JURY DUTY IN CALIFORNIA
Filed Under Articles of Confederation, COMMON LAW, CONSTITUTION, Fourteenth Amendment, JURY DUTY, Northwest Ordinance, ORGANIC LAWS | Leave a Comment
With only a few exceptions, the English common law is the law in California. However, as very few people are aware of that legal fact, statute law has been widely applied outside of the State of California, the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America. To show how State of California statute law has been extended beyond the territory just described, I will explain the meaning of the requirement in the State of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 203 that a juror must be a “domiciliary of the State of California.”
Pursuant to the Organic Laws: Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776, Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 and Constitution of September 17, 1787 the United States of America has conferred concurrent jurisdiction over its territory in California. Concurrent jurisdiction is acknowledged in Article 3 Section 1 of the Constitution of the State of California: “The State of California is an inseparable part of the United States of America, and the United States Constitution is the supreme law of the land.” Article 4 of the Northwest Ordinance makes the State of California forever part of the Confederacy: “The said territory, and the States which may be formed therein, shall forever remain a part of this Confederacy of the United States of America, subject to the Articles of Confederation, and to such alterations therein as shall be constitutionally made; and to all the acts and ordinances of the United States in Congress assembled, conformable thereto. The inhabitants and settlers in the said territory shall be subject to pay a part of the federal debts contracted or to be contracted.”
The Constitution of the United States provides for no less than three Citizens of the United States. In Article I Section 2 Clause 2 provision is made for a Citizen of the United States within territory where the age of majority is attained at eighteen, the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America. In Article I Section 3 Clause 3, a Citizen of the United States is without the United States, so the age of majority is age twenty-one years. The third citizen of the United States is a Fourteenth Amendment citizen, who must be born or naturalized in the United States, the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.
The State of California Constitution Article 3 Section 1 definition of the State of California and the State of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 203 requirement that a juror be at minimum a citizen of the United States and a domiciliary of the State of California makes it nearly impossible for any Californian to qualify as a juror. In order for the State of California to be both an inseparable part of the United States of America and a place where a citizen of the United States might have a domicile, the State of California must be a habitable place. To be an inseparable part of the Confederacy, the State of California must be the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.
The initial formation of the Confederacy under the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 did not involve a transfer of any territory that constituted any part of the original territory of the thirteen States. The Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 Article 4 transfers of territory to the Confederacy consisted of the territory to remain under the ownership of the United States of America and would remain subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.
In order for a Californian to qualify as a juror that Californian would have to have a permanent place of abode within a national park or forest within California.
The State of California juror qualification law is not unique every State requires jurors to be domiciled in federal territory because that’s where written law is the law.

FACEBOOK CO-FOUNDER RENOUNCES HIS U.S. CITIZENSHIP
Filed Under Adoption, CONSTITUTION, Fourteenth Amendment, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW, Martial Law, PROPRIETARY POWER, Territorial Jurisdiction | 1 Comment
Eduardo Saverin the Los Angeles Times reports has given up his U.S. citizenship and as a result tax experts predict significant tax savings for him. The Times reported that Saverin was “one of 1,780 former Americans who renounced citizenship last year.”
According to the Times Saverin was born in Brazil, came to the U.S. in 1992 and became a U.S. citizen in 1998.
What did Eduardo Saverin give up? At the most he gave up his Fourteenth Amendment citizenship, which diminishes in value as more is discovered about the founding of the United States.
What is a Fourteenth Amendment citizen? “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. “Saverin was naturalized according to legislation limited to the territory owed by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.
What do we learn from this news report? A Fourteenth Amendment natural born or naturalized citizen must be within the United States, the territory owed by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America to “be subject to the jurisdiction thereof.”

DO YOU KNOW MORE LAW THAN THE CANDIDATES FOR THE OFFICES OF PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES AND PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA?

