I IS HE DUY o jurors, sheriffs, bailiffsand justices to resist all inringements

upon the rights o the people without delay.

Tomas Jefferson said: Whenever people arewell-inormed they can be trusted with theirown government. Clearly the governmentcannot be in charge o deciding or themselveswhether or not they should indict themselveson criminal charges. Tis is precisely why wehave so much corruption in our government.It is the duty o the people to stand up as theaithul and wise stewards (Luke 12:42), andbring the servantswho think themselves master

back into subjection.

COMMON LAW IS COMMON SENSE

Te question each jurist must ask themselves is:Is there an injured party? Tere is a Common

Law principle which states that or there to bea crime, there must first be a victim (corpusdelecti); the state cannot be the injured party. Inthe absence o a victim, there can be no crime.Tis is what the grand jurist must discover.

Te constitutions o most o our states assertthat all power is inherent in the people; thatthey may exercise it by themselves, in all casesto which they think themselves competent, (asin electing their unctionaries executive and

legislative, and deciding by a jury o themselves,both act and law, in all judiciary cases inwhich any act is involved) or they may ask byrepresentatives, reely and equally chosen; thatit is their right and duty to be at all times armed;to reedom o person; reedom o religion;

reedom o property; and reedom o the press.(Tomas Jefferson, letter to John Cartwright; June 5, 1824;Te Tomas Jefferson Papers, Library o Congress)

The jury has the power to bring a verdict in the

teeth of both law and fact.Oliver Wendell Holmes, Justice

US Supreme Court, 1902

Central to the history o trial by jury is theright o jurors to vote not guilty i the law isunjust or unjustly applied. When jurors acquit

a actually guilty deendant, we say that thejury nullified the law. Te Founding Fathersbelieved that juries in criminal trials had a roleto play as the conscience o the community,and relied on juries nulliying to hold the gov-ernment to the principles o the Constitution.

Trust in the jury is, after all, one of the

cornerstones of our entire criminal jurisprudence,

and if that trust is without foundation we must

re-examine a great deal more than just the

nullification doctrine.

Judge David L. Bazelon

Tere may be no eature more distinctive oAmerican legal culture than the criminal trialjury. Americans have a deep and stubborn

devotion to the belie that the guilt or innocenceo a person accused o crime can only be judgedairly by a jury o his peers. Tis notion is aparticularly American one, although it wasinherited rom English common law during theColonial era.

KENTUCKY RESOLUTIONS. A serieso resolutions drawn up by Jefferson, andadopted by the legislature o Kentucky in1799, protested against the alien and seditionlaws, declared their illegality, announced the

strict constructionist theory o the ederalgovernment, and declared nullification to bethe rightul remedy.

JUSTICE. It is the duty o the Justice to dojustice. In common law, the titleJusticeis given

in England to the judges o the kings bench andthe common pleas, and in America to the judgeso the Supreme Court o the United States ando the appellate courts o many o the states. Inthe most extensive sense o the word, justicediffers little rom virtue, or it includes

within itsel the whole circle o virtues. Yet thecommon distinction between them is that thatwhich, considered positively and in itsel, iscalled virtue, when considered relatively andwith respect to others has the name o justice.

But justice, being in itsel a part o virtue,is confined to things simply good or evil, andconsists in a mans taking such a proportion othem as he ought. [Bouvier]

THE SOURCE OF VIRTUE. Found in Luke

6:19: And the whole multitude sought to touchhim: or there went virtue out o him, andhealed them all.

Tereore a Justice is to reflect divine qualities,as we read in Phil 4:8: Finally, brethren,

whatsoever things are true, whatsoeverthings are honest, whatsoever things are just,whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever thingsare lovely, whatsoever things are o good report;i there be any virtue, and i there be any praise,think on these things.

SHERIFF: TOP COP

America will never be destroyed from the

outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will

be because we destroyed ourselves.

Abraham Lincoln

Justice Scalia, writing or the majority ina 1997 decision, said that the States are not


6/48

6

subject to ederal direction, and that the USCongress only had discreet and enumeratedpowers, and that ederal impotency was ren-dered express by the enth Amendment. Heconfirmed that the Sheriff is the Chie LawEnorcement Officer (CLEO) o the county,and also proclaimed that the States retained aninviolable sovereignty. Scalia went even urther

in this landmark decision, one in which twosmall-town sheriffs headed the Feds off at thepass and sent them on their way. Scalia, in hisinfinite obligation to the Constitution, took thisentire ruling to the tenth power when he said,

Te Constitution protects us rom our ownbest intentions...so that we may resist the temp-tation to concentrate power in one location asan expedient solution to the crisis o the day.Obviously the Sheriff is the Peoples last line odeense against a government gone rouge.

Te county sheriff is the last line o deensewhen it comes to upholding and deending theConstitution. Te sheriff s duties and obligationsgo ar beyond writing tickets, arresting criminalsand operating jails. Te Sheriff also has an

obligation to protect the Constitutional rightso the citizens in our counties. Tis includes theright to ree speech, the right to assemble, andthe right to bear arms. Remember the oath.

Sheriffs took an oath to uphold and deend

the Constitution rom enemies oreign ANDdomestic. In the history o our world, it isgovernment tyranny that has violated thereedoms granted to us by our Creator morethan any other. And it is the duty o the sheriff

to protect their counties rom those that wouldtake away our reedomsboth oreign ANDdomesticwhether it is a terrorist rom Yemenor a bureaucrat rom Washington, DC.

BAILIFF. Officers who perorm the duties osheriffs within liberties or privileged jurisdic-

tions, in which ormerly the kings writ couldnot be executed by the sheriff. One to whomsome authority, care, guardianship, or jurisdic-tion is delivered, committed, or entrusted; onewho is deputed or appointed to take charge oanothers affairs; an overseer or superintendent;

a keeper, protector, or guardian; a steward.(Spellman:. A sheriff s officer or deputy. 1 Bl. Comm.34); A court attendant.

It is the duty o all above to correct injusticein as much as it is in their power to do so. I

correction is not possible, it is the duty o thecourt officer(s) to report the problem to theprotectors o the Peoplethe Grand Juryinwhos hand justice has been entrusted.

ALL IS MINE. Job 41:11: Whatsoever is

under the whole heaven is mine. Ezekiel18:4: Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul othe ather, so also the soul o the son is mine.Exodus 19:5: Now thereore, i ye will obeymy voice indeed, and keep my covenant, thenye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me aboveall people: or all the earth is mine. Psalms50:12: I I were hungry, I would not tell thee:or the world is mine, and the ullness thereo.Proverbs 8:14: Counsel is mine, and soundwisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.

