George Washington became President of the United States of America, on April 6, 1789, as soon as the Electoral votes were counted in a joint session of Congress.  Then Washington on April 30, 1789 took 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,” and became President of the United States.

The United States of America became a Confederacy when Maryland ratified the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 on March 1, 1781.  The Office of President of the United States of America was created by the Constitution of September 17, 1787 when New Hampshire ratified that Constitution on June 21, 1788.

The Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 created a temporary government for that district of federal land consisting of the future States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and part of Minnesota.  The Constitution of September 17, 1787, in Article I, made provision for a somewhat permanent government for the United States, consisting of a Congress of two years duration, a President and Vice President of the United States and a Chief Justice.   There can be no doubt that George Washington combined the two offices of President of the United States of America and President of the United States into a form of   the modern dictatorship where the tyrant is directly or indirectly elected by the people.

The question:   Is President Obama your President?  President Obama began his second term, according to the Constitution of September 17, 1787, the Twelfth and the Twentieth Amendments, at high noon on January 20, 2013.  Are you stuck with him for the rest of his four year term?

If you are one of the 50 States of the United States of America or one of the 56 or 57 federal States, you are stuck with President Obama.  If you are in the military or you are a federal, State or local government employee you are stuck with Obama.  Everybody else?  If you are willing to limit your visits to the United States, you can let go of President Barack Hussein Obama and re-claim your freedom.

Article II Section 2 Clause 2 of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 provides for the nominations of Officers of the United States by the President by and with the advice and consent of the Senate:

He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors,  other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law: but the Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments.

It is not the President of the United States who has the power of appointment, which is an executive power.  Article II Section 1 Clause 1 expressly vests the executive power in “a President of the United States of America,” a different Office.

The President of the United States is charged in Article I Section 7 Clauses 2 &3 with the duty to approve or object to Bills passed by the House of Representatives and the Senate he is, therefore, to administer the property and the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.   The Office of President of the United States is expressly made subject to impeachment by the House of Representatives and trial by the Senate the only condition to such impeachment being that the Chief Justice shall preside.

As there is no constitutional impediment to an elected President of the United States of America holding that Office and the Office of President of the United States, every President of the United States of America since George Washington has followed the precedent set by Washington and has held both Offices by taking the oral oath of the Office of President of the United States after his election.

The abolition of the Offices of  Collector of Internal Revenue and Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue was part of  a plan  by various Presidents of the United States of America and Congresses to expand the federal government’s legitimate taxation power beyond the United States,  the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America, by removing all the tax collecting Officers of  the United States and replacing them with employees tasked with tax collection.

The replacement of the Collectors of Internal Revenue and Deputy Collectors of Internal Revenue with employees produced a cadre of super powerful federal bureaucrats capable of gross misconduct arising from their exercise of the master’s taxing power while under the protection of  respondeat superior.  IRS Director and employee of the Internal Revenue Service, Lois Lerner has demonstrated what a bad idea replacement of the Collectors of Internal Revenue with IRS employees was.

IRS employees run the Internal Revenue Service for their benefit and the continued growth of the federal government.   They can’t be fired for fear they will rat out the rest of government.  If Lois Lerner knows the truth about the IRS, she can continue to negotiate with the federal government to keep everything she has gained so far and get more in the future.   IRS employees are like all other employees in that they can’t be held responsible for the crimes of the employer, if they carefully say: “Make a return and pay what you   owe,” which means voluntarily fill out a 1040 United States Individual Income Tax Return and pay the tax on the return.  Do that for two consecutive years and you can qualify as an     official taxpayer, according to the 1998 tax law.

The pre-1952 Collectors of Internal Revenue and Deputy Collectors of Internal Revenue actually had the power to assess an internal revenue tax and collect the tax, provided the federal tax was due in the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.   That territory has been know as the “United States” ever since the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 in Article 4 made the United States consisting of  the States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and part of Minnesota part of  the Confederacy called the United States of America.

The1894 federal income law is best way to study federal income tax law because that tax can be printed on seven pages.  It can be found at 28 Statutes at Large 509.  You can receive the Act of August 28, 1894 and the four Organic Laws of the United States of America by contacting me at edrivera@edrivera.com

The idea behind the Marketplace Fairness Act is that it levels the competitive sales field between brick and mortar merchants and Internet sales operators.   The truth is it just provides more illicit tax revenue to incompetent State governments.   The American people freed themselves from the tyrant King George III and nothing short of a coronation of a new monarch can re-impose monarchical power upon them.  This being a free country the people are free to enslave themselves individually or collectively.  A sales tax is a government charge on the privilege of selling at retail.  It is a tax on the retailer indirectly paid by the consumer in the cost of goods purchased.

