Death of the American Republic

Part 1
Facing Yesterday
Long before federalism was introduced to the American continent, Federal
forms of government flourished throughout much of the European continent.
Ancient Greece and Rome are two examples of the earliest forms of Oligarchy
(federal) governments.
The Federal form of government is still the preferred style of government favored by the rich and select few, and has been since the earliest of times. Federalism (Oligarchy) is preferred because it puts the rights and benefits of a select few ahead of the common masses of people, and grants first priority for funding and legislation to the first class of people in society. Whatever is left over, only as a secondary measure, then goes to the rest of the people.
A new government and empire started emerging in 313 CE at Constantinople, and by the year 330 CE the new government was fully under way. By 380 CE this new Federal form of government had fully merged with its religious counterpart for the mutual benefit and gain of each other, and in 800 CE the framework was laid in Europe by Charlemagne, King of the Franks, for this Federal/Christian form of government.
In 1295 CE, Edward I, King of England, established a Parliament based on the basic principals of federalism, and by 1607 CE England and other parts of Europe had started developing a much more complex form of Federal/Christian government to counter the instability of monarchy type governments. Kings and Queens would remain in many places, but they found their governments more and more under the control of the select few.
The Federal/Christian form of government would undergo another series of changes between 1700 and 1800, and these changes would set the stage for the form of Federal government that would survive into the modern world of 1998.
As the English started coming to America in 1607, with them came white slaves and the seeds of Federal/Christian government. These early and affluent settlers had with them white slaves who had been captured from bands of Keltic peoples, and these people were forced into servitude at the point of a sword, loaded up on ships and sent to America. For most of the Kelts in this situation the only alternative to being forced into servitude was death, and in a short time span dating from approximately 1620 to 1660, an untold number of Keltic people were condemned to death in Europe by the Federal/Christian governments. The modern day Holocaust of six million Jewish people almost certainly paled in comparison to the overall acts of genocide that was methodically carried out against the Keltic people by federalist powers. Those Keltic people, who had been forced to come to America, as it turns out, were the lucky ones.
The early times in America were extremely harsh on the people. Disease attacked the people often, and when disease didn't attack the people, they had to worry about attacks from unfriendly Native Americans who felt that these newcomers wanted nothing more than their land and other resources.
Early colonies were soon being formed out of the earlier settlements, and the new governments being formed by these Colonies were mostly of the federal form. The early days of federalism had begun in America, but in the minds of the common people was the eventual hope for a new form of government where the people would have a share, and the quest for a true and real "republic" was born in the minds and hearts of the people. Unrest among the common people started becoming commonplace, as the masses of people were tired of the generations of abuse by the old Federal/Christian governments of Europe, and many common people now viewed America with a new expectation of hope for release from the bonds of slavery by the select few.
As years went by in Europe, it was becoming a reality in the British and European political and banking sectors, that this restlessness of the American people was going to lead to a separation of America and themselves. The masses of people in the new land were restless for a new form of government and way of doing business, and the prize financial plum of America was in danger of slipping away from the political and financial rule of the select few. This prize financial plum of the new world would have to be looked after, and it would be absolutely necessary for America to adopt a federal form of government and banking. Federalism could not afford the possibility of a true "republic" emerging, especially one that had the potential power and resources that America held. The events in America were not going unnoticed by the federalist powers in England or by the other Federal powers in Europe.
So the yoke of oppression and abuse was tightened on the American people by the military might of England in an effort to preserve federalism. Americans were extremely bitter and resistant to British force and rule, and soon sporadic fighting broke out between British troops and bands of American patriots. England was not going to retain this new land and these brave American patriots were going to stop the advancement of British federalism at all costs.
Many of the American people had ancestors that had suffered the tyranny and abuses of the federalist/Christian form of government for countless generations before them, and in this new land their families and future generations, were going to have somewhere to live without the fear of oppression and slavery that had plagued the masses of common people for so long.
On July 4, 1776, the Declaration of Independence emerged, penned by the hand of the ever-vigilant anti-federalist, Thomas Jefferson. With the words, "We mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor," the cry for freedom and independence resounded from Independence Hall throughout all the land to all the people, both rich and poor.
Come fight, come join with us, help us make America free for all, and so the cry for assistance went out from the affluent to the common people, to join forces and help drive the British federalist influence out of America. There were agreements made and promises exchanged between the common people and the rich. From the common people would come the strength and manpower that the Revolution needed in order to succeed, and from the rich came the assurances of unity and equality in government for the common people.
