PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES GEORGE WASHINGTON AND PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA GEORGE WASHINGTON THE POWER TO MAKE THE LAW AND TO ENFORCE IT
Filed Under Articles of Confederation, Electoral College, LEARNING THE LAW, LIBERTARIAN, Oath of Office, PRESIDENTS, Presidential Elector | Leave a Comment
George Washington was elected President of the United States of America on February 4, 1789, by Article II Section 1 Clause 2 Electors, who are today known collectively as the Electoral College. Article II Section 1 Clause 1 of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 vests the executive Power in “a President of the United States of America.” George Washington took the oral oath to the Office of President of the United States on April 30, 1789.
Article I Section 1 vests “All legislative Powers herein granted” in “a Congress of United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.” Article I Section 7 imposes legislative duties on the President of the United States, making him an employee.
George Washington’s solution to combining executive and legislative powers? Just call Mr. President.
Once a Student masters the Constitution of September 17, 1787, reading the law is child’s play, but why bother, if all law is written for the government or the land owned by the United States of America. Want limited government? Don’t bother voting Libertarian, forget about voting all together. Enroll in my Basic Course in Law and Government and learn the law that limits the federal government to what it owns and the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.

BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA IS DOING A POOR JOB, BECAUSE THERE SHOULD BE THREE PRESIDENTS, WHO FILL THREE DIFFERENT OFFICES OF PRESIDENT
Filed Under Adoption, Article II Section 1 Clause 5, CONSTITUTION, OBAMA, Oath of Office, PRESIDENTS, Presidential Elector | Leave a Comment
There are three Constitutions and three Offices of President. There is a Constitution for the United States of America and a President of the United States of America. There is a Constitution of the United States and a President of the United States. And last, there is a Constitution of the United States of America and an Office of President.
The Constitution of the United States of America has not been adopted because the Article II Section 1 Clause 5 Office of President has not been filled:
No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
George Washington the first person elected President of the United States of America, on February 4, 1789, according to the Constitution for the United States of America, wasn’t a natural born Citizen and couldn’t meet the “fourteen Years a Resident within the United States” requirement of the Constitution of the United States of America until after July 4, 1790. Without a person who can take the Article VI oath to be bound “to support this Constitution,” there is no government bound by any constitutional oath.

YOU, TOO, CAN BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

Before George Washington could become the first President of the United States, there had to be a United States he could preside over.
The Declaration of Independence created a United States of America on July 4, 1776, but King George III was not sufficiently impressed to let the thirteen American colonies go free. Great Britain would not let go of the Americans until the Treaty of Paris of 1783. In the mean time, the thirteen States began organizing around the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 and by March 1, 1781 all those States were perpetually bound into the Confederacy known to this day as the United States of America.
The Americans, of course, won the War of Independence and lands south of Canada once claimed by the British, the Northwest Territory. The Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 made this former British territory permanently part of the United States of America Confederacy. These United States, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and part of Minnesota were the first States of a new Union of States, which belonged to the United States of America and were, also, of the United States of America.
The Constitution of September 17, 1787 that comes out of a secret session of the Constitutional Convention of May 25, 1787 was part of the plan for there to be a “United States” for George Washington to be President of the United States of. Before Washington can become President of the United States he has to be first elected to the Article II, Section 1, Clause 1 office of President of the United States of America on February 4, 1789, so he can appoint himself to the office of President of the United States.
As President of the Constitutional Convention, Washington knows that he must first be elected President of the United States of America by the State’s Presidential Electors before he can take the oral oath of office of President of the United States. Those famous Framers of the Constitution have concocted an elaborate oral employment oath grander than the Article VI oath and almost poetic in its tone for the person, who is to fill the office of President of the United States.
Only Washington and his confederates know that neither he nor anyone else will be eligible to the Article II Section 1 Clause 5 Office of President until July 4, 1790. Anyone with any political influence is in on the conspiracy to take over the Confederacy and replace it with a Roman Republic.
Many of these confederates have been elected to the first Congress, which will meet for the first time on March 4, 1789 in New York City. It will be the responsibility of this Congress that all Americans know that this Congress is preparing the new oath of office for the new government and the oath will be the first Bill Congress passes and the first one George Washington signs as President of the United States.
George Washington has made it possible for anyone to be President of the United States. Thanks to George there are no age, citizenship or residency requirements for the office of President of the United States. To be a President of the United States all you have to have is a voice. You can even whisper the oath as George Washington did the first time he took the oath.

