Ask a sheriff to describe the origin of his territorial jurisdiction and he will tell you the entire county has always been his territory, but if you ask him about any federal property located within that county’s perimeter and he will deny any jurisdiction over that land.  The States of the second Union the United States identify the counties within a State by name and draw boundaries called county lines, by metes and bounds.   None of the States identify or describe the territory within the county lines as federal lands owned by the United States of America.  Where can the legal division of legislative power between State and federal government be found?

Title 1, Section 2 of the United States Code defines a county as, “The word ‘county’ includes a parish, or any other equivalent subdivision of a State or Territory of the United States.”  The phrase “of the United States” means belonging to the United States of America, the Confederacy.   States of the 50 State Union must accept the federal definition of a county as consisting of all the territory belonging to the United States of America, as the Constitution of the United States and the laws made pursuant to that Constitution is the supreme law of the land.  Upon close examination, all State and federal written  legislation will be found to be applicable only to government and to lands owned by the United States of America.       

 The Congress of the United States is recognized as having complete legislative power over lands owned by the United States of America and, as for the States, there is the popular belief that the State legislatures somehow get legislative power from the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of September 17, 1787.

The  Posts on this site have explained in detail that the legislative power over the lands owned by the United States of America  is derived from the proprietary power every owner  possesses over property.  All that proprietary power is granted by the first nine ratifying States of the United States of America.  When all thirteen have ratified the Constitution of September 17, 1787    

All government legislative power in America is derived from the proprietary power over lands owned by the “United States,” the Confederacy, the United States of America.  

Before the Constitution of September 17, 1787 was ratified by nine States of the Confederacy, the United States of America, English common law, without the procedural and administrative power of the English monarchy, was the law in America.   The sheriff was the elected common law officer, who was popularly recognized to have the power to assemble common law juries.

After the Constitution of September 17, 1787 was ratified by nine States of the United States of America, the States of the new Union, the United States, began the process of replacing the procedural and administrative power of the former English monarchy with legislated procedural law.

This is, in a very simplified form, how  the territorial jurisdiction of the sheriff is limited to the lands owned by the United States of America within the county lines.  Does the county sheriff know the territorial limitations of his or her office?  Can you explain to the sheriff, why your property is not within his territorial jurisdiction?  If you can’t, you need to enroll in my Basic Course in Law and Government.  Contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com for enrollment information.

There widespread belief is that written law applies to the land under your house, so it is  commonly believed that both the judicial and non-judicial foreclosure processes may be brought against you and your home.  Unless you live in Louisiana, the English common law is the law, so the easiest way to avoid the severest consequence of foreclosure is to limit law enforcement to its lawful territorial jurisdiction.

President of the United States of America and President of the United States Barack Hussein Obama, who was speaking about law enforcement, as President of the United States, said about a year ago, they “acted stupidly,” in regard to the arrest of Harvard University professor Henry Louis Gates at his home by a Cambridge Police officer, because law enforcement is limited to land owned by the United States of America.   President of the United States Obama knew Professor Gates could not be arrested at his home, because the Cambridge police lacked territorial jurisdiction.   This information couldn’t get out ,so a diversion was created by the White House.

You won’t be having a “beer summit” with the local sheriff, but if you do an investigation of his or her authority you will confirm that it is limited to the land owned by the United States of America.

Unless your home is in a national forest, no sheriff has the authority to put you off your home.  Do they “act stupidly”?  They sure do, but you shouldn’t.  Enroll in my Basic Course in Law and Government by contacting me at edrivera@edrivera.com

There is no foreclosure process under the English common law, if a mortgage was not fully paid the title to the mortgaged property reverted to the mortgagee, the seller. 

There is a foreclosure process.  So how is it possible to avoid a residential foreclosure using the English common law?

In every State, but the State of Louisiana, the law is the English common law, which is an unwritten form of law.  The common law may be unwritten, but the language of that law is clear.  The words that comprise the English common law are all found and defined in any English dictionary.   

The foreclosure process has been enacted into law where the government of the United States of America has proprietary power, where it owns the land.   Excepting Louisiana, the English common law is the law where the United States of America does not own the land.  

Unless the residential property sought to be foreclosed is located on land owned by the United States of America, the foreclosure process is not available this is how the English common law is used to avoid a residential foreclosure.