The opportunity to engage in commerce is an unalienable right of every human being and the realization of that opportunity is a fundamental basis of civilization.  So, why are there sales and income taxes on commerce?   The American Revolution removed King George III from power over the American people living south of Canada, thereby, relieving them of all taxation upon their unalienable rights.  Immediately, American politicians began plotting a return to the status quo ante bellum.  By the time the Constitution of September 17, 1787 was ratified, tyrannical government was back and taxation was returning to what it had been under King George III.

Today, taxation is much worse than what it was under King George III thanks to George Washington and the Federalists.  Founding Father George led in the creation of a federal government of federal States consisting of governments with law making power over 1. the lands still owned by the Confederacy, the United States of America and 2. everyone who believed they still lived and worked in such territory.  The result was a country founded by George Washington in which Congress and the State legislatures can enact any government scheme labeled a tax.  Section 101 of Title 4 of the United States Code is a direct result of the oral oath George Washington took and the written oath or affirmation he didn’t subscribe:

Every member of a State legislature, and every executive and judicial officer of a State, shall, before he proceeds to execute    the duties of his office, take an oath in the following form, to wit: “I, A B, do solemnly swear that I will support the Constitution of the United States.”

The Constitution of September 17, 1787 related to and applied only to the territory still owned and subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.  The original thirteen States of the first Union, the United States of America, confirmed by their ratification of that Constitution that the United States of America would exercise the same power to lands it acquired post ratification in the original thirteen States.   And, as to all lands within and without the States of the United States of America, owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America. those territories were also within the United States, the Union called the United States, hence, the “Constitution of the United States.”

The persons in the States and territories, the United States, of  the United States of America were made indirectly subject to sales and income taxes defined in Section 110 of  Title 4 of  the United States Code:

Sec. 110. Same; definitions

As used in sections 105-109 of this title -   (a) The term “person” shall have the meaning assigned to it in section 3797 of title 26.

(b) The term “sales or use tax” means any tax levied on, with respect to, or measured by, sales, receipts from sales, purchases,    storage, or use of tangible personal property, except a tax with respect to which the provisions of section 104 of this title are applicable.

(c) The term “income tax” means any tax levied on, with respect to, or measured by, net income, gross income, or gross receipts.

(d) The term “State” includes any Territory or possession of the United States.

(e) The term “Federal area” means any lands or premises held or acquired by or for the use of the United States or any department, establishment, or agency, of the United States; and any Federal area, or any part thereof, which is located within the exterior boundaries of any State, shall be deemed to be a Federal area located within such State.


A sales tax is simply an income tax imposed on the net income, gross income or gross receipts of a person retailing goods or services within the United States, the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.   The United States of America can impose a sales tax within the United States, because the United States is the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.   An income tax on all income earned or generated within the United States, if not within the legislative power of the United States of America it is certainly within the proprietary power of the Confederacy, the United States of America.

Written law in general and the law of taxation in particular have been made complex so government can control more and collect much more taxes.   I have made both simpler by tracing these subjects back to their roots in the Organic Laws of the United States of America.  To get a complete set of the four Organic Laws of the United States of America, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com .  To find out how you can start a first class legal education for $50, tell me you want to become a law Student.

The lesson of the Organic Laws is that all written laws in America are limited to the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America, which is the Confederacy, the United States of America under the authority of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.

It is universally accepted that the “United States in Congress assembled,” the formal name for the member States of  the Confederacy, had no legislative authority until the United States in Congress assembled gained proprietary power over territory ceded to the United States of America by the States.

The Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 set up a temporary government for the Northwest Territorial States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and part of Minnesota and made them part of the Confederacy, the United States of America, making them United States, but not yet United States of America.  From the day of the enactment of the Northwest Ordinance, to the ratification and establishment of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 federal legislation and taxation has been territorially limited to the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.

Article I Section 2 Clause 3 of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 provided for property taxation in the States of the new Union established when New Hampshire became the ninth State to ratify and thereby establish the Constitution of September 17, 1787 among those States which have ratified.   Direct taxation of property in the United States of America is, therefore, limited to taxable personal property located, according to federal law, within the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.

It will take persistence and perseverance, but any property not located on federal territory eventually may be removed from the county’s tax rolls.

States incorporate cities as commercial enterprises with municipal purposes using the same power with which they charter purely commercial enterprises.  Where is this power to create commercial enterprises found?

We must look to the Organic Laws of the United States of America for the origin of all delegations of power from the American people, and when we look there we find the people of the States have delegated all they are capable of delegating in the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.

