A Call for Action & Reclamation

Michael Simone : January 15, 2010

No longer are the interest, objectives and agenda of our elected officials the same as those of the People, regardless of their party, or once they take office

Time has come for all Americans to stand up, put their foot down, exorcise their rights under the constitution and take action to quickly and responsibly take back the control and power we have bestowed upon our out of control government and lawmakers.

For the past seventy years, we trusted the lawmakers we elected to protect our Country its Constitution and our unalienable rights, liberties and freedoms granted by our Creator and as further enumerated in the Constitution by our Founders. We trusted that they would put the interest and rights of the People far and above those of their own objectives and goals. However, they have habitually violated our trust by diluting the meaning of our Constitution as they continually create policies and legislation to suit their own political agenda, ideological goals and elitist views as to what is best for the “Good of the People.” Throughout this period we witnessed our lawmakers erode every basic right, liberty and freedom we share in this Country while accumulating greater control and power over the People through poor policies, excessive taxation, financial irresponsibility, economically unsubstantiated spending and socialistic entitlement programs or welfare. They are leading us down the path of a Socialistic Welfare State with the ultimate result of having us subject to a New World Order. This is a dangerous agenda that can only put America under the control and dictatorship of the United Nations.

In the past twenty years the corrupt practices and policies by lawmakers, violations of our trust, the burden of over taxation, reckless government spending, the political self-serving interest and the increased control and power over the American people has become increasingly more prevalent and rampant.No longer are the interest, objectives and agenda of our elected officials the same as those of the People, regardless of their party, or once they take office. Therefore, as afforded the People under the Constitution, it is our solemn right, duty and obligation as Americans, to reign in our government and lawmakers, to take all necessary actions to restore the fundamental principles of our Constitution and demand strict accountability, common sense and trust in our elected officials and government. We must further limit our government’s size, scope and power by putting in place revisions to our legal system and Constitution to thwart and prohibit further irresponsible actions of government and those we elect to mange it. To restore government to one of the People by the People and for the People.

Should we continue to allow our government and elected officials to go unabated and without restriction or regard for our Constitution and the unalienable rights of the people, the delicate balance of Democracy and Freedom that teeters on the scale between Tyranny and Anarchy will vastly shift to one of Tyrannical Rule by government. A country and its people controlled by a Ruler or Rulers(the New World Order). We have been rapidly heading in this direction for the past thirty years. This is evident in governments support for and from Socialistic Workers Unions, like Andy Stern and the SEIU, or in its creation of Entitlement programs like Welfare, Social Security, Medicare and now a government imposed and run Health Care system. All these Entitlements are deeply rooted in socialistic or communistic principles and ideals. The same methods and programs that were used by Rulers or Kings to maintain control and power over the people of their society and civilization. In recorded history every one of these societies had eventually collapsed under revolt of its people. Why? For the simple reason, this type of system ultimately leads to one of slavery as opposed to every humans desire for self rule and freedom.

We must not allow our government to become any larger or powerful over the American people. In fact we must take back much of the power we have granted. Neither, can we allow our elected officials to further advance their Progressive, elitist ideals that only result in desensitizing and dehumanizing socialistic programs, practices and entitlements. Otherwise, should we choose not to ACT now, history will repeat itself and we will find ourselves having bestowed upon government and lawmakers’ total power and control over our lives, liberties and freedoms, as they lead us into tyrannical rule.

This CANNOT be allowed to occur in America! Not if we believe in the words “land of the free and home of the brave.” We can no longer accept nor afford to allow government to grow any larger nor gain any further power over its people. We MUST put limitations on our elected officials and eradicate the Progressive ideology and individuals in both Democrat and Republican parties who have gradually eroded the very foundation and strengths of our country. We MUST STOP them from causing further damage through creating additional socialistic entitlement programs or economic policies which defy all economic principles, logic and common sense. Programs and policies that through history have been proven not to work or improve but, exacerbate and prolong our weakened economy and dollar. We must ACT and ACT NOW, to reverse these destructive trends and damage to our liberties and freedoms. If for nothing else we owe it to our children and their descendants.

