The Twilight of the Two Party System

The following is a position paper of The Jacksonian Party.

Yesterday the Senate of the United States of America has decided that the Laws of the Land may be broken with impugnity where the National Sovereignty of the Union is concerned. This posting at Dumb Looks Still Free on the Zero Party State offers a tart look not only at that, but a President who has made the fateful decision that to save the Ship of State He must try to chart a path In Front of the Iceberg and hope the speed of the Ship will not tear its bottom asunder on the unseen ice below. This compounds the earlier decision by the Republican Leadership in the House to effectively declare that Representatives are Above All Law in their activities and should be considered Sacrosanct Landed Aristocracy.

The activities are not ones by individuals upholding their Oath of Office to abide by the Laws of the Land and Defend the Constitution of We the People. The Jacksonian Party does not CARE about what their intent *is*, only their activities and actions are of any account in this Republic and those activities are ones that have repudiated the foundation of this Nation upon the Constitution that codifies the original precepts set forward in the Declaration of Independence. Further, these activities actively break the agreement that a Federal Government shall Serve the People and Protect the States in whole and in their individuality.

The Two Party System which is vigorously presented in Civics classes and Social Studies classes as a wonder of the United States has now turned out to be a Zero Party System in which both political parties have worked towards the common end of dividing We the People so as to dissolve Our Unity and impose upon Us a class of individuals that are to be considered Royalty. While one party may have started this by shifting power for the States to the Federal Government from the 1930's onward, the other party is also at fault for buying into this scheme for their own reasons, perpetuating it and completely feeling free to Reward those that do not abide by the Law of the Land for Our collective National Sovereignty. They have both decided that the United States needs to be RULED *not* GOVERNED.

This is what their ACTIONS have done, no matter how *good* the damn intent! In weakening the States and making artificial divisions within We the People and rewarding some and denying of others special privileges and status, the two political parties have worked exactly opposite of the entirety of the Constitution. They now see the Constitution as an *obstacle* to furthering their sinecured RULE over We the People. And yesterday they made that break clean and obvious for all to see who would be bothered with wanting a Nation State that upholds the rights of the individual.

It is part of the normal course of affairs that scoundrels gain high office, now and again.

It is NOT normal that such an individual be protected by the OTHER PARTY and that the leaders of that Party that are in Leadership in the House of Representatives present that Congress as a WHOLE is above investigation by the Executive with the consent of the Judicial branch. Congress now wishes to be an unaccountable Aristocracy to Rule this Union.

And it is NOT the normal course of affairs that the highest leader of that Party holding the Office of the President will back such a belief by FREEZING an ongoing investigation so as to allow anyone who has committed crimes to have time to hide or destroy evidence or to, indeed, flee the Nation if that is their desire. And such individuals may do so by walking Southwards as there is NO OBSTACLE to that nor, indeed, to the flow of slave labor northwards. In doing this action the Executive branch is bowing to the Supremacy of the Legislative branch and abdicating the responsibility of allowing the wheels of Due Process to move in an orderly fashion so that Justice may be done in accordance with the Laws of the Land.

And it is NOT the normal course of events that the Senate shall decide that not only will breaking the Sovereignty of the United States not be effectively punished, but that those individuals that are long-term breakers of those Laws shall gain reward and benefit from the doing of same. Further, the Senate not only does *not* want to protect the southern border with a neighboring Sovereign State but has stated, in a clear grab for Executive power beyond all divisions given in the Constitution, that the United States must *ask* for the assent of Mexico to build ANY demarcation of the border in the way of a FENCE. The Senate of the United States has decided, in its majority, that the National Sovereignty of the United States shall be turned over to a Foreign Nation for VETO. Note that the Senate cites NO FOREIGN TREATY for this nor does it cite any reasoning as to WHY this should be done nor does it present this in the fashion of a normal viewpoint of the Legislature in foreign policy via a 'Sense of the Senate' proceeding. By placing this within this Bill it is the clear and obvious action of a Senate that believes itself to wield the authority of Foreign Policy on its OWN and hoping that the House will sign onto it so as to become Co-Sovereigns within the United States and strip the Executive of the Foreign Policy power clearly given in the Constitution to the Executive.

The work of the Two Party System since the 1930's has been that to divide the commonality of We the People and repudiate the Constitution in that doing. And the fruit of those long decades of giving unto the Federal Government more and more responsibilities and allowing the Legislative and Executive branches to codify their parties into perpetual power and their persons in High Office in Congress as Royalty that may not hindered by the mere Law that applies to We the People is a bitter one. We the People now stand as a People divided by ethnicity, national origin, skin color, living circumstance, sexual outlook, religious viewpoint, and fiscal wealth. Each party has pushed hard for these divisions so as to ensure that We the People will view each other with suspicion and not be able to come together to form 'a more perfect Union' and ensure 'Justice' that can be applied equally to All of the People.

Now the 'common defense' is being abdicated and the view that the Nation needs RULERS and Landed Aristocracy is at the forefront. These actions are NOT ones of elected officials to serve We the People or to Govern a Republic of Free People. These ARE the actions of Nobility seeking to establish themselves permanently upon the United States, introduce an underclass that will be beholden only unto them and will give them the power to change elections so that We the People will no longer exist as a Unified Whole, but will be putting into power a Fraction of that Whole via allowing a massive influx of foreigners who have proven unable to abide by the Law of the Land.

And in not putting any obstacle into the path of such, the expectation is that individuals with forged documentation will seek help from those organizations able to provide them quickly and enmass: Drug Cartels, Narco-Traffickers and Transnational Terrorists; plus some smattering of Communists and other Transnationalists across the globe.

