The Bill of Rights to the Constitution of the United States of America.

Vatic Note:  Please print these out and copy for distribution every where you can and do the same with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and also again, get them out and please include our blog as a source of information and coordination for your neighbors and everyone on your mailing list, ESPECIALLY THE YOUNG PEOPLE, hit schools and parking lots and stores.  This is how we are going to have to do it in the beginning, more later, and it means spreading it out everywhere so they will be able to respond when needed.   These are for those of you in each of your countries to use as a model and to ensure your sovereignty and protection of your inalienable rights you were born with as accepted by all peoples of the globe.  I will explain later how to do it without going through your government system.

We will try to keep them up for a couple of weeks off to the right side and down below so you can recopy them or pass them around for others to recopy.

Congress of the United States begun and held at the City of New-York, on Wednesday the fourth of March, one thousand seven hundred and eighty nine.

THE Conventions of a number of the States, having at the time of their adopting the Constitution, expressed a desire, in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers, that further declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added: And as extending the ground of public confidence in the Government, will best ensure the beneficent ends of its institution.

RESOLVED by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, two thirds of both Houses concurring, that the following Articles be proposed to the Legislatures of the several States, as amendments to the Constitution of the United States, all, or any of which Articles, when ratified by three fourths of the said Legislatures, to be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of the said Constitution; viz.

Need to repeal that UNconstitutional 17th Amendment. The only hope we have is a national state by state ratification to add our latest Amendment:

1. Repealing the 17th 2. Inact term limits 3. End the Fed Reserve Act. 4. Create a new debt free currency to pay off the Federal Reserve Notes