We can no longer accept nor afford a bigger government that operates or condones, unsubstantiated or economically unsound spending, operates without a Balanced Budget, bigger and more expensive entitlement programs, increased government hiring, government investment and control in our nation’s largest corporation’s under the control of labor unions, its open support and expansion of labor unions, tolerate further business or personal income tax increases to fund government boondoggles nor can we allow governments adoption of unrealistic trade and commerce practices, regulations and excessive taxation which has caused the erosion and evaporation of business and industry in America, weakened the dollar and put this country at great peril of insolvency. This is the People's Country NOT the governments and lawmakers!

For these reasons, Republicans, Democrats, Independents, Conservative or Liberal must stand up and unite under ONE Flag and ONE Party. A Party of the People. Together, we will arm ourselves with the Constitution. We will take every action required and available to protect and preserve our Constitution our Country and insure our unalienable RIGHTS to Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Property. 

We will start by first radically changing the makeup of our incumbent lawmakers in the upcoming 2010 mid-term and 2012 national elections. We will remove those that are corrupt, those who voted for Healthcare reform or Cap & Trade, Those who support  or champion the expansion of labor unions over individual Right To Work laws, those who broke or failed to live up to their campaign promises, those who refuse to be transparent and without the spin, refuse to tell us exactly where they stand on the issues and those who have declared themselves as Progressives in government.

We will replace these elected officials by electing new qualified candidates that demonstrate they are trustworthy and tell it like it is as to where they stand on the issues without the spin of “political correctness”. And, they must possess a high degree of integrity and common sense. In exchange for our support of their candidacy, we will require, regardless of their party affiliation, they adopt the “PEOPLES PLATFORM” on which they will also run. These individual candidates will be asked to endorse, implement and/or support the following platform of concerns and changes in government within their first term.

  • Will put forth and/or support legislation for a Balanced Budget Amendment.
  • Will immediately address and begin government consolidation and downsizing while cutting spending across the board by no less than 10%
  • Will put forth and/or support legislation replacing the existing IRS Tax Code with either a National sales tax or Flat tax on all individuals and business that must result in a drastic lowering of tax and provide indexed restrictions on future increases in the tax rate.
  • Will put forth and/or support legislation mandating government immediately begin paying down the national debit
  • Will put forth and/or support an Term Limit Amendment. 2 terms for Senate and 6 terms for Congress.
  • Will put forth and/or support legislation requiring the Annual Auditing of the Federal Reserve
  • Will put forth and/or support legislation to repeal Health Care Reform or Cap & Trade Bill proposed or passed before their election
  • Insist and demand that government ceases from any further Stimulus or TARP spending and that repayment of prior advances are only used to pay down our National Debt     
  • Eliminate the practice and use of Omnibus Bills, which contain “Pork Barrel Spending”, legislation or creation of laws unrelated to the primary bills intent and purpose or special concessions in return for a lawmaker’s favorable vote. No more convoluted bills or deals for votes!
  • Insist and demand strict adherence to and interpretation of our Constitution of all legislation proposed by lawmakers before passing

We will further use the peoples Constitutional Right to petition our government for Redress of our grievances and further demand an immediate response to the many requests of Redress previously submitted and that have intentionally been ignored by government.

There are many more actions and changes we need our new legislators to make but implementing these few will set the tone, get us back to fundamental basics and get us moving once again in the direction of economic and financial stability while protecting our Country. We must remain engaged throughout this entire process to achieve our desired goals.

Should all our efforts fail or go unheeded by our government and lawmakers we must then exorcise our last option and Final Right. Abolish Our Government and replace it with new Government and Constitution in which our Founders would be proud.

    Join the Convention Of States
    Reign In the Federal Government

    WHY A CONVENTION OF STATES?

    Simple: to bring power back to the states and the people, where it belongs. Unelected bureaucrats in Washington, D.C. shouldn’t be allowed to make sweeping decisions that impact millions of Americans. But right now, they do. So it all boils down to one question: Who do you think should decide what’s best for you and your family? You, or the feds? We’d vote for the American people every single time.