GOVERNMENT BY CONSENT

Our ounders purposely placed the powero the Grand Jury in the Bill o Rights tomake it clear that it belongs to the people,

and the government is not to violate it. It isthe ultimate power o the people whichallows them to consent or not to the actions


10/48

10

o their servant government. It also preventsgovernment rom unrighteous prosecutionsby orcing the government to seek permissionrom the people beore criminal charges can befiled; i the people reuse it cannot go orward.By understanding this principle it becomesclear that the government has no authority tocontrol your behavior, and thereore neither do

legislatorswithout your consent.Te Declaration o Independence says:We hold these truths to be sel-evident, that

all men are created equal, that they are endowedby their Creator with certain unalienable

Rights, that among these are Lie, Liberty andthe pursuit o Happiness. Tat to secure theserights, Governments are instituted among Men,deriving their just powers rom the consent othe governed.

ALL MEN DECIDE whether they want toparticipate in the institutions o men or not. TeUnited States Supreme Court confirmed thiswhen they said: every man is independento all laws, except those prescribed by nature.

He is not bound by any institutions ormed byhis ellowman without his consent. (Cruden v.Neale, 2 N.C. 338 May erm, 1796)

Tere are only three ways a court can heara criminal complaint: (1) One or more o the

people sign a sworn affidavit that they havebeen injured; (2) A prosecutor, on behal o thegovernment, brings an accusation beore theGrand Jury and the Grand Jury either indictsor does nothing; (3) Te Grand Jury by itsown will, can investigate merely on suspicion

that the law is being violated, or even becauseit wants assurance that it is not; and i it findswrongdoing it can present it to the court and


11/48

11

it must go to trial. No one can second guessthe Grand Jury, unless the Grand Jurys actionsviolate anothers unalienable rights.

Consent and Jurisdiction: its all aboutConsent and Jurisdiction. In order to possessliberty it is extremely important that youunderstand consent: our servant governmentcannot do anything without your consent.

Any authority our servants have is by ourconsent; i they act outside their authority theyare subject to criminal charges under US Codes42 and 18, and are liable or damages under USCodes and common law.

Te Fifh Amendment states: No personshall be held to answer or a capital, or other-wise inamous crime, unless on a presentmentor indictment o a Grand Jury, thereore ourservant government requires the people to getan indictment (grand jury). Judges (servant)have no authority to make a ruling or a judg-ment on people (master) without your consent.In legal terms, when the judge asks you do youunderstand?he means, do you stand under the

authority o this court? So, when you say Yes,you just gave him/her jurisdiction over you!

Our U.S. Constitution only authorizescommon law courts, also known as courts orecord. A court o record removes the power

o the Judge to make a ruling; his role is thato the administrator o the court. Te finaldecision maker is the tribunal, who is eitherthe sovereign plaintiff or a jury. Remember,the servant cannot rule over the master; can the

clay rule over the potter?Every man is independent o all laws,

except those prescribed by nature. He is not

Constitution are involved, there can be no rulemaking or legislation which would abrogatethem. (Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436, 491)

God breaks down the law as ollows: AndJesus answered him, Te first o all the com-mandments is, Hear, O Israel; Te Lord ourGod is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lordthy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul,and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength:this is the first commandment. And the sec-ond is like, namely this, Tou shalt love thyneighbour as thysel. Tere is none other com-mandment greater than these (Mark 12:29-31).

Although it is a sin, punishable onlyby the Judge o the Universe, to break thecommandment to love in your mind, words, anddeeds. It does not become a crime punishable bymanuntil your words and deeds are expressed

in actions that injure another.Tomas Jefferson said: I would rather be

exposed to the inconveniences attending toomuch liberty than those attending too small adegree o it.

I one o the people exercises his ree will to dosuch things as carry a weapon, travel, practicelaw, park without depositing money in a meter,use hemp, pharmaceuticals, alcohol, vitamins,minerals or any other substance or medicinal

or recreational purposes, legislators do not havethe authority to impose upon the people a fine,a license, or make such rights a crime.

RIGHTS AND SOVEREIGNTY

Only people are sovereign and have rights.Bureaucrats, in their capacity, are not sovereignand have no rights. Tey have authority given


14/48

14

by the people and are subject to the statutes.Te state cannot diminish rights o the people.(Hurtado v. People o the State o Caliornia, 110 U.S.516)

Te assertion o ederal rights [Bill oRights], when plainly and reasonably made,is not to be deeated under the name o localpractice. (Davis v. Wechsler, 263 US 22, 24)

Where rights secured by the Constitutionare involved, there can be no rule makingor legislation which would abrogate them.(Miranda v. Arizona, 384 US 436, 491)

Tere can be no sanction or penaltyimposed upon one because o this exercise oconstitutional rights. (Sherer v. Cullen, 481 F 946)

Sovereignty itsel is, o course, not subject tolaw, or it is the author and source o law. (Yick

Wo v. Hopkins, 118 US 356, 370). o deprive thePeople o their sovereignty, it is first necessaryto get the People to agree to submit to theauthority o the entity they have created. Tat isdone by getting them to claim they are citizenso that entity (see Constitution or the U.S.A.,

XIV Amendment, or the definition o a citizeno the United States).

LICENSING LIBERTY

No state shall convert a liberty into a

license, and charge a ee thereore. (Murdock v.Pennsylvania, 319 U.S. 105)

I the State converts a right (liberty) intoa privilege, the citizen can ignore the licenseand ee and engage in the right (liberty) with

impunity. (Shuttlesworth v. City o Birmingham,Alabama, 373 U.S. 262)

REMEDY FOR EVERY INJURY

Every right when with-held must have a remedy,

and every injury its proper redress.William Blackstone

In the third volume o his Commentaries,page 23, Blackstone states two cases in whicha remedy is afforded by mere operation o law.

In all other cases, he says, it is a general andindisputable rule that where there is a legalright, there is also a legal remedy by suit oraction at law whenever that right is invaded.

And aferwards, on page 109 o the same

volume, he says, I am next to consider suchinjuries as are cognizable by the Courts o com-mon law. And herein I shall or the present onlyremark that all possible injuries whatsoeverthat did not all within the exclusive cognizance

o either the ecclesiastical, military, or maritimetribunals are, or that very reason, within thecognizance o the common law courts o justice,or it is a settled and invariable principle in thelaws o England that every right, when with-held, must have a remedy, and every injury its

proper redress. (5 U.S. 137, Marbury v. Madison)

Te Government o the United States hasbeen emphatically termed a government olaws, and not o men. It will certainly cease todeserve this high appellation i the laws urnish

no remedy or the violation o a vested legalright. (Marbury v. Madison, 5 U.S. 137, 1803)

Tat statutes which would deprive a citizeno the rights o person or property without aregular trial, according to the course and usage o

common law, would not be the law o the land.(Hoke vs. Henderson,15, N.C.15,25 AM Dec 677)


16/48

16

...Te right to be let alonethe mostcomprehensive o rights and the right mostvalued by civilized men. o protect that right,every unjustifiable intrusion by the governmentupon the privacy o the individual, whatever themeans employed, must be deemed a violationo the Fourth Amendment. (Olmstead v. U.S.,277 U.S. 438, 478, 1928)

COURT

Te court belongs to the sovereign, plaintiff(people). Blacks Law Dictionary, 5th Edition,page 318 defines the courtas Te person and suit

o the sovereign; the place where the sovereignsojourns with his regal retinue, wherever thatmay be. In the US Supreme Court case Isbill v.Stovall, the court was defined as An agency othe sovereign created by it directly or indirectly

under its authority, consisting o one or moreofficers, established and maintained or thepurpose o hearing and determining issues olaw and act regarding legal rights and allegedviolations thereo, and o applying the sanctionso the law, authorized to exercise its powers in

the course o law at times and places previouslydetermined by lawul authority.

