more strictly limit their local government's exercise of those powers; other wise the powers are off limits to government.
§26 Military Authority
The larger political jurisdiction’s law enforcement, police, sheriffs, militia, and military are subject to the smaller political jurisdiction’s civil authority when assisting them. When acting on their own political jurisdiction's issues and legislation, the larger political jurisdictions must notify the smaller political jurisdictions’ civil authority of their presence and purpose but retain jurisdictional authority. The smaller political jurisdiction's military, militia, and police must assist them as needed. In either case, all requests remain subject to the Rule of Law provided by this Constitution and the other contracts listed in this Constitution.
Law enforcement and military persons must suffer penalties for enforcing laws and following orders that violate The Supreme Law of the Land, as detailed within this constitution. To enforce such unconstitutional laws or follow such unconstitutional orders is an act of treason — giving aid and comfort to an enemy. It must be punished as such to discourage those acts.
§27 Unlawful Entry Into Nation / Illegal Immigration
Anyone suspected (by primarily not being able to communicate in the united States version of the English Language) of having entered these united States unlawfully or having overstayed their Visa, may be asked to present identification. When the individual cannot provide appropriate identification but claims to be a citizen; the detaining law enforcement officer must seek verification from other state and / or federal agencies for obtaining copies of birth records and / or naturalization papers, passports, visas etc. This should be accomplished in less than a three hours. During this time, the individual must also be allowed to make any calls to have papers presented to a local law-enforcement agency or faxed to the detaining officers for verification. If the law enforcement agency detaining the individual cannot acquire any documentation, the accused must receive a speedy, public, and impartial jury trial. If the jury finds the accused guilty, those convicted must serve six months for the first offense and two years for the second offense, in jail or prison, working hard labor alongside convicted citizens before being returned to their home country.
Individuals charged with other crimes, additional trials must be held regarding those charges. The political jurisdiction where the crimes and / or the trial take place must use their general or judicial fund to pay all trial costs. If convicted, the person must serve the appropriate sentence for each crime, as detailed in that law. Sentencing must be the same as if a lawful citizen committed the same crime. Each sentence for each convicted offense must be served one after the other.
Whether a person is a citizen or a foreigner in this constitution’s jurisdiction, lawfully or not, all persons convicted of separate crimes must serve consecutive sentences (one after the other). Anyone convicted of unlawfully entering or living within this constitution’s jurisdiction must also be prohibited from re-entering lawfully for at least ten years after being returned to their home country.
Each time a person enters this constitution’s jurisdiction unlawfully, the penalty doubles. This same doubling applies also to other criminal acts whether the person convicted of that same crime is a citizen or not. The doubling must not be construed so as to apply to different types of crime (such as: robbery = robbery by any other name; and murder = murder by any other name; but robbery ≠ murder and self protection ≠ murder). And just for clarity, no crime is committed out of love; so lumping many different types of crime under one umbrella (such as “hate-crime”) must not exist.
Regarding illegal immigration: Before this article on illegal immigration becomes enforceable, a ninety-day notice must broadcast publicly more than three times daily at random hours for the entire ninety days; being broadcast in the united States of America’s version of the English language. Foreign countries are responsible for accurately translating this for their citizens.
§28 Common Language
For unification and cost-effective government, as well as cost efficient business, every citizen-resident must be able to read, speak, understand, and otherwise communicate in the united States of America's version of the English Language.
K-12 united States American-English language includes International Sign-Language and International Morris-Code that can be used by the blind and / or deaf. This skill benefits other resident-citizens in emergency situations where these forms of communications are beneficial.
People who cannot communicate in the united States American-English Language retain sole responsibility for hiring an interpreter when dealing with government offices or businesses within these united States of America. This language requirement violates no person’s rights, as it supposes all persons voluntarily come to or desire to remain within these united States of America; if not, they may freely leave and the people unlawfully detaining them will be prosecuted for kidnapping and / or false imprisonment — so long as they are not being detained for any other crimes or convictions. This requirement must not be construed in any way to prevent citizens from learning other languages or practicing their desired culture so long as such practices do not unjustly infringe upon other people’s rights or any laws enacted within the Consent of the Governed guidelines of this Constitution.
§29 Right to Vote
The resident-citizen’s right to vote or to receive benefit from any government program or agency offered within these united States must not be denied or abridged by any political jurisdiction or agent under this Constitution except as authorized within this constitution.
Government officials must require an individual to prove their eligibility to vote; in that –
• Are they a citizen and are they taxed?
• Additional requirements, if not taxed; based on age (in that they are old enough);
• Citizenship requirements (in that they are in fact lawful citizens);
• and based on residency requirements (in that they lived in the political jurisdiction long enough and in fact a resident-citizen).
