Continental Congress 2009 Nearing Completion.
As the Continental Congress 2009 winds down this weekend, I pause to reflect on the 4 days I filled in as an alternate delegate. I left inspired by the knowledge and dedication of my fellow delegates, yet also aware of the daunting task before us.
The Congress, as a representative body of the people of the 50 states, (duly elected by those who did not have too much apathy to pay attention), will result in a series of documents that details and evidences the abuses of the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government. If Congress is not bound by the Constitution, then the American people are not free, more like well fed animals in cages. If congress can do anything it wants to do, regardless of restrictions laid out clearly in the founding document and the amendments to it over two centuries, then we are no longer a government of the people.
Most Americans have sensed this for a long time, exercising their voting power in elections time after time, yet seeing nothing ever really changing, except the approval ratings of congress creeping lower and lower. But you have other powers as well, elections are just the first bite of the apple.
As you will see, if you pay attention, over the next few months you will learn of the extensive power you do have, and how the genius of the founders anticipated the future tyranny of government officials. Stay tuned.
