The Republic for the United States of America (R.U.S.A.)

The Republic for the United States of America

From http://www.republicoftheunitedstates.org/

R.U.S.A.- A provisional (interim) government for the American People running parallel to the UNITED STATES Corporation.

The United States exists today in two forms:

One is the original de jure United States of America Republic that was controlled by the American People until about 1871. The government had very little authority since the power was in the hands of the People. The original Constitution was never removed; it has simply been dormant since about 1871. It is still intact to this day.  The de jure representative American Republic was re-inhabited in an interim capacity in 2010 and is reaching out to the American People to ask them if they want their Republic back.

The other form is the de facto. During the years around 1871 the original representative American Republic was usurped by banking interests and others to create a separate and different government, a corporation (the UNITED STATES Corporation,) that poses and acts as our current government. The UNITED STATES Corporation operates under Corporate/Commercial Law rather than the common law (Constitution)/Private Law. The rewritten UNITED STATES corporate Constitution subverted the original Constitution for the United States of America. In other words, the Constitution was placed UNDER the Corporation as opposed to OVER the government. This explains why our Congressmen and Senators no longer answer to the People, the President can write unlawful Executive Orders and the judiciary can make unconstitutional rulings. They are following corporate laws that completely strip Americans of their God given unalienable rights.

The “cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men” that George Washington warned the American People about ultimately were successful in subverting our representative American Republic. One of the ways they did this was using banking as a weapon against the American People. Foreign banking interests influenced many in our nation and in our government to take control of our monetary system. During and following the 1870’s, these banking interests realized that the Constitutional Republic could not be lawfully destroyed, so they set it aside and moved forward with a new corporate democratic system of government. However, the American People were never informed that their governance had changed from a representative republic to a corporate democracy (oligarchy) controlled by the rich and powerful. The American People have the lawful right and authority to change our system of government but a de jure Congress never asked us to decide or approve this unlawful change in governance. They unlawfully usurped the God given unalienable rights of the American People without our consent. This is in direct violation of our lawform and makes any actions taken under color of law by the UNITED STATES municipal Corporation null and void. They used a de facto legal system and an unlawful practice of implied consent, without full disclosure, to create an unlawful government to force their rule over the American People. The end result was that the Representative American Republic was abandoned.

Both Houses of the interim Congress continue to meet regularly and engage in separate and joint Congressional committees and subcommittees, actively researching and defining procedures, acts, resolutions, bills and findings in an effort to move the interim government forward on behalf of the American People. The Senate continues its work to vet and approve nominations by the President for various Offices. The interim Supreme Court and interim district Courts are conducting training and preparing to hear cases. Members of the President’s Cabinet are likewise conducting their own research to assist in the transition process. Extensive research and work has been put into banking and finance. The treasury and banking system is under development and being reviewed. Start up budgets were proposed and passed by Congress to support the free States and general government during the period of interim governance. In short, in spite of determined opposition, the Republic is moving forward rapidly.

Failure to provide a platform for peaceful transition could plunge America into anarchy and have a potentially devastating impact on the economies of the world.

III Percent

 

The III Percent Mission Statement: Rightful Liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others.

~ Thomas Jefferson

Historians claim that perhaps 3 percent of Colonists took up arms and fought the British. The arms of the Militiaman are the birthright of every American, for use as needed to defend our unalienable Rights. Those who would be our Masters, those who insist upon infringing upon our Liberty are enemies of the republic and of humanity.

 

The Original III Percenters flag

Duty, Discernment, Principle, Discipline, Honor-

Duty is defined as "a moral or legal obligation or the force of moral obligation."

We are bound by our fidelity to liberty and the Founders Republic, by our oaths to protect and defend those concepts and the American people from any and all tyranny and conspiracy against their God-given, natural and inalienable rights. This is not negotiable. It is not honored in the breach. It is an intimate, almost holy, thing. It is not honored in the breach, nor is it subject to negotiation.

Discernment is "the ability to see and understand people, things, or situations clearly and intelligently."

Without discernment, it is all too easy to fall into stupidity and error, every bit of which is exploited by the enemies of liberty to deceive, discredit and defeat us in our duty.