If you are a regular reader, you know the basis of all written law in America is the Organic Laws of the United States of America. The current Republican candidates and the incumbent Democrat Barack Hussein Obama know there’s a Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776 and the Republicans are equally convinced there’s a Constitution that’s not being followed. No one in government is aware of the two Organic Laws between the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of September 17, 1787.
Do any of the candidates for President know the Office of President of the United States of America is filled immediately when the Electoral certificates are counted? Has any Republican candidate figured out that Barack Hussein Obama was already President of the United States of America when he took the oral oath of Office of President of the United States?
A republic is a form of government where the head of State is not a monarch. The American presidency combines the office of head of State, the President of the United States of America with the office of head of the government, the President of the United States, to form a kind of government that is neither republic nor democracy.
Shouldn’t the incumbent President know more about the law and government than you? What are you going to do about the dumbed down Presidents?

IS THERE A SAFE CITIZENSHIP?
Filed Under Adoption, CONSTITUTION, Fourteenth Amendment, LAW OF THE LAND, ORGANIC LAWS | Leave a Comment
The Fourteenth Amendment defines the citizen of the United States with a lowercase “c.” The Constitution of September 17, 1787 does not define Citizen of the United States, but it does require Senators to be Citizen of the United States, so when the First Congress met in New York City on March 4, 1789 no Senator could have been a Citizen of the United States because the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776 did not create a government with citizens. In fact, the government contemplated in the Declaration of Independence could only exist with the consent of the people. However, no amount of consent could create a government from the Declaration of Independence.
The Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 did create a government of free and independent States albeit with no power to tax or legislate. Maryland became the thirteenth State to ratify the Articles of Confederation on March 1, 1781. The nine years a Citizen of the United States could be counted from the full ratification of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 on March 1, 1781. The first Senators to the First Congress could not qualify until after March 1, 1790.
None of the officers elected, after the Constitution of September 17, 1787 was ratified by nine States, qualified for a constitutional office, because none of them took and subscribed a written oath “to support this Constitution.”
I nominate “Citizen of the United States” as a safe citizenship.

AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP OR UNITED STATES CITIZENSHIP?
Filed Under CONSTITUTION, Fourteenth Amendment, IMMIGRATION, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW | 1 Comment
The illegal immigration debate is underway and as usual the politicians are talking about the 14th Amendment, American citizens and citizens of the United States. The 14th Amendment is clear: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”
Senators are seriously talking about amending the 14th Amendment, so the children of illegal aliens will not be American citizens at birth. These Senators should read the 14th Amendment as many times as it takes to sink in—the Amendment is about citizens of the United States not American citizens.
The United States is a place where very few illegal aliens give birth.

The Judiciary Act of 1789
Filed Under CONSTITUTION, Declaration of Independence, Fourteenth Amendment, GRAND JURY, IMMIGRATION, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW, Martial Law | Leave a Comment
September 24, 1789.
1 Stat. 73.
CHAP. XX.–An Act to establish the Judicial Courts of the United States.
SEC . 2. And be it further enacted, That the United States shall be, and they hereby are divided into thirteen districts, to be limited and called as follows, to wit: one to consist of that part of the State of Massachusetts which lies easterly of the State of New Hampshire, and to be called Maine District; one to consist of the State of New Hampshire, and to be called New Hampshire District; one to consist of the remaining part of the State of Massachusetts, and to be called Massachusetts district; one to consist of the State of Connecticut, and to be called Connecticut District; one to consist of the State of New York, and to be called New York District; one to consist of the State of New Jersey, and to be called New Jersey District; one to consist of the State of Pennsylvania, and to be called Pennsylvania District; one to consist of the State of Delaware, and to be called Delaware District; one to consist of the State of Maryland, and to be called Maryland District; one to consist of the State of Virginia, except that part called the District of Kentucky, and to be called Virginia District; one to consist of the remaining part of the State of Virginia, and to be called Kentucky District; one to consist of the State of South Carolina, and to be called South Carolina District; and one to consist of the State of Georgia, and to be called Georgia District.
Section 2 of the Judiciary Act of 1789 is one of the early products of the Constitution of the United States, which proves the United States is the land in the United States of America owned by the Confederacy known as the United States of America. Long before the Fourteenth Amendment claimed a person could be born in the United States and not just in one of the States of the United States, the Judiciary Act of 1789 had established two judicial districts in places that were not yet States of the United States of America.
The judicial districts of Maine and Kentucky were on September 24, 1789 comprised of the same territory such districts are comprised of today—territory owned by and ceded to the United States of America. By ratifying the Constitution of September 17, 1787, the States of Massachusetts and Virginia had decided to make Maine and Kentucky part of the United States.
Section 2 speaks with absolute clarity: “That the United States shall be, and they hereby are divided into thirteen districts, to be limited and called as follows.” The “United States” as territory has always been limited to territory owned by and ceded to the United States of America.
If you have had it with being a citizen of the United States, try something better. The Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 offers all the privileges and immunities of citizenship without the hardship.

