A constitutional law expert claims that it will take decades to learn constitutional law.  By focusing on all the numbers and dates of the Constitution of September 17, 1787, I have reduced learning time to a few hours.   You can become a constitutional law expert by enrolling in my Basic Course in Law and Government.   

Before July 4, 1776, in America practically everyone except the Indians were British subjects.  On July 4, 1776 the United States of America was born and the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776 was its birth certificate.  Almost immediately, work began on an instrument that would unite thirteen free and independent states into one perpetual Union.  The Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 was the instrument that united all thirteen States on March 1, 1781.

Between July 4, 1776 and March 1, 1781 an American could only legitimately claim State citizenship in one of the thirteen States.  After March 1, 1781, a person could claim all the privileges and immunities of a citizen of a State as a free inhabitant without being a citizen or a person could claim to be a Citizen of the United States.

The Constitution of September 17, 1787 formally recognized the status of Citizen of the United States, when New Hampshire became the ninth State to ratify and, thus, establish that Constitution.   The elections of Representatives and Senators were set, however, it would be impossible for any Senator to meet the Constitution’s nine Years a Citizen of the United States requirement until after March 1, 1790.  Newly elected Senators would still qualify as delegates under the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 and the nine States could function as the Committee of States under Article IX and X of the Articles of Confederation.

When the first Congress convenes on March 4, 1789 in New York City none of the Senators qualified to take the Article VI oath, so the preparation of a legislative oath was the first order of business.  This is how the Constitution of September 17, 1787 became the Constitution of the United States, which George Washington swore to “preserve, protect and defend.”  The Constitution of the United States covered a territory that amounted to the lands owned by the United States of America.  To learn more about what constitutes the United States and how to enroll contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

“This Constitution” is the Constitution of September 17, 1787, which was produced in secret sessions in Philadelphia beginning on May 25, 1787.

The Preamble, which is not an official part of “this Constitution” states that “this Constitution” is for the United States of America.  There are two United States of America: one of the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776 and the other of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.

Incompetent historians and an unscrupulous legal profession have perpetuated government propaganda that alleges the Constitution of September 17, 1787 replaced the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, the second of the Organic Laws of the United States of America, which established the perpetual Union of the thirteen States that had signed the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776, the first Organic Law.

Proof that the Constitution of September 17, 1787 neither replaced nor repealed the Articles of Confederation is found at the conclusion of the third Organic Law, the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787.  At the end of the Ordinance, can be found the language of repeal, nullity and the voiding of the prior ordinance, the Resolution of April 23, 1784.  The absence of similar language in the Constitution of September 17, 1787 proves the Constitutional Convention consisting of many men trained in law never considered repeal of the Articles of Confederation.

The Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 established a temporary government for the Northwest Territory, which was replaced by a permanent one to be found in Article I of the Constitution of September 17, 1787. On April 30, 1789, George Washington took the oral oath of office of the President of the United States making him both President of the United States of America and President of the United States.

The secrecy by which the Constitution of September 17, 1787 was created permitted Washington to pretend the office of President of the United States was bound by law “to support this Constitution.”  The only oath of office Washington ever took was to “”preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States,” which would only apply to the Northwest Territory and any others lands and property belonging to the United States of America.

The Constitution of September 17, 1787 became the Constitution for the United States of America, when nine States ratified “this Constitution.”  When George Washington took the oral oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States,” he accepted the employment of  administering the lands and other property belonging to the United States of America.

There is an Article I Section 7 office of President of the United States and there is an Article II Section 1 office of President of the United States of America.  George Washington was elected President of the United States of America on February 4, 1789 and took the oral oath of office of President of the United States on April 30, 1789.

To fill the office of President, George Washington had to be fourteen years a resident within the United States.  All federal official counts are taken from July 4, 1776.  No person could qualify to fill the Office of President until after July 4, 1790 and no President Elect has ever filled that office.

The President of the United States of America is not required to take any oath under the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 and the President of the United States takes an oral oath to gain his office.