Further, in not giving out imprisonment as a penalty to those taking illegal activities, but merely fining them and then actually *rewarding* their actions as *good deeds* of *hard workers*, the Senate wishes to entice MORE people to break the Law and come to the United States. And by putting paltry fines upon businesses that use enforced slave labor from illegal aliens and not preventing them from *continuing* to do so, the Senate has decided to advocate that this practice SHALL CONTINUE. The fines will be absorbed as the cost of doing business and passed on as minor price increases to We the People for the goods and services we procure.

By importing slave labor against Amendement XIII, seeking to take the power of Foreign Policy and move it from Article II to Article I and of declaring that the provisions set forth in the Constitution for allowing the search and investigation of Congressmen for 'treason, felonies and breach of the peace', the two parties via the elected members in the Federal Government are declaring the Constitution, itself, to no longer apply to the United States. Each and every one of these actions on their own is despicable. Taken as a whole they are an affront to the Union, the States and a clear indication that the status of We the People under these Supreme Parties is that of People who are to be RULED OVER, not Governed.

In opening this breach into the compact between We the People and setting the Congress up as a Supreme Power, beholden to no one, the Congress with complicity from the President have taken it upon themselves to disunite the Union and create a new Nation to their own liking.

We the People have only the recourse of Our States to fall back upon, as this is a clear and distinct break that was worried about after Shay's Rebellion. The too powerful Federal has usurped all Power and now seeks to end the meaning of a United States that has forceful and independent States within its confines. By throwing in a large underclass that will be beholden to the Federal Government, they are now putting the means in place of converting entire States to the needs of the new Aristocracy. For once the majority of States have been overwhelmed and made to bow down by this new influx of 'Citizens' and by impoverishing the rightful existing Citizenry by encouraging a flood of illegal labor to take more and more jobs from the Citizens, We the People will be ultimately divided and destroyed as a Free People and subverted to the will of the minorities set at each others throats for the goodies of the Federal Government as they dispense it.

The original division of Powers within the Constitution sets the States as having rights over which the Federal Government may have NO SAY. And so it is time to for We the People to enforce those Rights and Our Own and hold the entire Legislative and Executive Branches to account for their actions. So be it resolved the following for which The Jacksonian Party now enjoins All of the People of the States to press for, so that the Federal Government may be forced to either back the Constitution or declare it at an end and the Two Parties as the Rulers of this Land:

1) Join the Right of We the People via Amendment II with the Right of the States to exist as given in Article I, Section 10. In so doing any and all violence from illegal aliens will become Terrorism. In so doing any and all incursions by Mexican Federal Military and Police shall become open Acts of War upon those States effected. In so doing all International Drug Cartels that sustain violence within the United States via gangs shall be considered an open act of War by all Foreign Nations harboring, aiding and abetting same to do these activities, or if they are fighting them, then they are to be given assistance to end such immediately. In so doing We the People will be given the right for a 'show cause' due process system run by those that openly use arms within Our States so that Justice and Punishment for openly threatening the Right to Bear Arms and the Right of the State to Use its Law Abiding and Armed Citizens to defend it.

2) Each State shall look to its ancient right to determine Citizenship as consisting of those born within its confines by individuals here Lawfully or existing Citizens and that No Other thing shall be allowed for those here illegally.

3) To reform the Federal Government each State shall look to pass an Amendment to the Constitution that sets the House of Representatives to Represent the largest portion of the People as seen by the Founders and make such Representation be at a ratio of 1 Representative for every 30,000 People. As part of this, the House of Representatives is to be shorn of all funding for any staffing beyond those staffers necessary to coordinate current committees.

4) We the People shall lobby Congress to actually USE its powers over the Law of the Sea and Foreign Commerce and enact Warrants via the Letters of Marque and Reprisals and give bounties and prizes and awards to those Warranted to seek out and capture the goods and transport that is assisting those enemies of the United States to flourish.

5) We the People shall lobby Congress and the Executive to shear off useless appendages of the Federal Government that hand out the Wealth of this Nation to individuals and companies and Nations that do not abide by the Law of the Land or are not Friends of the United States.

6) Each State shall be enjoined to fence off their borders if they adjoin to Foreign Nations that do not attempt to stop their Nationals or those of others transiting their Nation from entering into that State illegally. And if the Federal Government asserts that it is the sole decider of such things, then they are to be told that when they have decided to abdicate their responsibilities to maintain the Union and enforce the Laws of the Land that they have given up that power and that the States and We the People rightfully assert it through Our State until such time as the Federal Government shall actually Defend Us and Uphold the Constitution.

The Jacksonian Party is disgusted with the Zero Party State turning into an Aristocratic Class that may not be brought to heel by the Laws of the Land.

The Jacksonian Party stands foursquare for the Constitution and the division of powers therein.

The Jacksonian Party advocates legal and lawful means to hold the Federal Government accountable for its misdeeds.

The Jacksonian Party reminds each and every individual of the United States that they are enjoined by the Preamble of the Constitution with the responsibility to maintain the Union beyond the mere Federal Government.

The Jacksonian Party now points out that in passing the buck of responsibility for Our daily lives to the Federal Government that We are giving up Our Rights in that doing and becoming mere supplicants to an All Power Federal Government. And since these rights were lent and not given, We the People can end that loan and tell the Federal Government to shut down its useless functions that have not helped the People one tiny bit and have only served as a means to further divide Us through the distribution of Rewards to some and not All of the People.

The Jacksonian Party points out that the Government of the People, By the People and For the People can only be changed if the People wish to remain Free as individuals and not serfs upon this land.
