Location, location, location means nothing in written law.  Where the written law is found has nothing at all to do with the validity of the  law.

There are seven Offices of President which can be easily found in my searchable version of the Constitution of September 17, 1787.  Which President has the Power to Pardon?

The President of the United States shall sign a Bill if he approves it or he shall return it with his objections.  Those are the only two duties of the President of the United States, therefore, the President of the United States does not have the power to pardon and reprieve.

Is Article II Section 2 Clause 1 a revision of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 or part of the Constitution of the United States?  Clearly “offenses against the United States” has to mean offenses against the United States of America, therefore, only the President of the United States of America has the power to pardon and reprieve.

The Constitution of September 17, 1787 was created in secret so it could be passed off as the instrument by which the federal government was empowered to make laws for and tax the people in the States.

I went to UCLA Law School from 1968 to 1971, passed the California State Bar Exam in 1972 and practiced law until 2006, when I was disbarred because a United States district court judge issued an order against me called an injunction.  I was enjoined from making certain statements about the federal income tax.  An injunction is a remedy in equity in the federal courts.  

So, now that I can’t tell you the law, I have been teaching ordinary people how to become legal geniuses in their spare time.  Here’s a short sample lesson: the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776 eliminated equity in the United States of America by eliminating King George III.  The Lord High Chancellor was appointed by the king to do equity that which was inadequately done by common law. 

When America did away with King George III and English nobility, equity was eliminated as well.  No king, the law is the law.  George Washington, who presided over the secret Constitutional Convention of May 25, 1787 brought equity back by investing the “Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offenses against the United States” in the President.  I’m President, you are pardoned and I will appoint judges who will do equity.

Equity overrides the law and that prerogative was a power of a monarch like King George III.  To make the United States of America like Great Britain, but without the king, Washington had the Constitutional Convention create a bunch of Presidents the most important of which were the President of the United States, the President of the United States of America and the Office of President.  

The Constitution of September 17, 1787 makes provision only for the election of the President of the United States of America and allows for appointment to office of President of the United States and Office of President.   George Washington began the practice of self-appointment to the Office of President of the United States and Congress later enacted legislation that followed the election of the President of the United States of America.

One person holding the two Offices of President: President of the United States and President of the United States of America makes it appear as if one man has both military power, the President of the United States of America under the authority of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 and the local police power, the President of the United States, under the Constitution of the United States.

The piece of glue that hold this house of government cards together is that all this is true and correct in that little understood place called the United States, which turns out to be the lands the United States of America owns and governs.

This would all be impossible to believe if it wasn’t for the four Organic Laws of the United States of America: the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776, the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 and the Constitution of September 17, 1787.  The Organic Law is the fundamental and basic written law for the United States of America and it will be sent to you in a form that can be searched without cost, if you ask how you can be personally instructed by me.  Contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

The attorney general for the United States is established in Section 35 of the Judiciary Act of 1789, which act created a non-judicial legislative district court system based on the power of the United States of America to manage and administer its own property.

Eric Holder, the person, Barack Obama has picked to head the Justice Department knows all about how crooked “Justice” is in Washington D. C.  While in the Bill Clinton Administration Deputy Attorney General Holder, made the Marc Rich pardon possible.

There is no justice in the United States Government because everything in that government is statutory.  It is statutory because there is no Constitution.  Congress is making laws as if they covered everybody and everyone has come to believe it.

Which President has the power to reprieve and pardon?  If “this Constitution” had been adopted, the POTUSA would be doing the pardoning.  Adoption of this Constitution requires that the POTUSA take the Article VI oath and that would allow the pardoning of crimes against the United States of America.  

The POTUS is a statutory officer, who has been granted pardoning power by the Congress.

President Elect Barack Obama intends to nominate Eric Holder to be Attorney General, which has caused a re-examination of former President Clinton’s pardon of fugitive financier Marc Rich.

Today, former Attorney General William Barr under President George H.W. Bush, in an interview on MSNBC, stated that the power to pardon is in the Office of the President of the United States.

What President has the power to pardon?

What does this Constitution say about it?  Article II Section 2 Clause:  “The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when call into the actual Service of the United States; he may require the Opiniion, in writing, of the principal Officer in each of the executive Departments, upon any Subject relating to the Duties of their respective Offices, and he shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offenses against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment.”  

The students who have paid me to teach them the true meaning of the Constitution know that the Office of President of the United States is a different Office from the Office of President.  Freedom is not free, so they have willingly paid to learn the truth that will make them free.  For those reading this, who are not my students this is an opportunity to learn the inner workings of the Constitution.

Former Attorney General Barr says the power to pardon is in the President of the United States.  If that is so, where in the Constitution does it state that the Office of President of the United States is the same as the Office of President?