Honor consists of "a keen sense of ethical conduct and integrity."

The Founders spoke of their "sacred honor." It is honor that binds us to our duty, to our principles, to the discipline required for discernment: to think through things before we act.

Principle is "a comprehensive and fundamental law, doctrine, or assumption; a rule or code of conduct; habitual devotion to right principles."

Our principles trace back to the Founding generation and to the distant past that informed their struggle for true liberty, for a republic of limits on government and backstopped by the rule of law, whether the threat was dictator, demagogue or Collectivist tyrant.

Finally, Discipline is " training that corrects, molds, or perfects the mental faculties or moral character; self-control; a rule or system of rules governing conduct or activity.

Without discipline, duty, discernment, honor and principle are constantly threatened with discredit and defeatism. Discipline is the glue that binds them, and us, all together. Remove any one of these essentials and the Three Percenter who embraces the error MUST fail. Indeed, without any one of them, he or she is no Three Percenter at all. Hold tight to them all, and we can fight and win against any tyranny or combination of tyrannies.

Federal Reform

Anti-Federalist Goals

for Federal Reform

• Bring our Troops Home- We are at war with several countries in the Middle East that we should not be in, U.S. Special Operations forces are operating in over 150 foreign countries, that’s 75% of the world's nations; our defense budget is putting our country in severe debt that we cannot repay

• Stop Printing Money- The Federal Reserve’s Q.E. program is degrading our currency and furthering our debt; The Federal Reserve is a privately owned bank and not a part of our government, their role in America’s economic policy needs reform

• Foreign Trade Policy Reform- Businesses in America should have workers in America, jobs going overseas should be taxed, on the business, in a way that would equal a workers pay here on American soil

• Investigate High-Level Corruption- The Federal government has been saturated with corruption, a judicial committee should be formed by the Supreme Court to investigate war crimes, insider trading, extortion, and other illegal activities

• Invest In America- Our infrastructure is crumbling because we are investing in other countries (for political leverage) instead of focusing on our own problems

• Return to a Constitutional Republic- Our country has turned into an Oligarchy, not intended by our Founding Fathers, we need to re-institute the principles our country was founded on 

Anti-Federalist Presidents

Thomas Jefferson and Anti-Federalism

Thomas Jefferson, one of the most successful U.S. Presidents and “Father of the Constitution” believed in extremely limited federal government. Jefferson subscribed to the political ideals expounded by Locke, Bacon, and Newton. In A Summary View of the Rights of British America, he argued people have the right to govern themselves. He thought the independent and rural life were ideals of republican virtues. He distrusted cities and financiers, favored decentralized government power, and believed that tyranny was due to corrupt political establishments and monarchies. Jefferson was steeped in the tradition of the oppressed majority set against a repeatedly unresponsive government. He justified small outbreaks of rebellion as necessary to get monarchial regimes to amend oppressive measures compromising popular liberties.

Jefferson founded the Republican(Anti-Federalist) Party in opposition to the Federalist Party of Alexander Hamilton. The Republicans under Jefferson were strongly influenced by the 18th-century British Whig Party, who believed in limited government. The Jeffersonians were deeply committed to Republicanism in the United States, which at the time meant opposition to aristocracy and corruption, insistence on virtue, and equal rights for all citizens, with a priority for the ordinary folk. He used agrarian resistance to banks and speculators as the first defining principle of an opposition party, recruiting candidates for Congress on the issue as early as 1792. In 1801 the Anti-Federalist/Republican Party started gaining steam and Jefferson was elected 3^rd President of The United States. As president, Jefferson feared the Federalist system enacted by Washington and Adams. He tried to restore a balance between the state and federal governments more nearly reflecting the Articles of Confederation, seeking to reinforce state prerogatives where his party was in a majority.