 To avoid the prospect of foreclosure or any other calamity that might befall owners of property allegedly located in the United States, learn all the law and the facts about government in America.  Enroll in my Basic Course in Law and Government, by contacting at edrivera@edrivera.com

A student sent me a copy a letter he received from the Commonwealth of Virginia, Department of Taxation that had this caption.

As a new Student, he is not aware of the many nuances of a State government based on the Constitution of the United States and government taxation system based on citizen employees and employers operating on land owned by the United States of America.

When taxes were being collected in Colonial America, the tax collector had the authority of the king of England to put Americans on notice that a tax was due and owing and if it went unpaid a tax lien would be placed on that American’s property.  The king’s tax collector had the power and authority to demand the tax be paid.

This written notice and demand conveys no authority.   Because the king’s man could demand payment, payment wasn’t voluntary and the tax could be paid under protest.  The tax protest would get a real regal hearing.  Virginia sends a copy of the notice and demand to anyone who owes the Student money, so the bank, credit union or employer voluntarily pays.

Taxes are what governments charge, so they can continue to be governments.   The first governments of recorded history are of single rulers.  These rulers rule by making laws and direct orders.  The laws are carried out by bureaucrats and the decrees by employee/agents of the single ruler, which include the military forces.

Every ruler makes laws with respect to the consumption of alcohol forbidding it altogether or by regulating its manufacture.  Taxes on the manufacture of alcohol are called indirect because the tax collected is incidental to the purpose of the law producing the revenue, which is regulation.

The ruler can also impose a direct tax on all the property that is used in the manufacture of alcohol.  In order to impose a fair tax, all the alcohol making property in the realm would have to be accounted for and the amount of the tax sought to be collected would be apportioned among the owners of the property according to value of the property.  Owners of taxable property are ordered to make lists or returns of taxable property, so individual taxes can be determined.  

Indirect taxation of alcohol manufacture requires licensing and an accounting of production.  Direct taxation of the property used in alcohol manufacture requires that every owner of alcohol making property disclose the amount of such property, so the tax can be apportioned to his property.

With that background, I hope this will make taxation simple: taxes are either direct or indirect.  If you are paying property taxes, you are ruled by a king or similar single ruler.  If you are paying indirect taxes, you are producing income on the property of the king.  You could also just be making a gift.     

If you can understand this super short history of taxation, I can teach you everything hardly anyone knows about taxes, law and government.  To become a Student, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

Black’s Law Dictionary 4th Ed. defines Gift as “A voluntary transfer of personal property without consideration.”  That same dictionary defines a Demand as “A debt or amount due,” and as “An imperative request preferred by one person to another, under a claim of right, requiring the latter to do or yield something or to abstain from some act.”

The Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 permitted the temporary taxation of the settlers and inhabitants of the Northwest Territory and the Constitution of September 17, 1787 made that taxation permanent.

Now that 56 federal States have been admitted into the second Union, the United States, and 37 of those States have had their Senators accepted by the Senate, why do real property owners continue to pay property taxes?

If no demand has been made for the payment of a property tax, the voluntary transfer of personal property you  made is a gift.

The States want you to believe all property is taxable except that which the State exempt s.  The States neglect to explain that beginning with Article 4 of the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 the States have agreed that property belonging to the United States of America shall not be taxed and that the States may only legislate within the territory that belongs to the United States of America.   The self-evident truth that all men are created equal recounted in the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776 precludes government rule by majority vote everywhere except where the United States of America owns the territory.

The States also want you to believe they have the police power outside of federal territory, because it appears that the people have refused to implement the English common law in non-federal territory. 

The States want you to believe the first Union under the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 has been superseded and replaced  by the Constitution of September 17, 1787.  

If you continue to believe what the States want you to believe, you will surely lose your freedom  and may even lose your property.  To learn the truth the States don’t want you to know, enroll as a Student in my Basic Course in Law and Government.  Contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

If you will listen carefully to Barack Hussein Obama, you will soon notice that he says he is filling one office, but he never refers to it as, either the office of President of the United States of America or the office of President of the United States.   The two offices are separate and distinct, as any astute Student of the law should realize from just one critical reading of the Constitution of September 17, 1787.