For the common peoples assistance and participation in the Revolution, assurances and promises were given to the people that the new American government would be a "government of the people, by the people, and for the people," and most important of all to the masses of people, came the absolute assurances from those in power that the new government would be a true and real "republic." This new government would be a bold and grand experiment that had never been tried before. So the rich and the poor pledged on their sacred honors to fulfill their obligations to each other and to a new America, but most of all the common people put what little trust they had left, into the promises the rich had pledged on their sacred honor.
These were the promises envisaged on the common people by the affluent; a guarantee of a government that would be a true "republic," where all Americans would be equal. Included in the promises would be the absolute guarantee of the separation of church and state, and the right to worship any belief as one might follow; taxation would be equal, simple, fair and based on the enumeration of people, and the taxation would not overly burden the common people. Other rights would include money that was stabilized and backed by gold and/or silver, and the money would remain firmly in the hands of the people. There would be broad and sweeping debtor protection aimed at protecting the interests of the common people and old British federalist debts would be completely wiped out. Basic human rights according to the "Laws of Nature and Man" would be guaranteed in perpetuity to the people, along with the promises of other broader rights to be written into the new government. Also of major importance to the people was the assurances of uniformity and fairness as to how laws would be written and applied. Included all agreed, should be a provision for the general welfare and protection of the people. To accomplish and continue these promises and guarantees, the government would be structured as a true and genuine "republic," where the rich and the common people would share the power of government together, side by side. In order to achieve and continue the necessary goals, there would always be a system in place that would guarantee to the common people an ever increasing and sufficient number of representatives within government. The common people would finally be able to share equally in the administering of the new government by virtue of being able to hold equally high positions within their government. These were part of the images conceived in the minds of the common people by the rich and affluent, and promised to them as their reward for their help in the Revolution.
For the common people this was the realization of thoughts and visions that had eluded most of them and their ancestors for over a millennium, and so they united together with the rich and together they fought a long and bloody Revolution for full independence. The common people would provide their assistance in hopes of securing for future generations to come, a government and a country filled with "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness" on an equal basis, for all of the people. All of the dreams and aspirations of the masses of common people was finally within their power to acquire.
The misty blue haze of Revolutionary battle had not even started clearing away from the fields of conflict, when the already established federalist conspiracy and takeover was at work, slowly undermining and chipping away at the power that was to go to the common people, and redirecting that power back to the federalists and their associates. The select few, federalists, were going to make sure that they stayed in power at all costs and they were not going to share this new government with the common people.
That strong undermining federalist power had in fact been at work in America since 1772, when the key player for the federalization of America, Alexander Hamilton, arrived in New York from St. Croix, British West Indies. British born and educated, Hamilton had spent the last seven years in one of the British financial houses learning every aspect of banking, and by the time Hamilton had arrived in New York he was already known to certain European federalists as one of the most knowledgeable bankers and financial manipulators of his day. Hamilton was also known to the federalists for his powers of persuasion as well as for his banking abilities.
All of Hamilton's brilliance and genius had not gone unnoticed by the strong European federalist powers and in Hamilton the federalists saw a way for them to put into check the American threat to their power base. Hamilton could also insure that what was the federalists in the beginning would remain theirs for a long time to come.
Certain events in history would appear to indicate, that with the blessings and association of the House of Rothschild and other great federalist European banking houses, that Alexander Hamilton had come to America with a definite plan to insure the federalization of America. The manner in which Hamilton quickly aligned himself to the American Revolutionary movement, and to General George Washington appears to verify this analysis as correct. America had its first major traitor in there midst and didn't even know it and his name was Alexander Hamilton.
In the time period between 1772 and 1776, Alexander Hamilton participated in the publication of pamphlets supporting the American cause, and it was those federalist writings of Hamilton that caught the attention of George Washington and others with close British ties, who found themselves sympathetic to what Hamilton was writing. As words and diplomacy failed and America moved into actual Revolutionary battle, General Washington took on Hamilton as his aide and gave him a commission in the Continental Army. With George Washington's trust and confidence gained this gave Alexander Hamilton the perfect situation in which to persuade Washington that federalism was the right direction for America to take. Shortly thereafter George Washington changed his views on the formation of a true and real "republic" and became an outspoken supporter of the Federalist cause.
The influence that Alexander Hamilton exerted on George Washington had a profound and long lasting effect on the direction and form of government that the United States would have.
The events that transpired in America and the actions of Hamilton that took place from 1772 until his death in a duel in 1804, at the hands of Aaron Burr, indicates that Alexander Hamilton was in fact a key player in the federalist conspiracy to secure America for European federalist powers. Facts clearly maintain that Hamilton had embarked on a course of action that would underwrite the federalization of America and also set up the necessary continuing stability for the great federalist financial houses of England and Europe.
The common people of America could win the battle, but the common people were going to lose the war for full independence to the Federal powers of England and Europe. The federalists were quietly stripping away any and all power that was to go to the masses of people in America.