In addition to age, residency, taxation and citizenship no other reasons may exist to prevent a person from voting, once they have passed the public voting-test detailed earlier — Especially, if they pay any taxes at all (sales, income, etc.)
§30 Exclusions from Voting
• Any person still serving a sentence, or any part thereof, for any criminal activity, or non-criminal acts that violate an other person’s right is prohibited from voting; the same individuals is ineligible for other government programs.
• Also excluded are persons who receive government benefits, but this does not exclude honorably discharged military veterans receiving benefits connected with their combat-duty service; so long as it was a constitutionally declared war.
• A convicted person’s family must not become eligible for any government benefits that they were not already eligible to receive prior to the crime. This does not exclude this family from receiving benefits for which they qualified to receive prior to the crime, so long as the family remains qualified after the conviction.
§31 Right of Personal Association
The people possess the right to choose their associates; whether employees, business customers, church or club members, etc., or tenants or employees for non-government funded business or housing, etc.; which must not be infringed, so long as they publicly post the restrictions in ads, fliers, billboards, posters, etc. wherever they advertise those vacancies. Such posting benefits those who might otherwise apply, but would not qualify according to the other person’s standards who makes the offer.
This must not be construed in any manner whatsoever to allow, enable, or encourage criminal activity.
§32 When Rights Appear to Conflict
When two or more people’s rights seem to conflict, the one’s rights should not unjustly violate or unjustly receive greater favor than the other’s rights.
For example: The Job Seeker has a right to work. The Employer has a right to hire and fire anyone, regardless of reason. Social pressure by way of the power of boycotts is far more effective in regulating socially undesirable business hiring and firing practices.
The Job Seeker’s right to work should not negate the Employer’s right to hire someone else; even if that Job Seeker can prove that they are better-qualified. The Job Seeker’s right remains intact — though unfulfilled — as the Employer exercises their right. The Job Seeker still has the right to work anywhere an employer will hire them. The seeker may start their own business, offering products and services that they desire.
On the other hand, the Employer’s right is violated if they are, for whatever the reason, forced to hire or retain a Job Seeker whom they do not wish to hire or continue employing.
As for government, it has no rights with regard to hiring or firing. The government officials responsible for hiring and firing must hire and fire according to the laws and conditions stated within this Constitution; primarily being that of the. qualifications required to perform the duties of the vacant position.
Other laws might protect Job Seekers and employees by requiring employers pay a twelve month wage-benefits severance package to employees laid-off or fired without an otherwise justifiable cause. Employers need not compensate those fired for committing crimes in the workplace. The employer must prove to a jury that the employee had in fact committed a crime in order to avoid paying the severance benefits.
§33 Taxation
Through the legislative powers described within this Constitution; the People within a political jurisdiction who enact legislation must decide all amounts and forms of taxation with regard to how they will fund that to which they consent — if, in fact, two-thirds of the total body of registered votes do consent. Only that political jurisdiction’s resident-citizens are responsible for funding what they authorize.
Any person, no matter their age, if they pay any type of taxes, fines, government fees, levies, and such, they possess the right to vote — so long as they are a citizen.
§34 Grant of Power
Because history repeats too often, this statement must also be repeated throughout this Constitution. No official in any government level or branch under this Constitution may obtain any power or authority that the people subject to its jurisdiction have not already specifically granted to that government (branch or level) in writing via the respective constitution — so long as that grant of power doesnot also violate this Constitution or The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America.
A rticle 10: L and A cquisition, O wnership, A nd U se
This experimental, necessity-based idea rises from the unfortunate experience that too many people spoil the land, water, and air under their possession or control with toxins and do not properly manage the health of these resources to encourage healthy human life.
§1 Land Acquisition
Because the soil / land, water, and air are common resources — in that what any individual does in these spaces migrates and travels from lot to lot over time to become part of a neighbor’s soil, water, and / or air. The people of society must agree to certain rules of use. Thus, these resources are managed by their social / political / government managers in government offices by way of the local Constitution (city, county, state, nation). This should encourage voters to find, elect, and make certain votes are counted properly.
New land acquisition to expand the geographical jurisdiction under this constitution must be consensual between the majority of the total number of registered voters and the known Deeded-Owner for the property. This process only requires the consent from another political jurisdiction, if that political jurisdiction is named as one of the owners of record.
As for Lands of foreign countries, the people (or government officers, if they have lawful authority for that country) must consent to our nation’s acquisition of that land — especially if those people are selling off part of their assets and not joining our union.
Notice must be sent to each political jurisdiction within which the land is situated, regarding such acquisitions, so they may adjust their tax logs and / or challenge the acquisition.