The free inhabitants of the United States of America are not only free to exercise their unalienable rights they must do so to remain free.  In short, the people of the United States of America have the unalienable right to govern themselves as individuals, but that right does not extend to others.  No majority of any size has the right to govern by force.

Majority rule has been imposed by the States in the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America acting as the Confederacy pursuant to the authority of the Articles of Confederation.   However, that majority rule is subject to the limitations imposed by the Constitution of the United States, the Constitution which resulted when nine States ratified the Constitution of September 17, 1787.

The Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States reserves to the States or to the people the power to incorporate cities, however, that power is limited to the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America, as expressed in the Constitution of the United States.

The key to putting any city in its federal place lies in learning the Organic Laws of the United States of America.  I offer the only Internet law course on that subject.  To learn how you can try out my $500 Basic Course in Law and Government for $50 contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

On January 8, 2009, the Electoral College votes were counted in Congress and Barack Hussein Obama was declared to be the forty-fourth President of the United States.  On November 6, 2012, Barack Hussein Obama won the popular vote and was declared a reelected President of the United States.  On January 4, 2013, Congress counted the Electoral College votes and declared Barack Hussein Obama to be elected President of the United States and on January 20, 2013 he took this oath:  “I, Barack Hussein Obama, 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.”

George Washington, the first President of the United States took this oath of office 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.”

Washington became a President of the United States of America on April 6, 1789, when Congress counted the votes of the Presidential Electors.  He may have been the first President of the United States, but he was nowhere near being the first President of the United States of America.  Washington was the first President of the United States of America with executive power and the first to combine the two offices of President of the United States of America and President of the United States.

Article I of  the Constitution of September 17, 1787 was intended to be a permanent new Union of  States awaiting qualification to join “the Union,” the Confederacy, the United States of America, however, the Constitution of September 17, 1787 was written so that office of  President of the United States of America could not be filled until after July 4, 1790, in that the person in the Office of President of  the United States of America had to be “fourteen Years a Resident within the United States,” a qualification which could not be fulfilled until after July 4, 1790.

Apparently, taking the oath and Office of President of the United States precluded George Washington from later taking the Article VI oath which required “all executive and judicial officers” to “be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution,” because neither he nor any other President has taken any other oath after being declared the winner of the Electoral vote.

The many references to “this Constitution” in the Constitution of September 17, 1787 effectively distinguished that Constitution from the Constitution of the United States, which was established, according to Article VII, when nine States ratified “this Constitution.”  George Washington rejected “this Constitution” and adopted the Constitution of the United States when he took an oral oath to “preserve, protect and defend” it instead of being “bound by Oath or Affirmation to support this Constitution.”

Clearly, the language of the written Constitution of September 17, 1787 makes the existence of more than one Constitution a certainty and the historical record settles the issue—the oath of office of the President of the United States has nothing whatsoever to do with “upholding the laws.”  The second clause of  Article VI fixes the focus of the Sixth Article of  “this Constitution” on “the Laws of  the United States, as the “the supreme Law of  the Land” and the binding of all State Judges to that law, while the only oath taken by all 44 Presidents is totally silent on the subject of  law.

The conclusion is simple: no President of the United States has ever taken an oath or affirmation “to uphold the laws.”  Fox News legal expert is just the latest victim of the myth that members of government take oaths to uphold the constitution and the laws.  Don’t you fall for media propaganda learn to read the Constitution and the three Organic Laws of the United States of America—the secret to freedom.  For your own set of Organic Laws and information about the only law school devoted to the education of free men and women, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

My “Basic Course in Law and Government,” the legal education course I devised to teach the written law and government, explains how George Washington took over government and caused the English common law to be replaced by government created written law.

How did Washington pull this off?  Very simply, George Washington invented the “inauguration” as a presidential coronation.   This is what Washington did:  First, he got himself elected to the highest office created by the Constitution of September 17, 1787, the Office of President of the United States of America.  Article II, Section 1, Clause 1 vests the executive power of  the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 in that office:  “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”

What followed was the forerunner of the current “Electoral College” system of electing the President of the United States of America, except no one knows the Electoral College is actually electing “a President of the United States of America.”

This is why no one knows the Electoral College elects “a President of the United States of America” instead of “the President of the United States,”  George Washington was elected President of the United States of America, when the electoral votes were counted in Congress on April 6, 1789.  According to the Constitution of September 17, 1787 Washington became President of the United States of America when the results of the votes were disclosed in Congress.  Washington could have refused the office of President of the United States of America, but he said nothing.  He said nothing about refusing the office.  He did say let’s an inauguration on the day before May Day, an important date in Freemasonry.

