The Constitution and the Founders

The vision of our founders that was captured in the document we call the constitution is nothing short of a miracle. As we look at the political environment today, it is clear how truly brilliant our founders actually were. The Constitution was created to limit the government from controlling the lives of the governed. For the first time in history the people were put in charge of the government instead of government bureaucrats controlling the people.

You would never know we had a Constitution if you were dropped in this country from another planet. If you were a Founder who had risen from the grave this country’s operations would be an obvious indication the country had somehow been take over by a coup d etat. The obvious questions our Founders would have:

Who allowed the Federal Government to break the law of the constitution? This would have to be answered with We the People. We the people have ignored our duty to hold our politicians accountable to the law of the land. We are also responsible for electing politicians that have failed to abide by the Constitution.

What would compel the people to give up local control for a central bureaucracy?The Founders always suspected the local and state governments would be reluctant to give power to a central government. It was such a contention at our founding that the Bill of Rights had to be added and one of the most contentious amendments was the Tenth. Without the Tenth Amendment the Constitution would not have been passed. As they argued, there were only a few responsibilities the Federal Government would be better at which were very few. The most agreed upon functions were the defense of the country and foreign diplomacy. Now the Federal Government is involved in how much water we flush down the toilets and the light bulbs we can buy.  Think about that.

How did the Supreme Court become a legislative body? The Founders argued that the Supreme Court was simply a judge not a creator of legislation. They believed if the Supreme Court ruled a law to be unconstitutional the Congress would go back and re-write the legislation to comply with the constitutional guidelines. The idea that 9 individuals can dictate laws is exactly that, a dictatorship.

The Founders argued that human nature was known well enough to put safeguards in place to harness the evil instincts and incentivize the good instincts. They also understood natural law that is the foundation of freedom from the enslavement from groups, especially government groups.  The Constitution is simply a piece of paper without politicians willing to fight and die for it. Our Founders were willing to die for it. The politicians today don’t even read it.

And that is the fault of We the People…

    Rich there is much I agree with you on this but as far as the why we the people allowed this is very simple and almost never looked at.

    The truth of the matter is without the Declaration of Independence no Constitution would exist, that this document solely exists to secure and support Liberty as announced in the Declaration of Independence which is an act that supports life to do what it does best and this is to pursue ideas that create a greater way of life for life.

    When legislation is created not using these 3 principals for which were announced shall we see what we were warned of. This was not because these were brilliant men but rather because they were experienced men with great observation skills. My argument is fully verifiable should you look yourself. The Declaration of Independence is an applicable document to be used for choice making in the direction of A Republic which in all intense purposes totally supports and allows life. Liberty is no different and when the constitution is applied and adhered to does what? Limits Government to allow life.

    It is very hard for me to see so many scholars of the constitution miss this very basic to the foundation of this very nation because it is the very basic binding principals that are the glue and give us solid ground for which to stand upon without such waiver. To refute it, disregard it is to disallow ourselves such a foundation to us. The reason life holds far more authority than that of ignorant men is because as proven in all of history there are those who will intentionally distort the truth for their own self gain for power and it always results in abusive powers to serve them and not to serve life at all.

    The financiers of the universe have been at their practice of manipulation for a very long time, just look at the consistency of all history and what common corruption exists? Persistence is how all things are done and who has been the most persistent? The people standing upon solid ground knowing full well their foundation and why, or have world financiers been far more persistent in all of time?

    Our ignorance of what was presented to us over 200 years ago is ours and no others and is our exact weakness. Know your foundation, know why it exists, understand its terms and full application and be far more determined than those always wanting to throw it away. To be persistent in the use of such a foundation will fully set the direction of A Republic in that, it is Life in full support of life, not in control of life, not into the destruction of life nor the manipulation of life and you will find no other more persistent to get this across to each and everyone of you because I am life in support of such a life as A Republic which is public allowed to be heard on the basis they are instilled with by its full understanding of itself.

    We can interpret the constitution all day long for the next 200 years and will get no further until we understand our basis of WHY it is here. The founders knew and warned us and the truth is we refused to listen and our blame is our own and no others.

    Now I suggest to each and every one of you to reread in a new time both the established Declaration Of Independence as well the original draft, why? Because as I discovered the only thing in the Declaration of Independence either the original draft or established were documented truths only, not opinion and some of these truths were removed for a reason, by who and for what reason? This only shows the oppressors of that era were in the presence at the time this document was established and who and what they were. Through the skill of Thomas Jefferson was able to mask from them such truths to be exposed as they reside in the original. These truths are instrumental for decision making in a direction and the direction intended was that of a Republic.

    Look at these all as documented truths to use in all decision making for Life for a future as A Republic and now what do you see in such a picture? The truth. This is essential for each life to base the decision for themselves on should they be in support of themselves by such ACTS.

    Deliver to ourselves what we know is true is our knowledge of such and our determination to pursue and deliver to ourselves what we are sure of and not in interpretation of. Understanding is always clear or no understanding exists and results of such acts are always visible or they are not period. Maybe a new window has opened to some old truths sitting dormant for so long its not true.