Jefferson distrusted government banks and opposed public borrowing, which he thought created long-term debt, bred monopolies, and invited dangerous speculation as opposed to productive labor. In one letter to Madison, he argued each generation should curtail all debt within 19 years, and not impose a long-term debt on subsequent generations. Jefferson and Madison thought a national bank would ignore the needs of individuals and farmers, and would violate the Tenth Amendment by assuming powers not granted to the federal government by the states. As president, Jefferson was unfortunately persuaded by Secretary of Treasury Albert Gallatin to leave the bank intact, but sought to restrain its influence.

As Jefferson saw his party triumph in the two terms of his presidency and launch into a third term under James Madison, his view of the U.S. as a continental republic and an "empire of liberty" grew more upbeat. On departing the presidency in 1809, he described America as "trusted with the destinies of this solitary republic of the world, the only monument of human rights, and the sole depository of the sacred fire of freedom and self-government".

Common Sense

Common Sense

Thomas Paine

"Society in every state is a blessing, but Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one: for when we suffer, or are exposed to the same miseries BY A GOVERNMENT, which we might expect in a country WITHOUT GOVERNMENT, our calamity is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which we suffer. Government, like dress, is the badge of lost innocence; the palaces of kings are built upon the ruins of the bowers of paradise. For were the impulses of conscience clear, uniform and irresistibly obeyed, man would need no other lawgiver; but that not being the case, he finds it necessary to surrender up a part of his property to furnish means for the protection of the rest; and this he is induced to do by the same prudence which in every other case advises him, out of two evils to choose the least. Wherefore, security being the true design and end of government, it unanswerably follows that whatever form thereof appears most likely to ensure it to us, with the least expense and greatest benefit, is preferable to all others."

"The Sun never shined on a cause of greater worth. 'Tis not the affair of a City, a County, a Province, or a Kingdom; but of a Continent — of at least one-eighth part of the habitable Globe. 'Tis not the concern of a day, a year, or an age; posterity are virtually involved in the contest, and will be more or less affected even to the end of time, by the proceedings now. Now is the seed-time of Continental union, faith and honor. The least fracture now will be like a name engraved with the point of a pin on the tender rind of a young oak; the wound would enlarge with the tree, and posterity read in it’s full grown characters."

"It is the good fortune of many to live distant from the scene of present sorrow; the evil is not sufficiently brought to their doors to make them feel the precariousness with which all American property is possessed. But let our imaginations transport us a few moments to Boston; that seat of wretchedness will teach us wisdom, and instruct us for ever to renounce a power in whom we can have no trust. The inhabitants of that unfortunate city who but a few months ago were in ease and affluence, have now no other alternative than to stay and starve, or turn out to beg. Endangered by the fire of their friends if they continue within the city and plundered by the soldiery if they leave it, in their present situation they are prisoners without the hope of redemption, and in a general attack for their relief they would be exposed to the fury of both armies."

"Men of passive tempers look somewhat lightly over the offenses of Great Britain, and, still hoping for the best, are apt to call out, "Come, come, we shall be friends again for all this." But examine the passions and feelings of mankind: bring the doctrine of reconciliation to the touchstone of nature, and then tell me whether you can hereafter love, honour, and faithfully serve the power that hath carried fire and sword into your land? If you cannot do all these, then are you only deceiving yourselves, and by your delay bringing ruin upon posterity. Your future connection with Britain, whom you can neither love nor honour, will be forced and unnatural, and being formed only on the plan of present convenience, will in a little time fall into a relapse more wretched than the first. But if you say, you can still pass the violations over, then I ask, hath your house been burnt? Hath your property been destroyed before your face? Are your wife and children destitute of a bed to lie on, or bread to live on? Have you lost a parent or a child by their hands, and yourself the ruined and wretched survivor? If you have not, then are you not a judge of those who have. But if you have, and can still shake hands with the murderers, then are you unworthy the name of husband, father, friend or lover, and whatever may be your rank or title in life, you have the heart of a coward, and the spirit of a sycophant."

"This is not inflaming or exaggerating matters, but trying them by those feelings and affections which nature justifies, and without which, we should be incapable of discharging the social duties of life, or enjoying the felicities of it. I mean not to exhibit horror for the purpose of provoking revenge, but to awaken us from fatal and unmanly slumbers, that we may pursue determinately some fixed object."