On April 30, 1789 George Washington took this 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.”

Did you catch what George Washington did?  Washington was elected to the office of President of the United States of America, which was filled when no objection was made by the person elected.  At the time George Washington took the oral oath of the office of President of the United States, Washington legally occupied the office of President of the United States of America, so he was free to take the employment of President of the United States, as the Constitution of September 17, 1787 imposed no qualifications on the person who would occupy the Office of President of the United States.  The job description of a dictator is that of a person who is both the head of State and the head of the government including the military.  George Washington became the first American dictator and every president since has followed his example.

Our State and nation is the United States of America, the Confederacy of 50 States retaining their sovereignty, freedom and independence under the authority of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.  The government of the United States of America is limited to the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.

The initials POTUS stand for the President of the United States, the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America, which is a much smaller place than the United States of America the home of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, Article IV free inhabitants.  The Confederacy of States retaining their sovereignty, freedom and independence has been minimized by Google to no greater significance than an alternative rock band that have appropriated for themselves the name” Presidents of the United States of America.”

According to Google, the President of the United States is the leader of the free world and the President of the United States of America is just one of the musicians in a rock group.  You don’t believe me?  Google “potusa.”

Federal laws are limited to federal territory—everybody who has questioned government authority knows that, but how do you prove it?  The first two federal Organic Laws, the Declaration of Independence and Articles of Confederation worked to free the American  people from an unwanted  central government by ridding America of nobility and requiring the States of  the Union to honor the right of  the people to live free of  government within those states.

The first two Organic Laws insured freedom in America, but the so-called leaders wanted to control America, so they introduced, temporarily, legislation and taxation to the Northwest Territory, the States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and part of Minnesota.   George Washington, the Congress of the Confederacy and the so-called Founding Fathers in the biggest propaganda ploy ever pulled, the drafting and ratification of the Constitution of September 17, 1787, would then convince Americans and the world the United States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and part of Minnesota was now the entire country under the central control of George Washington and the Congress of the United States.  Congress would make laws for the Northwest Territory and other federal territory, pretend it applied countrywide and then President of the United States George Washington would enforce those laws, particularly taxation, everywhere.  When Americans rebelled against the whiskey tax, Commander in Chief and President of the United States of America used the State Militias to put down the Whiskey Rebellion and stifled further opposition to the extension of federal legislation and taxation.

Proposed federal gun control legislation is, of course, federal, so it applies to what the federal government, the United States of America Confederacy. still owns and controls.  The old United States in Congress assembled is now operating as the Senate, but still under the general direction of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777—the Articles of Confederation were not repealed and replaced by the Constitution of September 17, 1787.  In fact, it can be proven George Washington planned the failed adoption of the Constitution of September 17, 1787, so the Article II Section 1 Clause 8 Constitution of the United States could be substituted.

The Constitution of September 17, 1787 ratified by the States of  the Confederacy, the United States of America, would have been the supreme law of   the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America had that Constitution been adopted by George Washington and members of  Congress, however, when that Constitution was not adopted the administration of  federal territory by the President of the United States continued commercially under the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787.

The right of self defense, as a God given unalienable right, is far more important than any Second Amendment to any unadopted constitution.  The foregoing revelations about government and its constitutions should convince you that any reliance on Second Amendment rights is ill advised.

Your intentionally inadequate public school education has left you defenseless in the face of government tyranny.  My “Basic Course in Law and Government” was created especially for the student, who wants to avoid reliance on court decisions of dubious value.    Lessons are based on unassailable historical facts and the fundamental Organic Laws of the United States of America.  To get the Organic Laws in a computer searchable form and more information on the Basic Course in Law and Government   contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

Those persons who registered so they could vote on November 6, 2012, for United States Senators and Representatives in the United States House of Representatives, also, qualified to vote for one of the candidates for President.   All the candidates for the Offices of President and Vice President were the nominees of the political parties who qualified for the Offices of President and Vice President created by the Twelfth Amendment.  Federal voters are not electors they vote for a President by voting for the Presidential   Electors pledged to vote for that candidate.  

George Washington changed the   Constitution of September 17, 1787 by forsaking that document and substituting the Constitution of the United States in its place.  Washington’s refusal to take and subscribe an Article VI oath “to support this Constitution” had no effect on the ratification by the States, but it profoundly changed the “federal government” into a military occupation which persists to the present.

Title 3—The President,   the United States Code, which has been enacted into positive law, expressly provides in Section 15 that a successful count of  the electoral votes results in an “elected President and Vice President  of the United States.”    Despite what Title 3 of the Code states the electoral process still selects the President of the United States of America and Vice President.