USING THE BASIC COURSE IN LAW AND GOVERNMENT TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY FROM FEDERAL FORECLOSURE
Filed Under Electoral College, Foreclosure, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW, Martial Law, OBAMA, ORGANIC LAWS, Oath of Office, PRESIDENTS, Presidential Elector, Property Taxes | 1 Comment
The Democrat Health Care Reform Bill that is now the “Law of the Land” is just one more reason to learn that the “Law” is always first a Bill that passed Congress and had to be presented to “the President of the United States” for his approval and signature. Since all 44 Presidents have been both President of the United States and President of the United States of America, there will be many who will say it doesn’t really matter whether Barack Hussein Obama signs as President of the United States or President of the United States of America.
I agree. George Washington was elected President of the United States of America on February 4, 1789, took no oath of any kind for that office, but he took that office and the office of President of the United States just by whispering an oral oath on April 30, 1789. Every President since Washington has done the same thing and gotten away with it till now.
Neither the President of the United States nor the President of the United States of America takes a written oath and that fact will allow you to protect your property, when the United States Department of Justice brings a suit for money damages, based on the “Law of the Land,” on behalf of the United States of America. All the Presidents have been employees of the United States of America, so all the judges and Justices those Presidents have appointed are no more than employees.
If you tried to buy a bicycle, boat or an automobile on credit, and you refused to sign an agreement to make the payments, no sane person would do business with you. Neither President of the United States Barack Hussein Obama nor President of the United States of America Barack Hussein Obama has signed a written oath “to support this Constitution” as required by Article VI of the Constitution. All 44 Presidents have ruled by the power of the “Law of the Land” and no one has bothered to discover that the “Land” is just the territory owned by the United States of America, so if your property isn’t on federal territory the President’s “Law” isn’t a match to your land.

WHY, WHICH PRESIDENT SIGNED THE DEMOCRAT HEALTH CARE REFORM BILL IS A BFD
Filed Under Adoption, Article II Section 1 Clause 8, Articles of Confederation, CONSTITUTION, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW, OBAMA, ORGANIC LAWS, Oath of Office, PRESIDENTS, Presidential Elector, Territorial Jurisdiction | Leave a Comment
Today was the signing ceremony for the Democrat Health Care Reform Bill. Vice President Joe Biden introduced Barack Obama as the President of the United States of America and then proclaimed the event a BFD, apparently because the President of the United States of America was going to sign instead of the President of the United States.
When Barack Hussein Obama spoke to the multitude of Democrats assembled to witness the signing, he said the Bill was bringing health care to everyone in the United States of America. Barack Hussein Obama did not correct Vice President Biden and state that he was signing the Bill as President of the United States, as required by Article I Section 7 of the Constitution of September 17, 1787.
The Constitution is just a piece of paper, because no matter what copy you have no one in government has ever taken a legal oath “to support this Constitution,” meaning a written one. Barack Hussein Obama like all prior Presidents fills two offices and takes one oath an oral one that cannot bind him to a written Constitution. Barack Hussein Obama can sign the Democrat Health Care Reform Bill as President of the United States of America, because the Constitution of September 17, 1787 is a useful illusion of legality for government.
Article II Section 1 of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 vests the executive Power in “a President of the United States of America.” When Rhode Island became the thirteenth State of the original and perpetual Union to ratify “this Constitution,” that ratification was a unanimous alteration of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 to amend Article IX to make the office of president the office of President of the United States of America. Barack Hussein Obama was most certainly elected by the Presidential Electors, now the Electoral College, to be President of the United States of America. The problem with the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 for those in government is that there is no power to tax or make laws. The third Organic Law, the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787, provided the power to tax and make law in territory owned by the United States of America. Ratification of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 by all the States permitted the creation of a “United States” within each State that was all the Congress and President of the United States needed to create a United States of America out of the federal territory in each State. When Barack Hussein Obama is President of the United States, he is President of those United States.
Article I Section 7 of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 sets out the procedure for enacting a Bill:
All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills.
Every Bill which shall have passed the House of Representatives and the Senate, shall, before it become a Law, be presented to the President of the United States; If he approve he shall sign it, but if not he shall return it, with his Objections to that House in which it shall have originated, who shall enter the Objections at large on their Journal, and proceed to reconsider it. If after such Reconsideration two thirds of that House shall agree to pass the Bill, it shall be sent, together with the Objections, to the other House, by which it shall likewise be reconsidered, and if approved by two thirds of that House, it shall become a Law. But in all such Cases the Votes of both Houses shall be determined by yeas and Nays, and the Names of the Persons voting for and against the Bill shall be entered on the Journal of each House respectively. If any Bill shall not be returned by the President within ten Days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented to him, the Same shall be a Law, in like Manner as if he had signed it, unless the Congress by their Adjournment prevent its Return, in which Case it shall not be a Law.
Every Order, Resolution, or Vote to which the Concurrence of the Senate and House of Representatives may be necessary (except on a question of Adjournment) shall be presented to the President of the United States; and before the Same shall take Effect, shall be approved
by him, or being disapproved by him, shall be repassed by two thirds of the Senate and House of Representatives, according to the Rules and Limitations prescribed in the Case of a Bill.
On January 20, 2009 at noon, Barack Hussein Obama took the special Article II Section 1 Clause 8 oral oath for the Office of President of the United States and he became the 44th President of the United States. The oral oath of Office of President of the United States is special, because no oath of office is required or taken by the President of the United States of America.
President of the United States Barack Hussein Obama signed the Democrat Health Care Reform Bill, almost as required by Article I Section 7 and the Bill became the Law of the Land. What is that Land? The Land, where federal law applies, is the same Land where federal law has always applied. Federal law is based on the proprietary and territorial power every owner of land has. The biggest Landowner in America has always been the United States of America. President of the United States of America Barack Hussein Obama can sign federal law because he has the executive Power over all the Land owned by the United States of America.
Barack Hussein Obama, President of the United States, is not a Constitutional officer bound by the Constitution of September 17, 1787 or any other constitution in any written form. The Constitution of the United States Barack Hussein Obama took an oral oath to “preserve, protect and defend” is just another name for the “Law of the Land.” As an oral oath cannot bind the person taking such an oath to a written constitution, the approval or objection to Bills and Resolutions must be taken to be a mere condition of, what must be considered, part time employment.