JUDICIAL NOICE, or knowledge uponwhich a judge is bound to act without havingit proved in evidence. (Blacks Law 4th edition)

ake Judicial notice that judges are bound byoath to obey American Jurisprudence book.

JUDGES SWORN TO OBEY. Since theconstitution is intended or the observanceo the judiciary as well as other departmentso government and the judges are sworn tosupport its provisions, the courts are not atliberty to overlook or disregard its commands


17/48

17

or counteract evasions thereo, it is their dutyin authorized proceedings to give ull effectto the existing constitution and to obey allconstitutional provisions irrespective o theiropinion as to the wisdom or the desirabilityo such provisions and irrespective o theconsequences, thus it is said that the courtsshould be in our alert to enorce the provisions

o the United States Constitution and guardagainst their inringement by legislative fiator otherwise in accordance with these basicprinciples, the rule is fixed that the duty in theproper case to declare a law unconstitutional

cannot be declined and must be perormedin accordance with the delivered judgment othe tribunal beore which the validity o theenactment it is directly drawn into question.I the Constitution prescribes one rule and thestatute another in a different rule, it is the duty

o the courts to declare that the Constitutionand not the statute governs in cases beore themor judgment.(16Am Jur 2d., Sec. 155:)

LAW OF THE LAND

This Constitution, and the laws of the UnitedStates 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; and the judges

in every state shall be bound thereby, anythingin the Constitution or laws of any State to the

contrary notwithstanding.US Constitution

Tus, the particular phraseology o the

constitution o the United States confirmsand strengthens the principle, supposed to beessential to all written constitutions, that a law


18/48

18

repugnant to the constitution is void, and thatcourts, as well as other departments, are boundby that instrument. Afer more than 200 yearsthis decision still stands. (Marbury v. Madison 5U.S. 137, 1803)

All cases which have cited Marbury v.Madison case to the Supreme Court have neverbeen overturned. (See Shephards Citation oMarbury v. Madison)

Te constitution was ordained and establishedby the people or the United States o America,aka government. Tereore government wascreated by an act o the people. Tereore thecreation cannot trump the creator.

I any statement, within any law, which ispassed, is unconstitutional, the whole law isunconstitutional. (Marbury v. Madison: 5 US 137,1803)

Tereore no legislationthat statuteswhich would deprive a citizen o the rightso person or property without a regular trial,according to the course and usage o commonlaw, would not be the law o the land. (Hoke vs.Henderson,15, N.C.15,25 AM Dec 677)

Where rights secured by the Constitutionare involved, there can be no rule makingor legislation which would abrogate them.(Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436, 491)

INTERPRETATION. Any constitutionalprovision intended to coner a benefit shouldbe liberally construed in avor in the clearlyintended and expressly designated beneficiary.

Ten a constitution should receive aliteral interpretation in avor o the Citizen, isespecially true, with respect to those provisionswhich were designed to saeguard the liberty


19/48

19

and security o the Citizen in regard to personand property. (16Am Jur 2d: 16Am Jur 2d., Sec. 97;Bary v. United States - 273 US 128 )

NO EMERGENCY HAS JUST CAUSE TO

SUPPRESS THE CONSTITUTION

While an emergency cannot create powerand no emergency justifies the violation o any othe provisions o the United States Constitutionor States Constitutions. Public emergency suchas economic depression or especially liberalconstruction o constitutional powers and ithas been declared that because o national

emergency, it is the policy o the courts o timeso national peril, so liberally to construed thespecial powers vested in the chie executive asto sustain an effectuate the purpose there o,and to that end also more liberally to construedthe constituted division and classification othe powers o the coordinate branches o thegovernment and in so ar as may not be clearlyinconsistent with the constitution. (16Am Jur2d., Sec. 98)

CONSTITUTIONS MUST BE CONSTRUEDTO REFERENCE THE COMMON LAW

As to the construction, with reerenceto Common Law, an important cannon oconstruction is that constitutions must be

construed to reerence to the Common Law.Te Common Law, so permitted destructiono the abatement o nuisances by summaryproceedings, and it was never supposed thata constitutional provision was intended tointerere with this established principle, andalthough there is no common law o the UnitedStates in a sense o a national customary law asdistinguished rom the common law o England,


20/48

20

adopted in the several states. In interpreting theFederal Constitution, recourse may still be hadto the aid o the Common Law o England. It hasbeen said that without reerence to the commonlaw, the language o the Federal Constitutioncould not be understood. (16Am Jur 2d., Sec. 114)

Various acts o circumstances extrinsic tothe constitution are ofen resorted to, by thecourts, to aid them and determining its meaning,as previously noted however, such extrinsic aidsmay not be resorted to where the provisionin the question is clear and unambiguous insuch a case the courts must apply the terms

o the constitution as written and they are notat liberty to search or meanings beyond theinstrument.(16Am Jur 2d., Sec. 117)

CONFLICTS. In all instances, where the courtexercises its power to invalidate legislation on

constitutional grounds, the conflict o the statute,with the constitution must be irreconcilable. Tusa statute is not to be declared unconstitutionalunless so inconsistent with the constitutionthat it cannot be enorced without a violation

thereo. A clear incompatibility between law andthe constitution must exist beore the judiciaryis justified holding the law unconstitutional.Tis principle is o course in line with the rulethat doubts as the constitutionality should beresolved in avor o the constitutionality and the

beneficiary. (16Am Jur 2d., Sec. 255)

BASIS OF ALL LAW. Nisi prius courts relyon statuteswhich is fiction o law, which seeksto control the behavior o the sovereign peoplewho are under common law and not statutes,

and who ordained and established the law.Tereore legislators cannot legislate the behav-ior o the people.


21/48

21

NO ONE IS BOUND

No provision o the Constitution is designed

to be without effect. Anything that is in conflictis null and void o law. Clearly, or a secondarylaw to come in conflict with the supreme Law wasillogical, or certainly, the supreme Law wouldprevail over all other laws, and certainly ouroreathers had intended that the supreme Lawwould be the basis o all law, and or any law tocome in conflict would be null and void o law;it would bare no power to enorce; it would bareno obligation to obey; it would purport to settleas i it had never existed; or unconstitutionality

would date rom the enactment o such a law,not rom the date so branded in an open courto law; no courts are bound to uphold it, and noCitizens are bound to obey it. It operates as anear nullity or a fiction o law.

