Oh man, you guys are still buying into the illusions..... The constitution??? You mean politician toilet paper? The constitution is nothing but a road block in the path of the tyrants. Just like the hemp it was drafted on. Soon they will have found all the loopholes they need to completely ignore it.
This government was bought, and paid for by foreign bankers long ago. They dont give 2 s***s about America, or the American people. Let alone their voice, or their votes. Your only kidding yourself if you think it makes a difference which party is in power, with the exception of some fringe third parties that have no chance/voice.
It all boils down to the money. Our currency is dictated to us by a private bank mos tly owned not by the treasury....but by foreign bankers. Election, and candidates are bought an sold. Simple as that. Until we abolish the fed reserve, and central banking the quo will remain. As long is every one is fat happy, and complacent, the quo will never even be challenged. No one seems to care about principles, and liberty in this country. We easily sacrifice our liberties for the false sense of security.
"Let me control a peoples currency and I care not who makes their laws."
- Meyer Nathaniel Rothschild in a speech to a gathering of world bankers February 12, 1912, a requote of his ancestor Mayer Amschel.
This video is a cute cartoon, and therefore some what makes light of the issue, but it really explains the history nicely.

"I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is now controlled by its system of credit… We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated Governments in the world - no longer a Government of free opinion, no longer a Government by conviction and vote of the majority, but a Government by the opinion and duress of small groups of dominant men."
- Woodrow Wilson, 1919
"This [Federal Reserve Act] establishes the most gigantic trust on earth. When the President Wilson signs this bill, the invisible government of the monetary power will be legalized....the worst legislative crime of the ages is perpetrated by this banking and currency bill. From now on, depressions will be scientifically created."
- Charles A. Lindbergh, Sr., 1913
"The financial system has been turned over to the Federal Reserve Board. That Board administers the finance system by authority of a purely profiteering group. The system is Private, conducted for the sole purpose of obtaining the greatest possible profits from the use of other people's money"
- Charles A. Lindbergh, Sr., 1923
"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered...I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies... The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs." Jefferson
"The eyes of our citizens are not sufficiently open to the true cause of our distress. They ascribe them to everything but their true cause, the banking system"
– Thomas Jefferson
"To preserve our independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our election between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude." Jefferson
"History records that the money changers have used every form of abuse, intrigue, deceit, and violent means possible to maintain their control over governments by controlling money and it's issuance"
- President James Madison (1809-1817)
"The Congress shall have power to… coin money [and] regulate the value thereof."
- Section 8, U.S. Constitution, 1783
"All the perplexities, confusion and distress in America arise not from defects in our Constitution; not from want of honour or virtue, so much as from downright ignorance of the nature of coin, credit and circulation."
- President John Adams, 2nd U.S. President
"The few who understand the system will either be so interested in its profits or so dependent on its favours that there will be no opposition from that class, while on the other hand, the great body of the people mentally incapable of comprehending the tremendous advantage that capital derives from the system will bear its burdens without complaint and perhaps without even suspecting t
hat the system is inimical to their interests."
- John Sherman letter sent to New York bankers, Morton, and Gould, in support of the then proposed National Banking Act, 1863
“The real truth of the matter is that a financial element in the large centers has owned the government since the days of Andrew Jackson.”
- President FD Roosevelt (1933-1945)
“The Federal Reserve is one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever seen. There is not a man within the sound of my voice who does not know that this Nation is run by the international bankers.”
? Congressman Louis T. McFadden, Chairman of the House Banking and Currency Committee, June 20, 1932
"Some people think the Federal Reserve Banks are United States Government Institution. They are private credit monopolies which prey upon the people of the United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers."
- Congressman Louis T. McFadden, Chairman of the House Banking and Currency Committee, June 20, 1932
"Lenin was certainly right. There is no subtler, no surer means of overturning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency... By a continuing process of inflation, government can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens. By this method they not only confiscate, but they confiscate arbitrarily; and while the process impoverishes many, it actually enriches some... The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose.”
- John Maynard Keynes
“The people must be helped to think naturally about money. They must be told what it is, and what makes it money, and what are the possible tricks of the present which put nations and peoples under the control of the few. If the American people knew the corruption in our money system there would revolution before morning!”
? Henry Ford, Sr (1863-1947)
“We have gold because we cannot trust Governments.”
- President Herbert Hoover (1929-1933)
"When you or I write a check there must be sufficient funds in out account to cover the check, but when the Federal Reserve writes a check there is no bank deposit on which that check is drawn. When the Federal Reserve writes a check, it is creating money."
- Boston Federal Reserve Bank
"Every Congressman, every Senator knows precisely what causes inflation...but can't support the drastic reforms to stop it because it could cost him his job.“
- Robert A. Heinlein, Expanded Universe, 1980
