  • The preface to Everything You Know About The Constitution Is Wrong (Snowden 2013)
  • We are living in an unconstitutional age in the United States
  • "Incorporation", the Supreme Court has been applying the Bill of Rights to States
  • The Constitution is constantly appealed to
  • But, you may know nothing about the system of Federalism
  • The first was the Articles of Confederation, there ought to be a third Constitution
  • Power to be adjusted away from the federal government, back to the States
  • There is no attempt to improve anything, the ship is sinking
  • People finally revolt in circumstances of imminent danger, death, starvation
  • The Sixties, the draft, people started to revolt
  • People in the United States, have access to their entertainments
  • Mind altering drugs, illegal and legal, psychoactive medication
  • 150 years ago, everything was in terms of "words"
  • Today, Americans are bathed in the satisfaction of constant entertainment
  • "It was just like in a movie," why are Americans so curiously unmoved?
  • You do not want standing armies, the military-industrial-congressional complex
  • Principles are alive in your Constitution, today, they have no living force
  • National government, used by power hungry people to justify their own abuses
  • After the Civil War, Constitutional government ceased in the U.S.
  • Sovereignty, at the founding, was envisioned, as State sovereignty
  • The United States is so sprawling, it intrudes into domains reserved for the States
  • Foundational principles, not read, not understood, that should be animating society
  • Jefferson, was in favor of a revolution, with each passing generation
  • The theory of Federalism, problems with the Bill of Rights
  • Sovereignty was possessed by kings, supremacy, no one is higher
  • Autonomy, within your domain, there are not others on the same level
  • Independent colonies, fully sovereign, they were autonomous and supreme
  • The States might not have joined the Union, West and East Florida
  • They were Nation States, they set up, a government, the Articles of Confederation
  • The States had unenumerated powers, you can do anything that you want
  • The Federal Constitution was one of enumerated powers
  • The Federal government was an agency, an intermediary, between States
  • Treaty power was reserved to the Federal government, as intermediary
  • Madison resisted a Bill of Rights, Hamilton as well, a contradiction in terms
  • Real government belonged to the States, Federalist 45 - Madison
  • The States, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people
  • Imagine, a Federal government, it's powers, restricted
  • After the Civil War, State powers had to be diminished
  • American imperialism, that's been going since the 1880s
  • The Federal government is a sovereign, not bound by the Constitution
  • Congress shall make no law, did not mean, States could not
  • Barron v. Mayor & City Council of Baltimore
  • The founding fathers intended, limitations on the Federal government
  • State constitutions are superior, better clarity, more fullness of protection
  • The founders intended you to have free speech, that was clearly not the case
  • You gained the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, only since 2010
  • The 14th Amendment, undo the damage of the Dred Scott Decision
  • Change the meaning, as an American citizen, you were granted rights
  • The Federal government is not the entity you go to for rights
  • Citizenship in the United States was contrary to the original vision
  • In the 20th century, the process of incorporation began
  • The Supreme Court would grant rights against the States
  • Not granted by legislatures, construed by the Supreme Court
  • How are excesses possible? the powers of the Federal government expanded
  • It's clear that a new Constitution is required in the United States
  • Not really possible, the train has left the station
  • Empires always grow and then they decline
  • The Founding Fathers were opposed, to being paid to be a professional soldier
  • A standing army, it was unthinkable
  • If you returned the focus to the States, it might result in a shift in thinking
  • Away from, this civilization sprawling military that obeys only itself
  • The entire system of corruption, the sheer number of persons
  • Over a million people with security clearances, we are the conspiracy
  • It's not some them, the economy, we are the ones attacking ourselves

  • When a crime against the people, becomes a crime against the state
  • You really no longer have unenumerated rights as an American
  • Aaron Swartz, hounded, saw no other way out than suicide
  • The idea of popular sovereignty, the people collectively were the sovereign
  • You treat the people with respect, public servants, serve the public
  • Because they are allowed to get away with murder literally,
  • Everybody's a slave, a unit of labor, you're a consumer
  • So much bailout money ended up in banks in Europe

  • Dr. Mantik has a Ph.D in physics, and is also medical doctor
  • A CTKA review by Dr. Mantik, "Cold Case JFK" vs. Cold Hard JFK Facts
  • Jim DiEugenio who runs that site, felt this program would be of particular interest to me
  • It was so hilariously incorrect and disingenuous
  • They omitted this huge paper trail, which suggests some serious problems
  • We have multiple individuals attesting to a different weapon
  • It was not a German Mauser in the official report
  • Nova simply says, Lee Harvey owned the Mannlicher-Carcano
  • No one could pinpoint Oswald's purchasing such bullets
  • The Marine Corps purchased four million rounds
  • WC exhibit 856, fired through a cadaver's wrist, truly deformed
  • The supposed trajectory, had no choice, but to shatter a part of the bone (in JFK)
  • The skull x-rays, a trail of metallic like particles across the top of the skull
  • Measure the angle of the particle trail, and it doesn't fit at all
  • 16 degrees above horizontal is what it should have been
  • Oswald would have been hovering above the plaza in a hot air balloon
  • We don't see an exit hole at the back of the skull
  • We know the witnesses saw a large hole, which implies a shot from the front
  • The particle trail suggests that the shot came from the front
  • Eyewitnesses, saw, a small entry hole, on the right forehead, near the hairline
  • That shot is too high, to match the blowout at the back of the head
  • That shot came from the right just in front of, near the top of the right ear
  • James Jenkins, saw a small hole in exactly that location
  • Jenkins, the assistant at the autopsy, was standing literally a few feet away
  • That entry hole could match very well with the large blowout
  • The Parkland neurosurgeon (Clark), said it was caused by a tangential bullet
  • Nova, used laser data, from the grassy knoll, 105 feet, downward 4 degrees
  • The last shots, two of them were very close together, bang-bang
  • The Harper Fragment, matches the patholigist's entry site, a shot from the right-rear
  • Evidence for Zapruder film alteration is now so overwhelming,
  • Dr. Mantik is open-minded, timing, orientation, all of that is in doubt
  • Two shots from the front, a third from the rear, wounds on his body,
  • A shallow wound, right-upper back, the throat wound, from the front,
  • We have five shots that struck him
  • It would be very difficult to impose the particle trail on the x-rays
  • The 6.5 mm object is not authentic, no one saw it the night of the autopsy
  • John Ebersole, did not want to talk about that 6.5 mm object
  • X-ray optical densities show a lot of missing brain at the front
  • Autopsy photographs show a largely intact brain, a gross paradox