That document like any other written legal document, which confers a right to a party does so by use of language imposing a duty or vesting a power.  Language imposing a duty to act creates an employment.  The office of President of the United States is an employment, because the description of that office affords no discretion, Article I Section 7 Clause 2 is one example: 

 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,  

The office of President of the United States of America is expressly vested with the executive power of the United States of America, as provided in the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, and Article II Section 1 of the Constitution of September 17, 1787:  “The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice President, chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows.”  

George Washington first combined these two offices in a carefully constructed bloodless coup.  That takeover of government has been justified by the dire economic situation of the time, according to most   historians.  The combination of the office of President of the United States and President of the United States of America made the impossible possible.  The self-evident truth that all men are created equal was turned into a lie by a lie, so the Congress of the United States could eventually rule over millions of Americans.   

Because you are reading this, you have access to the power of the truth.  All written law ever made since April 30, 1789 has been made exclusively for the territory owned by the United States of America.   The power of change cannot be acquired without paying a high price.  If freedom was free, you would have found it in the more than 300 Posts on this website.  Contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com   to become a Student .

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.

If you are alive right now and you plan to continue living, Obama Care will be in your future.  To keep your future free of federal employees, enroll as a Student in my Basic Course in Law and Government, by contacting me at edrivera@edrivera.com

The media missed the most important news in constitutional law history, when it focused on Vice President Joe Biden’s foul remark to President of the United States of America, Barack Hussein Obama, instead of realizing that for 221 years the President of the United States of America not the President of the United States has been signing all the Bills passed by the House of Representatives and Senate.

American historians are probably most responsible for the overgrown federal government, because of their unsupported claims that the Constitution of September 17, 1787 superseded and replaced the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.  This historic mistake has caused the equally erroneous and legally unsupportable belief that the President of the United States of America and the President of the United States is one office rather than two.

George Washington intentionally caused the conflation of the two offices by taking the oral oath of office of President of the United States, so that it would appear to have the binding effect of the Article VI oath “to support this Constitution.”  Becoming President of the United States by taking the oral oath for that office made Washington an at will employee of the United States of America, since he could be “fired,” impeached, for any reason or no reason, as long as, the Chief Justice presided at the impeachment.  Washington’s office of President of the United States of America was secure because he was elected for a four year term and could only be impeached “for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other High Crimes and Misdemeanors,” and only if “this Constitution” was formally adopted by a legitimate President and Congress bound by an Article VI oath, which Washington prevented from ever happening.

The Framers of the constitution carefully drafted the Constitution of September 17, 1787, so that March 1, 1790 was the earliest start date for a legitimate Congress and no person could be eligible to the Office of President until fourteen Years after July 4, 1776—July 4, 1790.  Washington was elected February 4, 1789 and he took the oath of office of President of the United States on April 30, 1789.  Congress met for the first time in New York City on March 4, 1789, a year too early for Senators to qualify under “this Constitution” but certainly qualified under the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.

The Democrat Health Care Reform Bill is unconstitutional in the sense that it does not conform to any written constitution.  It is the “Law of the Land” because it is law made for the land owned by the Confederacy, the United States of America.  The thirteen original States all ratified the Constitution of September 17, 1787 by May 29, 1790 almost a year after Congress and George Washington began making laws.  The Health Care Bill is just the very latest in government administration of the subjects of government on government Land.

The oral oath of the President of the United States is the only oath of office any of the 44 Presidents of the United States and of the United States of America have ever taken.  The 1677 English Statute of Frauds and Perjuries and American law would make the relationship created by such an oral oath an unenforceable employment agreement.  The Article VI oath “to support this Constitution” could bind a President and a government, but such a government would have to include the Article II Section 1 Clause 5 President, who would have to be bound by an Article VI oath.  Washington could not take the Article VI oath until July 4, 1790, so the delay that waiting more than a year for government to start was his excuse for starting a government without a written Constitution.  The Constitution of September 17, 1787 is nonetheless binding on the States to the extent they can be bound.

The important question for most of you reading this is: How can you be bound to an unwritten constitution?  In the present federal government, the President of the United States of America takes an oral oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States,” which turns out to be all the Land owned by the United States of America.  The Congress and President of the United States can, using the proprietary and territorial powers of the United States of America, make Law for the Land owned by that Confederacy.  If you are on that Land, or if you think you are, you are very likely to be subject to that Law.   To be free of the “Law of the Land” get off their Land by becoming a Student of my Basic Course in Law and Government.  To enroll, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com