With the fighting winding down it was now the task before the States to establish a lasting document that would provide for a steady and sound government. Anti-federalists like Thomas Jefferson, Samuel Adams, John Hancock, and Richard Henry Lee favored revising the older Articles of Confederation and leaving the bulk of the power to the States and the common people. The federalists on the other hand believed that a strong central government with the bulk of the power delegated to those select few that would rule best was the correct answer.
Even before the call went out to the States for a Constitutional convention, federalists like Alexander Hamilton, George Washington, James Madison, John "Mugwump" Adams, John Jay and others, had already started solidifying the necessary political maneuvering and support to see that the movement to revise the Articles of Confederation would be soundly defeated. The federalists needed a new document that would consolidate their political, economic, and property interests, while at the same time put a halt to the radical anti-federalist demands of the common people. Federalists felt that this low class of individuals did not even have the right to vote or the right to have any other special privileges, since most common people didn't even own property. The political maneuvering was almost complete and only needed a few more elements to create the desired result - A Federal government under the control of the select few.
The promises and guarantees from the rich to the common people, for their help in the Revolution, was already being broken and the first drop of ink hadn't even touched the paper of the new document.
Governors of the States were instructed by George Washington to appoint delegates to the Convention and not to hold public elections for those delegates, and on February 21, 1787 a call went out for a total of seventy-four delegates. Further instructions went to the States from the federalists, that the anti-federalists Samuel Adams and John Hancock were not to be appointed as delegates because of their extreme views against federalism. Thomas Jefferson and Thomas Paine were easy to handle, they were conveniently sent to Europe on government business. The anti-federalist Patrick Henry declined appointment because he "smelt a rat," and Richard Henry Lee, another anti-federalist, declined his appointment to the convention for similar reasons. Many other delegates that had a low class standing were either turned away or had difficulty in being admitted to the secret proceedings, and many delegates never showed up at all. John Jay, the noted federalist, declined appointment as a delegate in order to more effectively maneuver political support for federalism outside the convention.
The federalists, whose delegates far outnumbered the anti-federalists, were now totally in control of the extremely secret proceedings that were going on inside the Convention at Philadelphia.
Just exactly how many delegates did show up on opening day of the Convention remains somewhat of a mystery shrouded in secrecy, but out of the seventy-four delegates due to attend the Convention, only about thirty on the average ever showed up at the secret sessions at all. Only a total of fifty-five out of the seventy-four delegates appointed to the Convention ever showed up at all. How many delegates were not admitted, as a result of their anti-federalist views and outspoken opinions of federalism also remains a mystery that will be forever shrouded in a veil of secrecy. As the Convention started winding down to a close many of the delegates got up and left the Convention in absolute disgust of the one sided pro-federalist proceedings. At the very end of the Convention only thirty-nine of the delegates out of the seventy-four appointed signed the Constitution, and many of those delegates hurriedly left the proceedings right after signing. As a result of this walk-off and abandonment of the Constitutional Convention by many of the remaining delegates the Convention just disbanded, and as a result the Constitutional Convention was never formally dissolved according to the parliamentary rules of order. That abandonment of the Convention in itself raises some very interesting questions, thoughts, and perspectives as to the legal validity of the Convention itself. If the Constitutional Convention was not legally closed according to the proper legal procedures, then what is the legal ramification of that act and how does it effect the Constitution?
That is one question that has a whole lot of possibilities and most of those possibilities could be extremely perilous to the existence of federalism. Back to the Constitutional Convention and what happened after the delegates abandoned it.
Talk among the common people outside the Convention was very negative and not generally supportive of the proceedings, and what little was known to the masses of common people about this new Constitution did not sound good at all.
Outside the Convention the common people were very much disappointed with the secrecy that had surrounded the proceedings. Support among the common people for the Convention and for the Constitution it created continued to dwindle, as the masses of common people had come to realize that the promises made to them by the rich and powerful federalists were nothing more than conveniently constructed lies. There were even those in the convention that had their own doubts and reservations about the permanency of such a one sided document that offered so very little to the masses of common people.
By the time the Constitution left the Convention and went to the States
only about 2.5% of the total population in America favored adoption of the
Constitution. The federalists realizing that the consensus, 97.5%, of the
population was against the adoption of the Constitution, they sent it to
the States with strict instructions that the legislatures were to ratify
the document without regard to any ratification process by the popular vote
of the people. Support really started to dwindle for the Constitution as
this news made its way to the masses of people. There was another serious
problem with this new Constitution; it did not have the guarantees to the
masses of common people of any of the basic human rights that had been promised
to them. Almost all of the common people were starting to view the new government
and the new Constitution as being no better than the British government
they had just gotten rid of, and sentiments were running heavily against
ratification because of those feelings and perceptions made by the common
people.