Te general rule is that a unconstitutionalstatute, whether Federal or State, though havingthe orm and name o law, is in reality no law, butis wholly void and ineffective or any purpose,since unconstitutionality dates rom the time oits enactment and not merely rom the date o thedecision so branding it; an unconstitutional law,in legal contemplation, is as inoperative as i it hadnever been passed. Such a statute lives a questionthat it purports to settle, just as it would be hadthe statute not ever been enacted. No repeal o an

enactment is necessary, since an unconstitutionallaw is void. Te general principles ollows thatit imposes no duty, converse no rights, createsno office, bestows no power o authority onanyone, affords no protection and justifies no acts

perormed under it. A contract which rests on anunconstitutional statute creates no obligation tobe impaired by subsequent legislation.

No one is bound to obey an unconstitutional


22/48

22

law. No courts are bound to enorce it. Personsconvicted and fined under a statute subsequentlyheld unconstitutional may recover the finespaid. A void act cannot be legally inconsistentwith a valid one and an unconstitutional lawcannot operate to supersede an existing validlaw. Indeed, in so ar as a statute runs counter tothe undamental law o the land, it is superseded

thereby. Since an unconstitutional statutecannot repeal, or in any way effect an existingone, i a repealing statute is unconstitutional, thestatute which it attempts to repeal, remains inull orce and effect and where a statute in which

it attempts to repeal remains in ull orce andeffect and where a clause repealing a prior law isinserted in the act, which act is unconstitutionaland void, the provision o the repeal o theprior law will usually all with it and will not bepermitted to operate as repealing such prior law.

Te general principle stated above appliedto the constitution as well as the laws o theseveral states insoar as they are repugnant tothe constitution and laws o the United States.(16Am Jur 2d., Sec. 256)

CONGRESS CANNOT ALTER RIGHTS

On the other hand, it is clear that Congresscannot by authorization or ratification give theslightest effect to a state law or constitution

which is in conflict with the Constitution o theUnited States. (16Am Jur 2d., Sec. 258)

RIGHTS DO NOT COME IN DEGREES

Although it is maniested that an

unconstitutional provision in the statute is notcured because included in the same act withvalid provisions and that there is no degree o


23/48

23

constitutionality. (16Am Jur 2d., Sec. 260)

STATES CANNOT LICENSE RIGHTSA state may not impose a charge or the

enjoyment o a right granted by the FederalConstitution, and that a flat license tax hereinvolves restraints in advance the constitutionalliberties o Press and Religion and inevitablytends to suppress their existence. Tat theordinance is non-discriminatory and that itapplies also to peddlers o wares and merchandiseis immaterial. Te liberties granted by the firstamendment are in a preerred position. Since

the privilege in question is guaranteed by theFederal Constitution and exists independentlyo the states authority, the inquiry as to whetherthe state has given something or which itcannot ask a return, is irrelevant. No state may

convert any secured liberty into a privilege andissue a license and a ee or it.(Mudook v. Penn.319 US 105, 1943)

I the state does convert your right intoa privilege and issue a license and a ee or it,

you can ignore the license and a ee and engagethe right with impunity. (Shuttlesworth v.Birmingham AI. 373 US 262, 1962)

NO IMMUNITY. Te right o action createdby statute relating to deprivation under color o

law, o a right secured by the constitution andthe laws o the United States and comes claimswhich are based solely on statutory violationso Federal Law and applied to the claim thatclaimants had been deprived o their rights,in some capacity, to which they were entitled.

(Owen v. lndependence 100 Vol. Supreme CourtReports. 1398: [1982]; Main v. Tiboutot 100 Vol.Supreme Court Reports. 2502, 1982)

Judges are under the illusion that they haveabsolute immunity, but all the cases that arecited making such a claim are without authority[people] and will ail in the ederal and statecourts in a court o record. Only the people aresovereign; all servants are under statutes andthereore liable to USC 18 and 42. Where thereis no jurisdiction, there can be no discretion;

they are not above the law when they commita crime; they will go to jail and are subject tocivil suits. No man in this country is so highthat he is above the law. No officer o the lawmay set that law at defiance with impunity. All

the officers o the government, rom the highestto the lowest, are creatures o the law and arebound to obey it.... It is the only supreme powerin our system o government, and every manwho, by accepting office participates in itsunctions, is only the more strongly bound to

submit to that supremacy, and to observe thelimitations which it imposes on the exercise othe authority which it gives. (U.S. v. Lee, 106 U.S.196, 220 1 S. Ct. 240, 261, 27 L. Ed 171; 1882)

Tere is a general rule that a ministerial

officer who acts wrongully, although in goodaith, is nevertheless liable in a civil action andcannot claim the immunity o the sovereign.(Cooper v. OConner, 99 F.2d 133)

Any judge who does not comply with his

oath to the Constitution o the United Stateswars against that Constitution and engages inacts in violation o the supreme law o the land.Te judge is engaged in acts o treason. (Cooper

v. Aaron, 358 U.S. 1, 78 S. Ct. 1401; 1958)

A judge must be acting within his jurisdictionas to subject matter and person, to be entitled toimmunity rom civil action or his acts. (Davis v.Burris, 51 Ariz. 220, 75 P.2d 689; 1938)

Te courts are not bound by an officers inter-pretation o the law under which he presumes toact. (Hoffsomer v. Hayes, 92 Okla 32, 227 F. 417)

Where there is no jurisdiction, there canbe no discretion, or discretion is incident tojurisdiction. (Piper v. Pearson, 2 Gray 120, cited inBradley v. Fisher, 13 Wall. 335, 20 L.Ed. 646; 1872)

PREAMBLE Te operative word is establishand ordain. Te People existed in their ownindividual sovereignty beore the constitutionwas enabled. When the People establish a con-stitution, there is nothing in the word establishthat signifies that they have yielded any o theirsovereignty to the agency they have created. ointerpret otherwise would convert the republicinto a democracy (Republic vs. Democracy).

GOVERNMENT

We the people are a Republic, not a democracy,which is just the first step to an Oligarchy.