Any person who is to fill the Office of President under the Constitution of September 17, 1787 must take the Article VI written oath “to support this Constitution” by subscribing his name to that oath.

The only way to learn the historical, legal and political consequences of not filling the Office of President is to enroll in my Basic Course in Law and Government.  E-mail me at edrivera@edrivera.com to become one of my Students and a legal genius upon graduation.

California was named by Spanish explorers and claimed for the Spanish monarchy many centuries ago. 

California and Texas were republics of the Mexican Union of States and Spanish property law currently applies in these and other American States.  English is the common language in California and Texas and the English common law is the law in both places.

The original thirteen States formed the perpetual Union, the United States of America on March 1, 1781 when Maryland became the thirteenth State to ratify the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.  The State of California joined the perpetual Union when her two Senators were admitted to the Senate of the United States of America.

The State of California was admitted to the Union established by the Constitution of September 17, 1787 on September 9, 1850 and according to Article 3 Section 1of its Constitution of 1879, “is an inseparable part of the United States of America and the Constitution of the United States is the supreme law of the land.”   The State of California, an inseparable part of the United States of America, is both a government and that part of California, which is owned by the United States of America. 

The State of California does not recognize common law marriage, which is an unlicensed marriage between a man and woman, but does recognize the licensed marriages of the other 55 States of the Union established by the Constitution of September 17, 1787, which was ratified by the States, but not adopted by a government bound to support that Constitution.   

The Supreme Court of the State of California issued an opinion in a case that marriages between persons of the same sex were lawful and, therefore, should be licensed by the State of California.

Proposition 8, which defined marriage as only between one man and one woman, was approved by a majority of State of California registered voters and conforms with Title 1 United States Code Section 7. Definition of “marriage” and “spouse:” “

In determining the meaning of any Act of Congress, or of any ruling, regulation, or interpretation of the various administrative bureaus and agencies of the United States, the word ‘marriage’ means only a legal union between one man and one woman as husband and wife, and the word ‘spouse’ refers only to a person of the opposite sex who is a husband or a wife.”

Based upon these facts, the Congress of the United States of America recognizes the existence within the place called California two kinds of territory one owned by the United States of America and another owned by others not the United States of America. 

The decision and opinion rendered by United States district judge Vaughn Walker in the matter of the constitutionality of Proposition 8 is inconsistent with the Organic Laws of the United States of America and an act of the Congress of the United States of America.

The recognition by Congress and the refusal of the State of California and many other States of the United States to recognize common law marriage illustrates the nature of the Article I Section 8 Clause 18 ”exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever.”  The Congress of the United States has the power to recognize common law from outside the United States, but the States of the United States do not.

Because the officers of the federal government have never taken and subscribed a written Article VI oath “to support this Constitution,” the Constitution of September 17, 1787 has not been adopted for the United States of America.   The “exclusive Legislation” afforded by proprietary power of Congress trumps the un-adopted Constitution of the United States every time.

Has your state withdrawn recognition of common law marriage and is there a gay marriage movement in your state or has same sex marriage become a reality there?   Then you are in luck, if you want to claim your freedom.   The right to pick your marriage partner is a fundamental human right, so the attempt by the State to outlaw common law marriage and to license civil marriage is a clear signal that the State has unlawfully extended its power beyond the lands owned by the United States of America.

To take advantage of all the possibilities common law and gay marriage present, you must know law and government.  My Basic Course in Law and Government is the only one that will prepare you to take on the State government’s legal establishment.   To enroll, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

Recognizing that the United States in the oath of office of the President of the United States is the land and other property belonging to the Confederacy formed, when Maryland becomes the thirteenth State to ratify the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, solves all the above problems by putting the solutions in the hands of the people and out of the hands of government.

Weeks before the May 25, 1787 Constitutional Convention finished its secret meeting and presented the Constitution of September 17, 1787 to the  United States in Congress assembled, the United States of the Northwest Territory were made part of the United States of America.