 _______________________________________________________________

It's amazing, the similarities between the state of affairs in 1776 and our current affairs with the Federal government. It is also quite unfortunate that in such a short time we have lost so many liberties we once fought so hard to get. Much of Thomas Paine's essay is focused on the discussion of separating from Britain or reconciling with Her, which leads me to question how we will deal with our government after our revolution. Will we arrest them all and replace them with new puppets? Will we find a truce and settle for some justice now only to endure more tyranny later? Will we separate from them and perhaps other states with them? Will we re-write the Constitution or amend it? These are question for a much later date but worth pondering. Some will be answered naturally as we move forward and certain ideals may be ruled out. But in the end how will we manage? Will we overthrown a violent and malevolent government just to replace them with different faces? Legislature must be written and ready to use at that time. Documents and positions must be made ready. Otherwise a vacuum will be created and power hungry politicians will jump at the occasion. We must be ready.

On Anti-Federalism

Suspicion of centralized authority has deep roots in American history. This distrust has generally been counterbalanced by a remarkable faith in the abilities of state and local governments. One of the great ironies of American history is that the Constitution was framed by the Federalists, the proponents of a stronger central government. Their opponents, the Anti-Federalists, were defeated in one of the greatest political struggles in American history. Ratification of the Constitution did not, however, eliminate Anti-Federalist ideas: localism continues to be a powerful force in American life. 

If the structure of American government was crafted by Federalists, the spirit of American politics has more often been inspired by the Anti-Federalists. Indeed, the struggle between the Federalist Founders and the dissenting voices of the Anti-Federalists, the Other Founders of the American constitutional tradition, continues to define the nature of political life.

The nature of federalism created a problematic that all opponents of the Constitution were forced to grapple with: how to preserve the autonomy of the states and localities within a federal system that would command citizen allegiance. The difficulty was how to achieve this goal without endowing a strong central government with considerable coercive authority.

The Virginia and Kentucky resolutions focused attention on the constitutional means available to citizens and states to challenge unlawful exercises of federal power. (Nullification)

Elbridge Gerry published his objections to the Constitution on Nov. 3, 1787, in the Massachusetts Centinel, one of the most re-printed Anti-Federalist essays ever. The objections/criticisms were:

1 The omission of a bill of rights

2 The consolidationist/nationalist character of the new government

3 The charge of aristocracy

4 Concerns about taxation

5 Fears about the creation of a standing army

The Antifederalists were critics of the Constitution drafted by the Framers and submitted to the states for ratification in 1787. Some Antifederalists were unconditionally opposed to adopting the Constitution, while others demanded amendments or pressed for a second convention to correct the "errors" of the first. They were not (as the name "Antifederalist" suggests) opposed to a federal system of government – indeed, they claimed to be the "true Federalists" – but they believed the proposed Constitution gave too much power to the national authority and left too little to the states. Ultimately, they feared a "consolidated" government that would "swallow up" the states and subvert the liberties of the people.

Wisdom of John Adams

John Adams, 2^nd President of the United States, Vice President to George Washington, Signer of the Declaration of Independence, Main Author of the Constitution of Massachusetts, U.S. Minister to France, Negotiated treaty with Great Britain ending the Revolutionary War, U.S. Minister to Britain, Author of A Defense of the Constitution of the Government of the United States.

“The way to secure liberty is to place it in the people's hands, that is, to give them the power at all times to defend it in the legislature and in the courts of justice.” 

“Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.”

“It is more important that innocence be protected than it is that guilt be punished, for guilt and crimes are so frequent in this world that they cannot all be punished. But if innocence itself is brought to the bar and condemned, perhaps to die, then the citizen will say, 'whether I do good or whether I do evil is immaterial, for innocence itself is no protection,' and if such an idea as that were to take hold in the mind of the citizen that would be the end of security whatsoever.”

“The science of government it is my duty to study, more than all other sciences; the arts of legislation and administration and negotiation ought to take the place of, indeed exclude, in a manner, all other arts. I must study politics and war, that our sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. Our sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history and naval architecture, navigation, commerce and agriculture in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry and porcelain.”
