Entry: The U.S. Constitution is Not Democratic -- and Why That's a Good Thing Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/the_us_constitution_is_not_democratic_and_why_thats_a_good_thing#17807 Post contents: Mr Gutzman I enjoyed reading your book...the "Declaration of Independence", which only passed by one vote...was a declaration of "national" independence....not personal independence...the nationalisation "push" had been in the works since Franklin's Albany Project in 1754....ALL our "foundering fathers" were heavily invested in "land deals" everywhere but especially west of the Alleghenies( hell, every colony was a land deal(charter//payback from the winner//loser of the latest English Civil War), not a "state")....thus the "resolution" of the Seven Years War....the first "World War" was not favorable to their real estate speculations...nor supportive of the loans they had taken out to finance them....England, of course, enlarged their prescence in the colonies from a regulatory to also a revenue one...in attempt to pay for their very expensive war with France...that's what got the ball rolling...fast forwarding....the Morris-Washington-Hamilton-Paine group was clearly on the "inside"....and the Madison-Mason-Henry-Jefferson group was on the "outside" of the inside...their was absolutely NO difference in principle...just in positioning(access)....Federalists & Anti-Federalists all shared the same goals & ambitions...it was only who was going to get to call the tune...the Constitutional Convention was a coup....held in secrecy....its records maintained in secrecy for forty years...the word "empire" was used exclusively....the word freedom was never mentioned...and the bulk of the time was spent "negotiating" tariffs...constitutions are "espoused" to regulate the state...civil laws are intended to regulate the individual....the Bill of Rights was never included and only offered begrudgingly, out of neccesity, to get the "incorporation" done...that is why they had "Madison" write it...they knew he wouldn't do anything silly....even with this Bill of Rights....which most Americans have always considered to be the "Constitution"...the whole scam barely passed...and only with shenanigans that would make Daley, Johnson & Diebolt blush...overall,like every other example....the whigs did the tories bidding...they too aspired to be right tories some day....so to finally get to the point....the constitution was merely the "legalizing" of crimes past, present & future...no contract exists without the parties being able to enforce or exit absent enforcement...it took the Civil War....which started in 1790 not 1860 to establish...as we all now know...this is no Bill of Rights, there is no separation of power...there is no consent of the "governed"....it is now exactly what it was always intended to be in 1790(which is something the Paulistas don't seem to appreciate)....the few livin' off the many...the latifundia & the merchant princes, messaged by their accompanying "court pens" holdin' up the "levee un grand masse"...it always comes down to the debt...who goin' to make me whole...nationalization is neccessary to compell the assumption & payment of debt...that's what all Philidelphias" are about & nothin' more...Profs Holton & Bouton & Shalhope have done commendable work on this very disturbing problem.