On April 30, 1789, George Washington took this oral oath to the 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.”   This oath was to secure the lands and property belonging to the government.  An oral oath has nothing to do with a written constitution.

By now, you should have learned that George Washington took over what is known as the Government of the United States, by taking an oral oath with his fingers crossed.  Such an oath was good enough for government employment type work, but it prevented the establishment of a real government actually bound by the Constitution of September 17, 1787.

The oral oath George Washington took on April 30, 1789 is the same one all the other 43 Presidents have taken:

“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.”

Taking the Article II Section 1 Clause 8 oath means none of the Presidents have taken the Article VI oath “to support this Constitution,” the written Constitution of September 17, 1787, which means the “Constitution of the United States” is not originally a written one. 

What is the “Constitution of the United States”?  Article VII of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 provides that when nine States ratify “this Constitution” that Constitution is established “between the States so ratifying the Same,” which means everything in the Constitution that can be confirmed by those States is ratified.  The ratifying States verified the power of the Government of the United States to make law and tax in the State Lands owned by the United States of America.  The States, however, cannot confirm a government of a Congress and Presidents, because Article VI oaths are required from the persons in those offices and no one in “government” takes that oath.

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.

A constitution is made of words, which many be very common such as “a,” “the,” “this,” and “all.”  The combination of simple words with the more complex words of any constitution will present us with complete English sentences, which can be subjected to grammatical analysis to discern their meaning.

How would a scientist examine the phenomenon of the Constitution of the United States and constitutional law?  Any scientist would use the scientific method to answer any question about the  Constitution or this Constitution.

Let’s take some known facts about this Constitution, which can be called observations and see if we can reach a scientific conclusion.  It is a provable fact that this Constitution expressly provides the exact oath to be taken by only one Officer: the President of the United States.  Another fact: George Washington was the first person elected to the Office of President of the United States of America, which is vested with the executive power in Article II Section 1 Clause 1.  On April 30, 1789 George Washington set the precedent for all future Presidents of the United States of America of taking orally the oath of Office of at 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.”

How can we prove the hypothesis that the Office of President of the United States of America and the Office of President of the United States are separate offices?  Article I Section 7 of this Constitution describes the duties of the Office of President of the United States as legislative and Article I Section 1 vests all legislative Powers in a Congress of the United States. 

While we may not have proven here absolutely that these two Offices of President are executive and legislative, the value of the scientific method has been demonstrated. Countless observations remain to be made by my Students, to get in on the fun, you need to enroll in my Basic Course in Law and Government and to do that you must contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

No matter what the English common law might be in Great Britain, what it becomes in America, after the British lose the American Revolution, is completely told in the English language.

Common law crimes, for instance, like statutory crimes, consist of elements each of which must be proven in any prosecution.   In the common law, the definition of the word that describes the crime identifies the elements that constitute that common law offense.     Two kinds of thefts, robbery and embezzlement are easily distinguished by consulting a dictionary.  Did the accused use a pen to commit an embezzlement or a robbery?  How difficult will it be for the new law student to remember robbery involves force or fear?

The English common law in America becomes even more common after Americans get rid of King George III.  While he was king, George III controlled by his appointment of a Chancellor to do equity.  No king no equity.

American English common law didn’t have a chance to take hold before George Washington took over law and government on the strength of his verbal promise to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Law is complex and government remains broken, because most of us are not aware of the fraud committed by the so-called Founding Fathers.  We don’t have to dig deep to find the deception it is right where true masters of deceit would leave it, where they could use it if the   need arose.

The English common law is as common as the language we all use to communicate.  What is not common is a necessity for the truth.   If George Washington never told a lie, he seldom told the truth. He beat the British with deception and he ruled America the same way. 

You won’t learn the law at any other place and you certainly won’t learn all you need to know about Washington and the government in any other way.  To enroll in my Basic Course in Law and Government, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

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.

If all these Presidents and Constitutions are confusing, enrolling as a Student in my Basic Course in Law and Government will help you sort them out.  Contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com to get started.