Out of this controversy arose The Federalist Papers, the anonymous writings of Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay. These papers painted a rosy picture of federalism and how good federalism was, and how much the new Constitution needed to be ratified. The papers expounded and played on the virtues of American sympathy, and gave to those in doubt reasons not to doubt. The Federalist Papers were distributed to the different State legislatures, to the public and to the newspapers. Federalism and its virtues were presented to the public and to the state legislatures as the only solution that would solve America's problems.
It should be noted that James Madison later recanted much of what he stated as a federalist and to those ends withdrew his total support for federalism, and because of that he became an anti-federalist opposed to a government ruled and put together by only the select few. Madison spent his later years writing and talking in support of the masses of people and the basic human rights that the people are entitled to. Much of those writings contain the fires and flames that provoke and incite revolutions.
Farmers, bakers, and other common people could only grit their teeth at the continuation of lies that they were hearing from the federalists. The people had been sold out once and it looked as if the people were going to be sold out again, but the anti-federalists did not give up their ground and they kept up the argument for a Bill of Rights that would protect the interests and rights of the common people. Eventually the federalists gave in to the idea of a Bill of Rights in order to secure the support necessary for the ratification of the Constitution, but the federalists fell short of giving any overwhelming or unanimous support for it. The real and true supporters of federalism have always looked warily and unhappily at the Bill of Rights.
The Federalist Papers and concessions for a Bill of Rights finally influenced and prompted the States that were reluctant to vote for ratification to finally do so, but this was only after a relentless amount of pressure was applied by the federalists.
By April 30, 1789 and with the Constitution ratified, George Washington became the first President of the United States. John Adams became the Vice-President, Thomas Jefferson was the first Secretary of State, Alexander Hamilton was appointed as Secretary of Treasury, and John Jay became the first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.
The very first act by President George Washington, and backed solidly by a federalist Congress and federalist Supreme Court, was to declare the grand experiment of a true and real "republic" an utter failure and not a workable form of government, and Washington immediately set aside the common peoples form of government and declared the government of the select few, federalism, the form of government for the United States. And so was born the Federal government of the United States. With no internal opposition to speak of Washington immediately set about filling the rest of the key positions within government with federalists.
The first and greatest act of the new Federal government was the dirtiest and most foul of all deeds ever done to the masses of common people in America, the murder and death of the true American Republic! America would remain firmly in the hands of federalism because of this unconstitutional and traitorous act to the American people and their rights.
Federalists in Europe and America were ecstatic about their victory over the common people and the new American government, and the common people were just left out in the bitter cold of enslavement like they always had been. To make matters worse Federal troops were enforcing martial law in some areas to guarantee that rebellions would not break out against the new Federal government.
All of the official records of the Constitutional Convention were immediately seized and impounded by the Federal government. When they were finally released fifty years later only a few of the documents were conveniently left. The only real notes and papers to survive were all supportive of federalism, and most noteworthy of these were The Papers of James Madison as published by the government in 1840. The narrow view of federalism became the authoritative and only view of the Constitutional Convention. These writings and The Federalist Papers became the federalist imposed proper perspective for the American people to follow, the guidelines for being a real American.
The later writings of Madison that opposed federalism were largely forgotten by the people and by government.
In 1789 the Bill of Rights, which originally contained twelve articles, was sent to the States for ratification and on December 15, 1791, ten of the articles became the Bill of Rights. Note: The first ten Articles are the people's rights and the other seventeen Amendments that have been added are the Federal government's rights to misconstruct the Constitution and use against the people. This represents two Bills of Rights, one for the people and one for the powerful federalists of Federal government.
Alexander Hamilton, Secretary of Treasury, immediately started setting up the banking and monetary system as well as the necessary financing that the new Federal government would need. That first banking systems modern counterpart is more commonly known as the Federal Reserve System and like the first system it is all in private ownership with a majority of the ownership being foreign interests. While America's older financial system did have some amount of public ownership, its modern equivalent has none and this was not the original intention of the Constitution. The federalists have managed to maintain their control over the American government and financial system by virtue of Alexander Hamilton's traitorous actions, and the common people as usual, have been the ultimate losers that have had to pay the ultimate price for that transgression.
Thomas Jefferson was totally upset over the banking and financial situation that Hamilton had initiated and imposed on America, and worse yet for Jefferson, there was relatively little Jefferson could do to stop or moderate the federalist takeover of Americas government and financial system.
The common people were totally powerless to take any real action against the federalists at this point, and federalism appeared to be taking the upper hand in stabilizing its control over the government, banks and money that rightfully belonged to the American people.