REPUBLICAN. One in which the powerso sovereignty are vested in the people andare exercised by the people, either directly, orthrough representatives chosen by the people,to whom those powers are specially delegated.(In re Duncan, 139 U.S. 449, 11 S.Ct. 573, 35 L.Ed. 219;Minor v. Happersett, 88 U.S. (21 Wall.) 162, 22 L.Ed.627. Blacks Law Dictionary, Fifh Edition, p. 626)

DEMOCRACY. Tat orm o government inwhich the sovereign power resides in and isexercised by the whole body o ree citizensdirectly or indirectly through a system orepresentation, as distinguished rom a

monarchy, aristocracy, or oligarchy. (Blacks LawDictionary, 5th Edition, p. 388; Bond v. U.S. SCOUSrecognizes personal sovereignty, June 16, 2011)

DUTY OF COURTS. It is the duty o thecourts to be watchul or the Constitutional

rights o the citizen and against any stealthyencroachments thereon. (Boyd v. United States,116 U.S. 616, 635)

It will be an evil day or American Libertyi the theory o a government outside supremelaw finds lodgment in our constitutionaljurisprudence. No higher duty rests upon thisCourt than to exert its ull authority to prevent allviolations o the principles o the Constitution.(Downs v. Bidwell, 182 U.S. 244; 1901)

We (judges) have no more right to declinethe exercise o jurisdiction which is given, thanto usurp that which is not given. Te one orthe other would be treason to the Constitution.(Cohen v. Virginia, (1821), 6 Wheat. 264 and U.S. v.Will, 449 U.S. 200)

It may be that it is the obnoxious thing inits mildest orm; but illegitimate and unconsti-tutional practices get their first ooting in thatway; namely, by silent approaches and slightdeviations rom legal modes o procedure. Tis

can only be obviated by adhering to the rule thatconstitutional provisions or the security o per-sons and property should be liberally construed.A close and literal construction deprives them ohal their efficacy, and leads to gradual deprecia-

tion o the right, as i it consisted more in soundthan in substance. It is the duty o the Courts tobe watchul or the Constitutional Rights o theCitizens, and against any stealthy encroachmentsthereon. Teir motto should be Obsta Principiis.(Boyd v. United, 116 U.S. 616 at 635; 1885)

COURTS OF RECORD

Courts o record and courts not o record,

the ormer being those whose acts and judicialproceedings are enrolled, or recorded, or aperpetual memory and testimony, and whichhave power to fine or imprison or contempt.Error lies to their judgments, and they generallypossess a seal. Courts not o record are those oinerior dignity, which have no power to fine orimprison, and in which the proceedings are not

enrolled or recorded. (3 Bl. Comm. 24; 3 Steph.Comm. 383; Te Tomas Fletcher, C.C.Ga., 24 F.481; Ex parte Tistleton, 52 Cal 225; Erwin v. U.S.,D.C.Ga., 37 F. 488, 2 L.R.A. 229; Heininger v. Davis,96 Ohio St. 205, 117 N.E. 229, 231)

AT LAW. [Bouviers Law] Tis phrase isused to point out that a thing is to be done

according to the course o the common law; itis distinguished rom a proceeding in equity.

Any court that ignores due process; all statu-

tory courts ignore due process and is not acommon law court; common law courts arecourts o record; in all courts o record thetribunal is the sovereign plaintiff(s) o the courtor the Jury. Te Justice is the administratorand reflects the wish o the sovereign, or jury,

because the people rulenot government ser-vants. Te ollowing Law o the Land provesthis point.

Tis Constitution, and the laws o theUnited States which shall be made in pursuance

thereo; and all treaties made, or which shall bemade, under the authority o the United States,shall be the supreme law of the land; and thejudges in every state shall be bound thereby,anything in the Constitution or laws o any

State to the contrary notwithstanding.Law o the land, due course o law, and

due process o law are synonymous. (People

137 A.L.R. 1058; Stoner v. Higginson, 316 Pa. 481,175 A. 527, 531.)

In a court o record the acts and judicialproceedings are enrolled, whereas in courts noto record, the proceedings are not enrolled. Te

privilege o having these enrolled memorialsconstitutes the great leading distinction betweencourts o record and courts not o record.

o be a court o record a court must have ourcharacteristics, and may have a fifh; they are:

1) A judicial tribunal having attributes andexercising unctions independently o theperson o the magistrate designated generallyto hold it. (Jones v. Jones, 188 Mo.App. 220, 175S.W. 227, 229; Ex parte Gladhill, 8 Metc. Mass., 171,

per Shaw, C.J. See, also, Ledwith v. Rosalsky, 244 N.Y.406, 155 N.E. 688, 689 Blacks Law Dictionary, 4thEd., 425, 426 Judges are magistrates N.Y. CRC.LAW 30 : NY Code - Section 30)

2) Proceeding according to the course o

common law.(Jones v. Jones, 188 Mo.App. 220, 175

S.W. 227, 229; Ex parte Gladhill, 8 Metc. Mass., 171, perShaw, C.J. See, also, Ledwith v. Rosalsky, 244 N.Y. 406, 155N.E. 688, 689][Blacks Law Dictionary, 4th Ed., 425, 426)

3) Its acts and judicial proceedings areenrolled, or recorded, or a perpetual memory

and testimony. (3 Bl. Comm. 24; 3 Steph. Comm.383; Te Tomas Fletcher, C.C.Ga., 24 F. 481; Exparte Tistleton, 52 Cal 225; Erwin v. U.S., D.C.Ga.,37 F. 488, 2 L.R.A. 229; Heininger v. Davis, 96 OhioSt. 205, 117 N.E. 229, 231)

4) Has power to fine or imprison orcontempt. (3 Bl. Comm. 24; 3 Steph. Comm. 383;Te Tomas Fletcher, C.C.Ga., 24 F. 481; Ex parteTistleton, 52 Cal 225; Erwin v. U.S., D.C.Ga., 37 F. 488,

5) Generally possesses a seal. (3 Bl. Comm. 24;3 Steph. Comm. 383; Te Tomas Fletcher, C.C.Ga.,24 F. 481; Ex parte Tistleton, 52 Cal 225; Erwin v.U.S., D.C.Ga., 37 F. 488, 2 L.R.A. 229; Heininger v.Davis, 96 Ohio St. 205, 117 N.E. 229, 231.][BlacksLaw Dictionary, 4th Ed., 425, 426)

Te people o this State, as the successorso its ormer sovereign, are entitled to all therights which ormerly belonged to the King byhis prerogative. (Lansing v. Smith, 4 Wend. 9 (N.Y.)(1829), 21 Am. Dec. 89 10C Const. Law Sec. 298; 18

C Em.Dom. Sec. 3, 228; 37 C Nav.Wat. Sec. 219; NulsSec. 167; 48 C Wharves Sec. 3, 7.)

A consequence o this prerogative is thelegal ubiquity o the king. His majesty in theeye o the law is always present in all his courts,though he cannot personally distribute justice.(Fortesc.c.8. 2Inst.186) His judges are themirror by which the kings image is reflected.(Blackstones Commentaries, 270.)

RIGHT TO PRACTICE LAW

Te term [liberty]...denotes not merelyreedom rom bodily restraint but also the righto the individual to contract, to engage in anyo the common occupations o lie, to acquireuseul knowledge, to marry, to establish a home

and bring up children, to worship God accordingto the dictates o this own conscience.... Teestablished doctrine is that this liberty may notbe interered with, under the guise o protectingpublic interest, by legislative action. (Meyer v.