THE DEMOCRAT HEALTH CARE REFORM BILL: THE INEVITABLE RESULT OF ESTABLISHING A GOVERNMENT FOR THE TERRITORY OWNED BY THE UNITED STATES AND EXTENDING IT OVER UNALIENABLE RIGHTS
Filed Under Adoption, Articles of Confederation, CONGRESS, CONSTITUTION, Declaration of Independence, Electoral College, Fourteenth Amendment, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW, Martial Law, ORGANIC LAWS, Oath of Office, PRESIDENTS, Presidential Elector, Territorial Jurisdiction | Leave a Comment
George Washington was able to extend the republican form of government established for the Northwest Territory by pretending to be bound by a newly written constitution. The Constitution of September 17, 1787 binds the States that ratified it into existence, but without written subscribed oaths “to support this Constitution” that Constitution remains to this day, “just a piece of paper.” By taking an oral oath to be President of the United States, Washington was binding himself only as an employee of the Confederacy, the United States of America. By taking control of the government in this way, Washington temporarily prevented the British from attempting to re-take America, in so doing he created a federal government that could only grow, if the people are kept ignorant of its territorial limitations.
There can be no doubt that the power of the present federal government has gone far beyond the tyranny of the British that brought on a hostile American rebellion against English colonial rule. Americans are supposed to be free yet a Democrat President of the United States and Congress are embarking upon a socialist inspired cradle to grave welfare legislation scheme. Blame it on the British.
The excesses of the Democrat Health Care Reform Bill may finally eradicate the last vestiges of British rule in America by significantly exposing the fraud that has allowed federal taxation and legislative power to be applied outside the federal government and way beyond the territory owned by the United States of America. Presidents and Congresses of the United States since George Washington and the First Congress have been using the proprietary and territorial powers relinquished by King George III to make laws for the United States. Their dirty little secret? Those United States were first the property and territory of the United States of America, the Northwest Territory, made up of the States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and part of Minnesota.
The British Parliament ruled the American colonies with regal power because that was the source of its legislative and taxation power. Over the centuries the English monarchy lost to Parliament the power to tax and legislate. What remained of royal English government power was exercised by the English King George III, who was the source of executive government power in the thirteen American colonies prior to the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776. After the Declaration of Independence, English monarchical power steadily declined, until, in the Treaty of Paris of September 3, 1783, King George III relinquished his governmental, proprietary and territorial power to the United States of America Confederacy.
By the time of the Treaty of Paris, the British government power in America was no more and all the former colonies were operating independently as free and independent States. None of the British government powers survived the American Revolution and even if they had no person could hold the title necessary to discharge them. Article VI of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, which had been fully ratified on March 1, 1781, when Maryland became the thirteenth State to ratify the Articles, prohibited the granting of titles of nobility by the United States in congress assembled or by the individual States.
The proprietary and territorial powers were attached to substantial British land claims over the Northwest Territory, which would become the States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and part of Minnesota. Using the proprietary and territorial powers relinquished by King George III, the United States in Congress assembled made the resolution of April 23, 1784 and then repealed it with the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787.
George Washington was elected to the Article II Section 1 Office of President of the United States of America, unanimously, by the Presidential Electors on February 4, 1789. The office of President of the United States of America, which was an Article IX office in the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, was modified by the Constitutional Convention of May 25, 1787 in Article II of the Constitution of September 17, 1787. Since the Confederacy was a perpetual Union of independent States, the Articles of Confederation were only binding on those States, therefore, no oaths of office were appropriate or even possible.
Washington took the oral oath of office of President of the United States on April 30, 1789, in order to mislead all Americans that his oath was “to support this Constitution,” the Constitution of September 17, 1787. Legally, all George Washington had done was to bind himself as employee of the Confederacy. His election to the office of President of the United States of America bound him to the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776, the Articles of Confederation and the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 because no oaths were required to make them the Organic Law of the United States of America. Of the four Organic Laws, only the Constitution of September 17, 1787 requires a written subscribed oath to make it binding on an individual.
The Democrat members of Congress who voted to enact Health Care Reform legislation have all taken a written and subscribed oath required by statute in addition to a ceremonial oral oath of office. Their office, U.S. Representative, is a statutory office not a constitutional one. Like the President of the United States, U.S. Representatives have authority limited to the territory owned by the United States of America. Since the ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment, the States of the Confederacy have encouraged the expansion of the government of the United States by freely recognizing the right of inhabitants to become U.S. citizens, while failing to recognize the right Inhabitants have to all the privileges and immunities of citizens without being citizens.
The narrow passage of the Democrat Health Care Reform Bill should confirm everything I have written in these Posts. Where, but federal territory could such so-called reform take place? If you are opposed to what government is doing, voting for the opposition candidate will never provide a solution to bad government. The federal government was planned for a place where the Constitution of September 17, 1787 would always be just a piece of paper. Written law is limited to a defined place and the Basic Course in Law and Government is the only source of legal training that will teach you how to define your own private space as free from government intrusion.

