American People will never relinquish their Sovereignty

To the United States Government.Revised and updated by – Sovereign,

In England, the King is sovereign {supreme authority under God}.

In 1783, at the end of the Revolutionary War, the King of England ceded (lawfully transferred) his sovereignty to the American Colonists and their posterity (the People) via the treaty "the Peace of Paris".

In the "48" Continental States, the People are Sovereign. The government is merely an agent and the servant of "We the People", Sovereign People.

Contrary to what the government and even justices would like us to believe, the People have never ceded their sovereignty to the United States Government.

And, because we are Sovereign, it is beyond the power of the government to usurp that Supreme power from us.

Many court decisions regarding the sovereignty of the People in America were made in the early years of our country. This is because the principle of the "sovereignty of the People" is well settled in Law and was not challengeable in later courts. Because its principles cannot be overturned, these decisions are still binding today.

The following Supreme Court decision reaffirmed this principle of Law as recently as 1967.

"In the United States the People are sovereign and the government cannot sever its relationship to the People by taking away their citizenship."

Afroyim v. Rusk, 387 U.S. 253 (1967).

"The People of a State are entitled to all rights which formerly belonged to the King by his prerogative." Lansing v. Smith, 4 Wendell 9, 20 (1829)

In Europe, the executive is synonymous with the sovereign power of a state…where it is too commonly acquired by force or fraud or both…In America, however the case is widely different. Our government is founded upon Compact. Sovereignty was, and is, in the People.

Glass v. The Sloop Betsy, 3 Dall 6.

The People, or the Sovereign are not bound by general words in Statutes, restrictive of prerogative right, title or interest, unless expressly named.

Acts of limitation do not bind the King nor the People.

The People have been ceded all the Rights of the King, the former Sovereign.

Note:

Page 2: Wheat 402

It is a Maxim {an established principle} of the Common Law that when an act of Parliament is made for the public good, the advancement of religion and justice, and to prevent injury and wrong, the King shall be bound by such an act, though not named; but when a Statute is general, and any prerogative Right, title or interest would be divested or taken from the King (or the People) in such case he shall not be bound. The People vs. Herkimer, 15 Am. Dec. 379, 4 Cowen 345 (N.Y. 1825).

There is no such thing as a power of inherent Sovereignty in the Government of the United States.

In this Country, Sovereignty resides in the People.

Congress can exercise no power which they have not, by their Constitution entrusted to it: All else is withheld.

Julliard v. Greenman, 110 U.S. 421.

Here in America, Sovereignty rests with the People

Chisholm. Ex’r. v. Georgia, 1 L. ed. (2Dall) 415, 472.

The words "People of the United States" and "citizens" are synonymous terms, and mean the same thing. They both describe the political body who, according to our Republican Institutions, form the sovereignty…They are what we familiarly call the "Sovereign People", and every citizen is one of this People, and a constituent member of this Sovereignty.

Wong Kim Ark. Page 914, quoting Dred Scott v. Sandford, 60 U.S. 393, 19 Howard 577.

According to the Supreme Court, in

United States v. Lee, 106 U.S. 196, at 208;

Under our system the People, who are there [in England] called subjects, are here the Sovereigns. Their Rights, whether collective or individual, are not bound to give way to a sentiment of loyalty to the person of a Monarch. The citizen here [in America] knows no person, however near to those in power, or however powerful himself to whom he need yield the Rights which the Law secures to him…

Sovereignty and the 50 states.After the Revolutionary War, each state maintained its status as a separate contiguous Nation in Law, operating under its own separate state Laws and state Constitutions which are subordinate to [subject to] the Constitution for the United States of America and the Laws made in pursuant of it.

In America, we have "51 different governments, foreign in relationship to the other.

A state, itself, is merely a conglomeration of the Sovereign People.

The State Government is not sovereign.

Page 3: Wheat 402

The Sovereignty of the State resides in the People, thereof.

California, Title I, Article I, Section 100.

State Governments are but Trustees acting under a derived authority.

4 Wheat 402.

The People in their capacity as Sovereigns made and adopted the Constitution; and it binds the state governments without the state’s consent. The United States, as a whole, therefore, emanates from the People and not from the states, and the Constitution and the Laws of the states, whether made before or since the adoption of that Constitution of the United States are subordinate to [subject to] the United States Constitution and the Laws made in pursuance of it. 4 Wheat 402.

Did the People Relinquish their Sovereignty

in the Constitution?

Government officials are the agents and servants of the sovereign People. The Constitution was and still is, a compact [a mutual contractual consent between parties, regarding rights] entered into by the sovereign People of the states. In this Constitution, 18 very specific "powers" were delegated to the United States Congress. Although the People delegated certain management "powers" to the federal government, they did not delegate their actual "sovereignty", either before or after the ratification of the Constitution.

The supreme authority is still held by the People. Being a sovereign is like being an "owner’. For example, if you owned a business and hired a Manager to whom you delegated certain powers or responsibilities, you certainly would not dilute your actual ownership position. You are still 100% the owner. You may even delegate all of the ownership powers but that still does not make the Manager the Owner. You, the owner, could still fire the Manager and either hire whomever you please or re-assume all of the ownership powers yourself. As the owner, you are still the "Supreme Authority" in your business.

"While sovereign powers [i.e. "ownership powers"] are delegated to agencies of the government, sovereignty itself remains with the People, by whom and for whom all government exists and acts."

Yick Wo v. Hopkins & Woo Lee v. Hopkins, 118 U.S. 356.

Pursuant to the 10th. Amendment of the Constitution for the United States, as follows, those powers not delegated to Congress were retained by the state and by the People.

"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

Page 4: Wheat 402

10 th . Amendment.

Prior to the adoption of the Constitution, states [through the sovereign people] possessed unlimited and unrestricted sovereignty and retained the same ever afterward. Upon entering the Union they retained all their Original power and Sovereignty, except such as was surrendered to the government or they were expressly prohibited from exercising by the United States Constitution.

Blair v. Ridgely, 97 D. 218, 249. S.P. & People v. Coleman, 60 D. 581.

The People are the fountain of sovereignty. Governments are but trustees. The People, as the original fountain might take away what they have lent and entrust to whom they please.

4 Wheat, 402.

Neither the State Government nor the United States Government is sovereign over the People of the 50 states. They are merely agents and public servants.

Under our form of government, the legislature is not supreme. It is only one of the organs of that absolute sovereignty which resides in the whole body of the People. And like other bodies of government, it can only exercise such powers as have been delegated to it, and when it steps beyond that boundary, its acts are utterly void. Billings v. Hall, 7 California 1.

The People are the sovereign owners of America and the boss of the government. The People do not dilute their sovereignty by delegating authority to others any more than the King of England would lose his sovereignty by delegating certain powers to others. If America is to be restored to the well respected, prosperous, and righteous and free Nation it once was, it is up to We the People, the absolute sovereigns to make it happen. It is time for the American People to unite and use the power of our election to do some house cleaning in our government.

"Power concedes nothing without demand"

Sovereign Americans, they are stealing our Country. Let us get it Back.