Nebraska, 262 U.S. 390, 399, 400.)A State cannot exclude a person rom the

practice o law or rom any other occupation in

a manner or or reasons that contravene the DueProcess Clause o the Fourteenth Amendment.(Schware v. Board o Bar Examiners, 353 U.S. 232; 1957)

Tere can be no sanction or penalty imposedupon one because o his exercise o ConstitutionalRights. (Sherar v. Cullen, 481 F. 2d 946; 1973)

Te practice o law cannot be licensed by

any state/State. (Schware v. Board o Examiners,United State Reports 353 U.S. pages 238, 239.)

Te practice o law is an occupation o com-mon right. (Sims v. Aherns, 271 SW 720; 1925)

Te assertion o ederal rights, when plainlyand reasonably made, are not to be deeatedunder the name o local practice. (Davis v.Wechler, 263 U.S. 22, 24; Stromberb v. Caliornia,283 U.S. 359; NAACP v. Alabama, 375 U.S. 449)

...Te right to file a lawsuit pro se is one o the

most important rights under the constitutionand laws. (Elmore v. McCammon (1986) 640 F.Supp. 905)

RIGHT TO ASSIST. Litigants can be assistedby unlicensed laymen during judicial proceed-

ings. (Brotherhood o rainmen v. Virginia ex rel.Virginia State Bar, 377 U.S. 1; v. Wainwright, 372 U.S.335; Argersinger v. Hamlin, Sheriff 407 U.S. 425

A next riend is a person who representssomeone who is unable to tend to his or her

own interest. (Federal Rules o Civil Procedures,Rule 17, 28 USCA Next Friend)

Members o groups who are competent non-lawyers can assist other members o the groupachieve the goals o the group in court without

being charged with unauthorized practiceo law. (NAACP v. Button, 371 U.S. 415); UnitedMineworkers o America v. Gibbs, 383 U.S. 715; andJohnson v. Avery, 89 S. Ct. 747; 1969)

Tere, every man is independent o alllaws, except those prescribed by nature. He isnot bound by any institutions ormed by hisellowman without his consent. (Cruden v.Neale, 2 N.C. 338 (1796) 2 S.E.)

Under our system o government upon theindividuality and intelligence o the citizen, thestate does not claim to control him/her, exceptas his/her conduct to others, leaving him/herthe sole judge as to all that affects himsel/hersel. (Mugler v. Kansas 123 U.S. 623, 659-60.)

Te assertion o ederal rights, when plainlyand reasonably made, is not to be deeatedunder the name o local practice. (Davis v.Wechsler, 263 US 22, at 24)

A State may not impose a charge or theenjoyment o a right granted by the FederalConstitution. (Murdock v. Pennsylvania, 319 U.S.105, at 113.)

Te State cannot diminish rights o thepeople.(Hertado v. Caliornia, 110 U.S. 516)TeClaim and exercise o a Constitutional Rightcannot be converted into a crime. (Miller v. U.S.,230 F 2d 486. 489)

I the state converts a liberty into a privilegethe citizen can engage in the right with impu-nity (Shuttlesworth v Birmingham , 373 USs 262)

FIRST PRINCIPALS. Liberty is masteredin three powers: 1. Light (God); 2. Justice ,synonymous with virtue (Judicial process); 3.Rule o destiny (political process). Remove anyone and you lose Liberty. America has lost itsway and only a virtuous people can guide herback. And so to that end, the People, by themercy o God, have rediscovered the common[natural] law grand jury, and with His blessingsshall return America to her roots again.

VIRTUE. Maxims o law avow that justiceand virtue are synonymous. Beore a man can

implement justice he must first possess virtue,which the Bible declares flows rom the Lordalone (Luke 6:19), and defines virtue as what-soever things are true, honest, just, pure, lovely,and o good report (Phil 4:8). Te Lord urtherexpounds saying the wisdom that is rom above

is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy tobe entreated, ull o mercy and good ruits, with-out partiality, and without hypocrisy (James3:17), and that he that ollows afer it establishesrighteousness and honor (Prov 21:21).

Tomas Jefferson understood this when hesaid: God who gave us lie gave us liberty. Andcan the liberties o a nation be thought securewhen we have removed their only firm basis, aconviction in the minds o the people that Tese

liberties are o the gif o God? Tat they arenot to be violated but with His wrath? Indeed, Itremble or my country when I reflect that Godis just that His justice cannot sleep orever.

George Washington understood this when he

said: Te avorable smiles o Heaven can neverbe expected on a nation that disregards Teeternal rules o order and right which Heavenitsel has ordained.

Benjamin Franklin understood this when

he said: Only a virtuous people are capableo reedom. As nations become corrupt andvicious, they have more need o masters.

John Adams understood this when he said:Our Constitution was made only or a moral

and religious people. It is wholly inadequate tothe government o any other.

Patrick Henry understood this when he said:


33/48

33

It cannot be emphasized too strongly or tooofen that this great nation was ounded, not byreligionists, but by Christians; not on religions,but on the Gospel o Jesus Christ. For thisvery reason peoples o other aiths have beenafforded asylum, prosperity, and reedom oworship here.

James Madison understood this when he said:We have staked the whole uture o Americancivilization, not upon the power o government,ar rom it. We have staked the uture o all oour political institutions upon the capacity omankind or sel-government; upon the capac-

ity o each and all o us to govern ourselves, tocontrol ourselves, to sustain ourselves accord-ing to the en Commandments o God.

Noah Webster understood this when he said:No truth is more evident to my mind than that

the Christian religion must be the basis o anygovernment intended to secure the rights andprivileges o a ree people. (Father o AmericanScholarship and Education)

THE NAME GAMEPEOPLE OR CITIZEN14th Amendment Article I, section 1:All persons born or naturalized in the

United States, and subject to the jurisdictionthereo, are citizens o the United States and

o the State wherein they reside. No State shallmake or enorce any law which shall abridgethe privileges or immunities o citizens o theUnited States; nor shall any State deprive anyperson o lie, liberty, or property, without dueprocess o law; nor deny to any person within

its jurisdiction the equal protection o the laws.

NATION. In American constitutional law theword state is applied to the several members


34/48

34

o the American Union, while the word nationis applied to the whole body o the peopleembraced within the jurisdiction o the ederalgovernment. (Cooley, Const.Lim. 1; exas v. White,7 Wall. 720, 19 L. Ed. 227.)

