3. Problem #1
The 9 States which Established the U.S. Constitution had not submitted their
constitutions to “the people”.
Delaware - 1776 -". . . not submitted to the people but was proclaimed . . . "
Georgia - 1777 -". . . not submitted to the people . . . "

5. Because historical evidence supports the
fact that the 1787 United States
Constitution was not submitted to the
people who were enfranchised to vote for
its ratification, perhaps it's time for “the
people" to ratify the 1787 “Constitution
for the United States of America” and
begin anew.
Solutions to the Faults
6. Because we are the shareholders; “the owners of one
or more shares of stock in a corporation, commonly
also called a "stockholder." The benefits of being a
shareholder include receiving dividends for each
share as determined by the Board of Directors, the
right to vote (except for certain preferred shares) for
members of the board of directors, to bring a
derivative action (lawsuit) if the corporation is poorly
managed, and to participate in the division of value
of assets upon dissolution and winding up of the
corporation, if there is any value. A shareholder
should have his/her name registered with the
corporation, but may hold a stock certificate which
has been signed over to him/her. Before registration
the new shareholder may not be able to cast votes
represented by the shares.”
(See: corporation, shareholders' meeting, proxy)
And,
7. And, because IN CONGRESS,
on July 4, 1776, it was penned:
When in the Course of human events, it becomes
necessary for one people to (1) dissolve the political
bands which have connected them with another,
and (2) to assume among the powers of the earth,
the separate and equal station to which the Laws
of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a
decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires
that they should (3) declare the causes which impel
them to the separation.
8. And, Article 1 § 2 of the CONSTITUTION of the
COMMONWEALTH of PENNSYLVANIA (1838, 1874, 1968),
authorizes to “the people” inherent political
powers, to wit;
“All power is inherent in the people, and all free
governments are founded on their authority and
instituted for their peace, safety and happiness.
For the advancement of these ends they have at
all times an inalienable and indefeasible right to
alter, reform or abolish their government in such
manner as they may think proper.”
9. There appears to be evidence sufficient to show
that the 1787 “Constitution for the United
States of America” was never submitted to the
people who were enfranchised to vote for its
ratification.
It is, therefore, incumbent upon, “the people"
to ratify the 1787 “Constitution for the United
States of America” and begin anew with the
nullification of amendments 11 through 27.
An Action Plan follows
10. 1. Shall the 1787 “Constitution for the United
States of America” be ratified?
A "yes" vote supports the ratification of the 1787 “Constitution for the
United States of America”.
A "no" vote opposes the ratification of the 1787 “Constitution for the
United States of America”.
Two Ballot Measures with the
following text may be proposed:
11. 2. Shall Amendments to the 1787 “Constitution
for the United States of America”, eleven (11)
to twenty-seven (27) be nullified?
A "yes" vote supports the nullification of Amendments eleven (11) to
twenty-seven (27) to the 1787 “Constitution for the United States of
America”.
A "no" vote opposes the nullification of Amendments eleven (11) to
twenty-seven (27) to the 1787 “Constitution for the United States of
America”.

13. “The theory of nullification is based on a view that the States formed the
Union by an agreement (or "compact") among the States, and that as
creators of the federal government, the States have the final authority to
determine the limits of the power of that government. Under this, the
compact theory, the States and not the federal courts are the ultimate
interpreters of the extent of the federal government's power. Under this
theory, the States therefore may reject, or nullify, federal laws that the
States believe are beyond the federal government's constitutional powers.
The related idea of interposition is a theory that a state has the right and
the duty to "interpose" itself when the federal government enacts laws that
the state believes to be unconstitutional. Thomas Jefferson and James
Madison set forth the theories of nullification and interposition in the
Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions in 1798.”

17. "Educate and inform the whole mass of the people... They
are the only sure reliance for the preservation of our liberty."
"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.“
"If a nation expects to be ignorant and free in a state of
civilization, it expects what never was and never will be."