THE ARTICLE 2 SECTION 1 CLAUSE 8 OATH OF OFFICE AND MY BASIC COURSE IN LAW AND GOVERNMENT
Filed Under Article II Section 1 Clause 8, CONSTITUTION, Martial Law, ORGANIC LAWS, Oath of Office, PRESIDENTS, Presidential Elector, Territorial Jurisdiction | Leave a Comment
My Basic Course in Law and Government teaches the Student how to prove all written law in America is based on a Constitution limited to the territory actually owned by and the territorial jurisdiction of which is ceded to the United States of America. Since April 30, 1789 every President Elect, since George Washington, has taken an oral oath of Office of President of the United States, which avoids being bound to a written Constitution. George Washington and every President of the United States after him has taken an oath to “preserve, protect and defend” the property and territory owned by and ceded to the United States of America. That President and the Congress of the United States make the written laws for the United States of America.
George Washington added a prohibited Article VI “religious Test” to the oath of Office of President of the United States:
“I, George Washington, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. So help me God.”
Adding “So help me God” to the oral oath of Office of President of the United States, was Washington’s way of covering his tracks to the office of Presidential Dictator, the President of the United States. Why is the President of the United States a dictator? Very simply, there are no qualifications for the office and no term limits.

CLINTON IMPEACHMENT: 800 PAGE BOOK FAILS TO UNCOVER THE TWO KINDS OF IMPEACHMENT
Filed Under Article II Section 1 Clause 5, Article II Section 1 Clause 8, Articles of Confederation, CONSTITUTION, IMPEACHMENT, Oath of Office, PRESIDENTS, Presidential Elector | Leave a Comment
William Jefferson Clinton like all Presidents, since George Washington, was elected to the Office of President of the United States of America under Article IX of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777. And, just like George Washington he only took one oath, the oral oath of Office of President of the United States.
The Articles of Confederation makes no provision for impeachment of the incumbent President of the United States of America. The Constitution of September 17, 1787 makes provision for the impeachment of the President of the United States by requiring in Article I Section 3 Clause 6, only that: “When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside.” So much, for the misbehavior of the President of the legislative branch, Congress can impeach for any reason or no reason.
The Constitution of September 17, 1787 sets out the eligibility for the President of the executive branch in Article II Section 1 Clause 5:
No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
No one would be able to meet the “fourteen Years a Resident within the United States” until after July 4, 1790, so the executive branch Office of President has remained vacant since George Washington took this oral on April 30, 1789:
“I, George Washington, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. So help me God.”
Legal scholar and historian Ken Gromley was able to write an 800 page book on the Clinton impeachment without discovering the grounds for impeachment “for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors,” set out in Article II Section 4 do not apply to the legislative Office of President of the United States.

