As printed in the newspaper column: A Voice In The Mountains, By Alan D. Turner
THE UNITING OF THE STATES OF AMERICA (PART TWO)
In part one of this two part article; we discussed how that the political party that is currently in power in Washington, DC must be stopped from radically changing our laws in such a way that it will ensure their continual seat of power; if not indefinitely, for at least decades to come.
They must not be permitted to make permanent at the Federal/National level all the unconstitutional voting changes that were made at the State level in the last Presidential and Congressional Election. For if they are successful in doing so – it will permit them to continue to manipulate the vote count in such a way that pretty much guarantees their candidates to be the majority winners; giving them an ongoing majority rule.
With the simple majority of this party already passing the bill in the House to make this happen; the only thing holding them back would be if they could not mustard all 50 of their Senators to vote likewise. For even if they could not get at least one of the Senators from the opposition party to agree with them; with both parties voting straight down party lines; it will result in making it a 50-50 vote; with the tiebreaker vote being cast by the current Vice-President; which would allow the one now sitting in the White House to sign it into Federal law.
It is my hope (and prayer) that since they have not passed the bill in the Senate; it means there is at least one (if not more) in their party who believes in upholding the U. S. Constitution as written (and understood) by our Founding Fathers; who made it clear that the Presidential Election Laws and all other State and local Election Laws are to be made and overseen solely by the individual State Legislators, and not the Federal Legislators.
It is also my hope that they will stay firm and not give into the pressure that is no doubt being placed upon them by their leaders; with also a lesser hope that they may persuade others in their own party to join them in defending the integrity of our voting laws, and ensuring that our voting rights remain not only free, but Constitutionally legal; especially when it comes to protecting our votes from manipulation.
It is when times arise in this Nation when the integrity of our laws, both Federal and State (and even all lower laws) are being challenged; is when men and women of true integrity must make their stand to defend our laws as understood by their original founders/legislators, and not yield their authority to do so to some radical faction within not only the oppositional party, but even within their own.
It is a time when those at the State level must not rely solely on those at the Federal level to do the right thing. As stated in part one: It was never our founding fathers desire for the States to be subject to the Federal/National Government; it was actually the opposite.
Those at the Federal level are to be representatives of their States, not dictators of. Our Federal Laws are to reinforce our State Laws; they were never to take precedence over, making them null in void.
Lawmakers at the Federal level were never to make laws that infringed upon the rights of the States to govern themselves; usurping any authority over the States. Once again, Washington, DC is supposed to be an extension of the States, and not vice versa.
It is each State’s responsibility to work independently and as a whole with all of the other States, to ensure that we will never be governed by a Tyrannical Form of Government, but remain independently free, while at the same time being dependent upon one another. This was true in our beginning; resulting in our Revolutionary War; which won us our independence from England, and created our One Sovereign Nation, made up of individual sovereign States, and it is just as true today; that each State must continually resist any form of tyrannical governing, including those at our Federal level.
Congress must not be the only voice that speaks for America, but only an extension of the States’ voices; the voices of many becoming the voice of one; where each State has a say in how we govern ourselves individually and as a whole.
“One Nation indivisible, with liberty and justice for all”: These words come from “Our Pledge of Allegiance”; which is our promise to one another that no one State will ever rule over another, but it also a promise from each State, that we will unite as a whole against any one sole power attempting to dictatorially rule over us all, and this includes no one Federal Government attempts to do so.
It was never the intent of our Founding Fathers for the individual States to replace one type of tyrannical form of Government (The Monarchy of Kings or Queens) for another (the sole control by those at The Federal/National level). To be subservient to any and all demands/requirements set forth by those in Washington, DC.; without any ability to challenge any Federal Laws (including Executive Orders from The Presidency) that infringe on the States rights, especially when it comes to our freedoms and rights guaranteed in our U.S. Constitution to not only each and every individual State, but for each and every individual Citizen that abides within those States.
This article is not a cry for another Revolutionary War, or any other war; but – it is a cry for each and every State that believes that our freedoms and rights of independence to self-govern ourselves are worth fighting for; to unite together, and stand up for our States’ individual rights to self govern ourselves; especially when our Federal Government has indeed overreached their Constitutional Authority.
At the time of the writing of this article, I’ve heard that there are at least 26 States that are now challenging what they (and myself) believe is an overreach of power by the current President and his party; including their attempt to pass their Unconstitutional Voting Law. It is also my understanding that all of these States are States were those in the majority, are those of the oppositional party.
Once again as at the Federal level, even so more at the State level – it is my hope (and prayer) that there will be other States to join those who are taking their stance against any and all unconstitutional efforts of those in Washington, DC; including those States were the majority in power are those of the current President’s party; who believe in upholding the U. S. Constitution, more than offering their unwavering support to their political party. Who believe that it their State’s right (and Constitutional responsibility) to uphold our Constitution; which includes determining the Presidential Election Laws and all other State and local Election Laws, and not the Federal Legislators.
As I close, I do so as I did in part one, stating the absolute necessity: We are at a time in history, when we need a uniting of the States of America (of both political parties) to stand up against the ongoing attempt by those in Washington, DC to rule over all us. Starting within the individual State boarders, we need the State Legislators, Governors, and Attorney Generals to unite and challenge any and all unconstitutional actions at the Federal level. And even greater, we need all those individual States to unite with one another and stand up and fight for America as a whole!
I thank you for reading this ongoing column, as I will continue to share THIS ONE MAN’S OPINION regarding subjects that matter to my God, to all of us, all our families, and to everyone else.