ARIZONA STATE LEGISLATORS WANT TO DENY U. S. CITIZENSHIP TO THOSE BORN OF “ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT” PARENTS
Filed Under Articles of Confederation, CONSTITUTION, Fourteenth Amendment, IMMIGRATION, LEARNING THE LAW | 1 Comment
The Fourteenth Amendment was intended to confer citizenship on former black slaves, however, the language of the amendment has been used to create a new type of citizenship unrelated to allegiance to one of the States of the United States of America.
Article IV Section 2 Clause 1 of the Constitution: “The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States,” requires equality of State citizenship. The several States are the States of the United States, as the Constitution was written, as if it replaced the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, which did not occur.
The Fourteenth Amendment citizen does not owe allegiance. The Fourteenth Amendment citizen is subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, meaning that person remains on land owned by the United States of America.
The State of Arizona will lose, because the States are required by Article IV of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 to recognize in qualified free inhabitants all privileges and immunities enjoyed by citizens in the several States.

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, Oath of Office, ORGANIC LAWS, Presidential Elector, PRESIDENTS, 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.

If you have a note and mortgage or trust deed and lien on your home, there is a 50% chance that you are “upside down” or “underwater” with respect to your equity in your home.
Half of you owe more than your house is worth, yet you will still be expected to pay property taxes. If the prospect of paying property taxes for steadily deteriorating public services, weren’t enough to cause you to give up completely there is the looming prospect of an increase in the interest rate you must pay on your home loan.
Do not despair. The end of this world approaches and a better new one is coming.
The literal world is coming to an end and a world that does not depend on the written word will replace it.
Long before the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment was claimed to have amended Article I Section 2 Clause 3, that section and clause of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 was the fallback source of a State’s power to make laws and impose direct taxes on property located within each of the States that had ratified this Constitution. Your State imposes property taxes on the land you own and the home on that land which are the improvements to that land based on a statement in that State’s constitution that all property with certain exceptions is taxable. That statement in the constitution is based on the Constitution of the United States and nothing else.
Article I Section 2 Clause 3 is authority to impose direct taxes on property other than real property:
Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound t to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons.
The States of the second more perfect Union are comprised of territory owned by and ceded to the United States of America. These States cannot, according to Article IV of the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787, impose taxes “on lands the property of the United States.”
You can confirm that your State has no authority to impose a property tax on your land and any improvements to that land by asking the property tax assessor and property tax collector in “your” county for proof of their authority to assess and to collect taxes.
When gold and silver was the coin of the realm, tax collectors had to be bonded, so that the government was protected from an absconding collector. Property tax collectors are not required to be bonded, because property taxes are paid voluntarily with fiat currency. Sure, a property tax bill is sent out, but that was done at your request. Somewhere on the deed to your property will appear the request to send the property tax bill to you.

What keeps you from being an Indian not subject to taxation? Most of you were probably born on what used to be Indian lands, so you can qualify to be Native Americans, if only you can lose your Fourteenth Amendment citizenship.
The Constitution of September 17, 1787 attempts to set up an official federal Union comprised of the States of the Northwest Territory, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and part of Minnesota. Before it could do that the secret Constitutional Convention had to create a federal Union within the original thirteen States. That Union was set up in Article I Section 2 Clause 3:
Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons.