TODAY IS PRESIDENTS DAY, SO PICK A PRESIDENT
Filed Under Adoption, Article II Section 1 Clause 5, Articles of Confederation, CONSTITUTION, Electoral College, Oath of Office, PRESIDENTS, Presidential Elector | Leave a Comment
The President of the United States of America, the President vested with the executive power of the Committee of States of Article IX of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, is elected by the Presidential Electors now called the Electoral College. This President takes no oath of Office, because he has no duties.
The President, whose duties are found in Article II of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 has never taken the Article VI oath “to support this Constitution,” because the Article II Section 1 Clause 5 Office of President has never been filled.
The President of the United States takes an oral oath to faithfully perform the duties set out for the Office of President of the United States in Article I of the Constitution of September 17, 1787.
The Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 created a perpetual Union on March 1, 1781, when the State of Maryland became the thirteenth State to ratify the Articles of Confederation.
The Constitution of September 17, 1787 was established, as the Constitution of the United States, between the nine States ratifying that Constitution, when New Hampshire ratified on June 21, 1788.
On July 26, 1788 the State of New York became eleventh State to ratify the Constitution of September 17, 1787, which was now the Constitution of the United States.
George Washington was elected President of the United States of America on February 4, 1789.
On April 30, 1789, George Washington became President of the United States by taking this oral oath:
“I, George Washington, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. So help me God.”
Every American President has been President of the United States of America, without taking an oath and President of the United States, by taking an oral oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

DO YOU REALLY HAVE TO RENDER UNTO CAESAR?
Filed Under Article II Section 1 Clause 5, Articles of Confederation, CONSTITUTION, Declaration of Independence, Electoral College, LEARNING THE LAW, OBAMA, ORGANIC LAWS, Oath of Office, PRESIDENTS, Presidential Elector, Territorial Jurisdiction | Leave a Comment
Do you really have to submit to the authority of any government? Two kinds of government can be found in the Bible: one based on unwritten law and all the others are written law governments.
At the time Jesus Christ was trying to establish the Kingdom of God on earth, the Roman Empire ruled most of the world using a number of deities for support. Rendering to Caesar the things that were Caesar’s did not put the Romans in forgiving and charitable mood toward Christians, who were officially and cruelly persecuted.
The Emperor Constantine relented and Christians were free to be Christians as long as they were obedient to government. The English monarchy had such a strained relationship with some Christians that many left England for America and the freedom to worship as they wished.
All man made governments must have written law or the claim will be made those governments are without authority and are unjust. The America colonies were charted by the British government, so the American colonists owed allegiance to the English King, George III at the time of the Declaration of Independence, which stated the American’s case for independence.
The Americans defeated Great Britain in battle and the British King relinquished “all claims to the Government, proprietary and territorial rights of the same, and every part thereof,” in the Treaty of Paris of September 3, 1783.
The thirteen States of the original Union, the Confederacy under the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, which had declared their independence from the British crown, did not have the authority to accept the Government power over the American people, who were now free and independent. The proprietary and territorial rights were lawfully conveyed according to the Laws of Nations, however, the American people were free and not subject to disposition by the British crown.
The defeat of Great Britain left Americans without a Caesar. The Constitutional Convention of May 25, 1787 had to re-invent the Roman dictator in the guise of an elected ruler who would crown himself king for a term of years. George Washington was born to rule American even if it was to be only for a short time.
Washington was elected by the Presidential Electors on February 4, 1789 to the Office of President of the United States of America, an office which required no oath and which had no specific duties, because that Office was under the authority of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777. On April 30, 1789, George Washington crowned himself President of the United States by taking the oral oath of Office of President of the United States, and office, which had legislative duties, but no eligibility requirements.
Washington became a Roman Caesar by avoiding the Article II Section 1 Clause 5 Office of President, which required the occupant to qualify for office and be bound by a written oath to support the Constitution ratified by the States.
Barack Hussein Obama became the 44th American Caesar at noon on January 20, 2009, when he took the oral oath to the Office of President of the United States.
The latest President of the United States wields the only powers the King of England had to relinquish: proprietary and territorial over the lands in America owned by the British crown. Who must render unto this American Caesar? Only those in the government of the United States and those on the territory owned by and ceded to the United States of America must render something to Caesar.
When the people of the conventions of the first thirteen States of the United States of America under the authority of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, ratified the Constitution of September 17, 1787, surely some of them thought more than the States would be bound. 222 years later, only my Students are aware of the great Constitutional Conspiracy that resulted in the coronation of 44 Caesars, to become one of my Students, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com.