PRIVILEGE is merely an accessory o the debtwhich it secures, and alls with the extinguish-ment o the debt. (Blacks Law 4th edition, 1891)

PERSONSare divided by Law into natural andartificial...corporations or bodies politic.Quasi municipal corporations: bodies politicand corporate, created or the sole purpose operorming one or more municipal unctions.(Blacks Law 4th edition, 1891)

WE THE PEOPLE o the United States, inorder to orm a more perect union, establishjustice, insure domestic tranquility, provideor the common deense, promote the generalwelare, and secure the blessings o liberty toourselves and our posterity, do ordain andestablish this Constitution or the United Stateso America.

PEOPLEare supreme, not the state. (Waring vs.the Mayor o Savanah); Te state cannot diminishrights o the people. (Hertado v. Caliornia); ...atthe Revolution, the sovereignty devolved onthe people; and they are truly the sovereignso the country, but they are sovereigns without

subjects...with none to govern but themselves.(Chisholm v. Georgia)

Te people o this State, as the successorso its ormer sovereign, are entitled to all therights which ormerly belonged to the King by

his prerogative. (Lansing v. Smith)ORDAIN. o enact a constitution or law.

KINGis the sovereign, ruler, holds the highestexecutive power, aka the People.

Sovereignty itsel is, o course, not subjectto law, or it is the author and source o law;but in our system, while sovereign powersare delegated to the agencies o government,sovereignty itsel remains with the people, bywhom and or whom all government exists andacts And the law is the definition and limitationo power. (Yick Wo v. Hopkins)

ONLY THE PEOPLE CAN SAVE AMERICA

I know no safe depositary of the ultimate powersof the society but the people themselves; and if we

think them not enlightened enough to exercise

their control with a wholesome discretion, the

remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform

their discretion by education. This is the true

corrective of abuses of constitutional power.Thomas Jefferson

Educate and inform the whole mass of the

people... They are the only sure reliance for the

preservation of our liberty.Thomas Jefferson

An enlightened citizenry is indispensable for the

proper functioning of a republic. Self-government

is not possible unless the citizens are educated

sufficiently to enable them to exercise oversight.It is therefore imperative that the nation see to it

that a suitable education be provided for all its

citizens. It should be noted, that when Jefferson

speaks of science, he is often referring to

knowledge or learning in general.Thomas Jefferson

If a nation expects to be ignorant and free in a

state of civilization, it expects what never was

and never will be.Thomas Jefferson

FOURTH BRANCH OF GOVERNMENT. Ina stunning 6 to 3 decision, Justice AntoninScalia, writing or the majority, confirmed that

the American grand jury is neither part o thejudicial, executive nor legislative branches ogovernment, but instead belongs to the people.It is in effect a ourth branch o government,governed and administered to directly byand on behal o the American people, and itsauthority emanates rom the Bill o Rights. (SeeUnited States -v- Williams)

In reality there is only one Grand Jury within astate with locations in each county. We can drawoff the jury pool rom any county i necessary.When the administrators o each county cometogether on an issue, they can use the seal o eachcounty on an arbitration or presentment docu-ment which can produce extraordinary results.

But in order to be successul we must firstseek the blessings rom the GOVERNOR OFHE UNIVERSE, and build our endeavorupon Him and His principles: (1) HONOR, (2)JUSICE, and (3) MERCY. Tis is the only sureoundation; any other will succumb to tyrants.

Our Constitution was made only for a moral andreligious people. It is wholly inadequate to the

government of any other.John Adams

Man will ultimately be governed by Godor by tyrants.Benjamin Franklin

CONSTITUTION OF A GRAND JURY. We thepeople, by the mercy and Grace o God hav-

ing blessed us with the unalienable right o thepeople as Grand Jurors, secured by the FifhAmendment o the Bill o Rights or the UnitedStates o America, in order to establish justice,insure domestic tranquility, secure the blessingso liberty to ourselves and our posterity by the

securing o Natural Law, do ordain and estab-lish this Grand Jury, principled upon Justice,Honor and Grace or a perpetual administra-tion o trust on behal o the people.

DUTY OF THE GRAND JURY. I anyones

unalienable rights have been violated, orremoved, without a legal sentence o their peers,rom their lands, home, liberties or lawul right,we [the twenty-five] shall straightway restorethem. And i a dispute shall arise concerning

this matter it shall be settled according to thejudgment o the twenty-five Grand Jurors, thesureties o the peace. (Magna Carta, June 15, A.D.1215, 52.)

JURIST OATH. I vow to the Governor o the

Universe, in my capacity as Jurist, to insure thatall public servants uphold the US Constitutionand Bill o Prohibitions (Rights); and to carryout all o my deliberating under Natural Law;principled under Justice, Honor, and Mercy;and to strictly adhere to the ollowing two legal

maxims: (1) Every right when withheld must havea remedy, and every injury its proper redress,and (2) In the absence o a victim there can beno crime corpus delecti; the State cannot be thevictim. It is the duty o all the People to share in

the governing o themselves and to secure theirgovernment by participating as a Jurist.

THINK ABOUT THIS! I we the people canreinstate Justice, and demand that elected

officials and bureaucrats obey the law or beindicted, we would have then succeeded inreinstating the Constitution!

Only the People can stand up and deend theConstitution because the Constitution cannotdeend itsel, and bureaucrats will never do it

PRAY AND STAND FOR JUSTICE

Hold on, my friends, to the Constitution and the

Republic for which it stands. Miracles do not cluster,

and what has happened once in 6,000 years, may

not happen again. Hold on to the Constitution, for

if the American Constitution should fail, there will

be anarchy throughout the world.Daniel Webster

Necessity is the plea for every infringement ofhuman freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is

the creed of slaves.William Pitt, Nov. 18, 1783

I would rather be exposed to the inconvenience

attending too much Liberty than those attendingtoo small degree of it.

GRAND JURY MISSION STATEMENT

Our mission is to restore the people tosovereignty through knowledge, and onlythen will they be armed with the virtue to takepolitical and judicial power. Te people have itin their power to disarm and deeat the enemy

o Libertyboth oreign and domestici theyonly understood the principles o reedom andstand upon them.


39/48

39

o take political power is to control ourelected representatives, by bringing them intoobedience through ear o the people; this isaccomplished by understanding the office oand becoming elected committeemen, and thenexecute the powers. Its that simple!

o take judicial power is to control our courtsby understanding jurisdiction, and bringinginto subjection all government officers andofficials using common law courts by openingcourts o record and executing peopleauthority. Its that simple!

But, to successully apply political and judicialpower you must have a sense o justice andmercy, which is synonymous with virtue. Andto get virtue you need to have a relationshipwith your Creator. I everyone exercised theseprinciples, America could shake off the chains

o tyranny, reinstate our republic, and bringdown the NWO literally overnight. Tis is theonly way to save the nation; without power youare powerless! Join our endeavor and save ourRepublic, one people at a time!

We are Non-Partisan. A partisan person isone who is blindly or unreasonably devotedto party positions. Tereore a partisancannot possibly serve the constitution. GeorgeWashington warned us against political parties

when he said, they only succeed in pitting onegroup against another.