§2 Land Ownership
All Land within this geographical and political jurisdiction is owned equally by all the lawful permanent resident / citizens and controlled equally by two-thirds majority of the total body of registered voters. Elected Officials manage (emphasis added to the word manage) the lands in accord with the terms of this Constitution and the laws passed in accord with consent of the governed with respect to their local constitutions and contracts.
§3 Land Use
The government managers may contract with new residents (temporary, permanent, and / or voting) who desire to rent or lease land for specific uses-type and for a specific time length or go month to month. This replaces the typical real estate taxes.
This revenue becomes part of the General Fund of the smallest political jurisdiction to finance various other government projects, programs, and law enforcement. Using the General Fund, if not already authorized by this Constitution, must be approved by the two-thirds consent of the total number of registered voters in that political jurisdiction.
A rticle 11: S upreme L aw O f T he L and
§1 Standing Constitution
Upon ratification by three-fourths of the total body of registered voters of the united States of America by popular vote in the First House and by three-fourths of the total number of States for the Second House, this Constitution replaces all prior Constitutions (city, county, state, and national), thus requiring each political jurisdiction to renew or rewrite their present constitutions, bringing them up to date with the Supreme Law of the Land, as detailed herein. With this act, the people of each political jurisdiction know, from generation to generation, what powers we granted to our respective government officers.
§2 Supreme Law of the Land
The 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America"; only laws and treaties made under the authority of The Founding Charter and in pursuance of The Constitution constitute The Supreme Law of the Land.
All government personnel, whether elected, appointed, hired, contracted, volunteering, or otherwise conducting business on behalf of our governments are bound by the terms of this Constitution.
Any laws or other acts of government that conflict with this Constitution are unenforceable, they are acts of tyranny and despotism.
§3 Independent Founding Charter
Any changes to or replacement of this Constitution does not alter or affect our nation's Founding Charter, which is named, The unanimous Declaration of the [then thirteen and now fifty] united States of America, 1776. It lawfully is a stand-alone, separate, and independent document / contract / law that only the body referred to as the governed, our nation’s registered voters may unanimously and lawfully alter it.
§4 Amending or Replacing
The same legislative process detailed earlier in This Constitution for proposing laws must be used to amend or completely replace this Constitution; but three-fourths of the total number of registered voters and three-fourths of the total States must consent to the proposed amendment or replacement to effect the ratification.
A rticle 12: R atification
The lawful creation of and enforcement of a new contract must be done in accord with the terms of the prior contract that it alters or replaces. In this instance, that prior contract is The Constitution for the United States of America.
§1 Ratification
When three-quarters of the total number of registered voters within these united States and three-quarters of the total number of states, in accord with Article 4 if this Constitution: The Legislative Branch, approve this Constitution, it becomes effective and binding on all political jurisdictions that are now and may become part of these united States of America. These terms fully exceed The Constitution for the United States of America, Article 5 by including the popular vote to determine the respective State-Vote.
§2 Consent Confirmation
On July 4th 2020, the governed people, by signing this Ratification Signature-Ballot, granting our Consent, do Ratify and put into effect The 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America", binding ourselves to the terms detailed herein. Theterms herein meeting or exceeding the terms required by this constitution and The Constitution for the United States of America.
When completed, official copies of The 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America" must be sent to the government office of every political jurisdiction within these united States of America notifying them that we are altering our present form of government from that of a Republic to that of a Limited Direct Bicameral-Legislative Democracy with an Executive and Judicial Representative-Republic Form of Government. Failure of any political jurisdiction to receive a copy, does not nullify this Constitution. A copy will be sent to them on request by any political jurisdiction requesting their certified copy.
§3 Mutual Pledge
To support and defend The unanimous Declaration of the united States of America & The 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America" against enemies foreign and domestic; with a firm reliance on the protection of divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor to preserve our rights and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity; we ordain and establish The 2020 Founding Charter & Constitution for "The United States of America".
When unified for protecting each other’s rights along with our will to properly, whether we like each other or not and especially if we don't, we unify to enforce our lawful authority over our governments — we truly are Free People.

CleanHonestGov.Com, created and produced by Daniel M. Kingery, revives the design by which we are supposed to lawfully, constitutionally, and contractually hold our government personnel accountable to our nation's constitutional contract. That contract, to which, many of whom swore oath to defend against enemies, foreign and domestic.
We've let our military and police off the hook for not arresting government officers who pass unconstitutional laws. We let them off the hook for not arresting fellow officers for violating the constitution by enforcing those unconstitutional laws. — We let them and ourselves off the hook while violating other people's rights.
CleanHonestGov.Com, shows how easy it is for the people to properly control their government.
CleanHonestGov.Com disproves most of what formal government-run schools about Vote-counting.
CleanHonestGov.Com resuscitates 1700's information as it was intended for us to use, even today.