Te cause o the grassroots movement is theawakening to our constitutional crisis, or tobe engaged in partisan politics would urther

serve the demise o our constitutional republic.Te genius o the progressive movement is theirexploitation o partisan politics, which theycreated to subvert our constitution. Grassroots

NO GOD, NO LIBERTY.

KNOW GOD, KNOW LIBERTY.

If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shallbe free indeed.John 8:36

If a nation expects to be ignorant and free...it

expects what never was and never will be.

Thomas Jefferson

The favorable smiles of Heaven can never be

expected on a nation that disregards The eternal

rules of order and right which Heaven itself has

ordained.

George Washington

God who gave us life gave us liberty. And can the

liberties of a nation be thought secure when we

have removed their only firm basis, a conviction

in the minds of the people that These libertiesare of the gift of God? That they are not to be

violated but with His wrath? Indeed, I tremble for

my country when I reflect that God is just that His

justice cannot sleep forever.Thomas Jefferson

The worship of God is a duty.Benjamin Franklin

The fate of unborn millions will now depend,

under God, on the courage of this army, Our

cruel and unrelenting enemy leaves us only the

choice of brave resistance, or the most abject

submission, We have, therefore to resolve to

conquer or die.George Washington

I am sure that never was a people, who

had more reason to acknowledge a Divine

interposition in their affairs, than those of the


42/48

42

United States; and I should be pained to believe

that they have forgotten that agency, which was

so often manifested during our Revolution, or

That they failed to consider the omnipotence of

that God who is alone able to protect them.George Washington

Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom.

As nations become corrupt and vicious, theyhave more need of masters.

Benjamin Franklin

Our Constitution was made only for a moral and

religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the

government of any other.John Adams

Statesmen, my dear Sir, may plan and speculate

for liberty, but It is religion and morality alone,

which can establish the principles upon which

freedom can securely stand. The only foundation

of a free constitution is pure virtue; and if this

cannot be inspired into our people in a greater

measure than they have it now, they may change

their rulers and the forms of government, but

they will not obtain a lasting liberty. They willonly exchange tyrants and tyrannies.

John Adams

The safety and prosperity of nations ultimately

and Essentially depend on the protection and

blessing of Almighty God; and the national

acknowledgment of this truth is not only an

indispensable duty, which the people owe to him,

but a duty whose natural influence is favorable to

the Promotion of that morality and piety, without

which social happiness cannot exist, nor theblessings of a free government be enjoyed.

John Adams

Observe good faith and justice towards all

Nations. Cultivate peace and harmony with all.

Religion and Morality enjoin this conduct; and can

it be that good policy does not equally enjoin it?

Can it be that Providence has not connected the

permanent felicity of a Nation with its virtue?George Washington

Nothing can contribute to true happiness that isinconsistent with duty; nor can a course of action

conformable to it, be finally without an ample

reward. For, God governs; and he is good.Benjamin Franklin

Happiness, whether in despotism or democracy,whether in slavery or liberty, can never be found

without virtue.John Adams

It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too

often that this great nation was founded, not

by religionists, but by Gods children; not on

religions, but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For

this very reason peoples of other faiths have been

afforded asylum, prosperity, and freedom of

worship here.Patrick Henry

It is the duty of every man to render to the Creator

such homageBefore any man can be considered

as a member of Civil Society, he must be considered

as a subject of the Governor of the UniverseJames Madison

We have staked the whole future of American

civilization, not upon the power of government,

far from it. We have staked the future of all ofour political institutions upon the capacity of

mankind for self-government; upon the capacity

of each and all of us to govern ourselves,


44/48

44

to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves

according to the Ten Commandments of God.James Madison

Religion, or the duty we owe to our Creator, and

manner of discharging it, can be directed only by

reason and conviction, not by force or violence.James Madison

Let it simply be asked where is the security for

prosperity, for reputation, for life, if the sense of

Religious obligation desert the oaths, which are

The instruments of investigation in the Courts of

Justice?

George Washington

And let us with caution indulge the supposition,

that morality can be maintained without religion.George Washington

Whatever may be conceded to the influence ofrefined education on minds of peculiar structure,

reason and experience both Forbid us to expect

that national morality can prevail in exclusion of

religious principle.

George Washington

Tis substantially true, that Virtue or morality is a

necessary spring of popular government. George Washington

Though, in reviewing the incidents of myAdministration, I am unconscious of intentional

error, I am nevertheless too sensible of my

defects not to think it probable that I may have

committed many errors. Whatever they may

be I fervently beseech the Almighty to avert or

mitigate the evils to which they may tend.George Washington

Congress and President George Washingtonin 1789 passed the United States AnnotatedCode, Article III, which states: Religion,morality, and knowledge, being necessary togood government and the happiness o man-kind, schools and the means o education shallorever be encouraged.

In my view, the Christian religion is the most

important and one of the first things in which

all children, under a free government ought to

be instructed. No truth is more evident to my

mind than that the Christian religion must be the

basis of any government intended to secure the

rights and privileges of a free people. Noah Webster

The brief exposition of the constitution of the

United States, will unfold to young persons the

principles of republican government; and it is the

sincere desire of the writer that our citizens should

early understand that The genuine source of cor-

rect republican principles is the Bible, particularly

the New Testament or the Christian religion.Noah Webster

The religion which has introduced civil liberty

is the religion of Christ and His apostles, which

enjoins humility, piety, and benevolence; which

acknowledges in every person a brother, or a

sister, and a citizen with equal rights. This is

genuine Christianity, and to this we owe our freeConstitutions of Government.

Noah Webster

The moral principles and precepts contained in

the Scriptures ought to form the basis of all of ourcivil constitutions and laws All the miseries

and evils which men suffer from vice, crime,

ambition, injustice, oppression, slavery and war,

proceed from their despising or neglecting the

precepts contained in the Bible.Noah Webster

If the citizens neglect their duty and place

unprincipled men in office, the government will

soon be corrupted; laws will be made not for the

public good so much as for the selfish or local

purposes. Noah Webster

Every master of slaves is born a petty tyrant.

They bring the judgment of heaven upon a

country. As nations cannot be rewarded or

punished in the next world, they must be in this.By an inevitable chain of causes and effects,

Providence punishes national sins, by national

calamities.George Mason

Father of our Bill of Rights, 1787

Common Law is our Heritage! Liberty is ourinheritance! We the people have been lulledasleep; we have been robbed and persuadedto sell our birthright. Whoso looketh into the

perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, hebeing not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work,this man shall be blessed in his deed.(James 1:25)

My people are destroyed for lack ofknowledge. (Hosea 4:6)

Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not;neither decline from the words of my mouth.Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee:love her, and she shall keep thee. Wisdom is the

principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all

thy getting get understanding. Exalt her, and sheshall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour,when thou dost embrace her. (Prov 4:5-8)
