An executive mansion was appropriate for the first executive of a long line of Presidents of the United States of America who had no official executive power. Article II Section 1 of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 had revised the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, to provide for a President with executive power, when nine States ratified “this Constitution.”
Washington was elected President of the United States of America on February 4, 1789, when the Presidential Electors voted unanimously for him, however, although everyone knew George Washington had been elected the Certificates of Vote still had to be transported to New York City to be unsealed and counted, as required by Article II Section 1 Clause 3 of the Constitution. The opening of the Certificates and the counting of the Vote took place on April 6, 1789 and on that date George Washington became President of the United States of America when he received all 69 Electoral Votes.

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 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA VERSUS THE STATE OF ARIZONA
Filed Under Articles of Confederation, COMMON LAW, CONSTITUTION, IMMIGRATION, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW | Leave a Comment
The United States of America is always the plaintiff in all federal cases, because the United States of America, the Confederacy, is the only government and certainly the only entity that can sue the State of Arizona.
None of the States of the second Union are aware of what my Students learn within minutes of getting their first written Lessons. The State of Arizona only has legislative power because the United States of America permits it to make laws for land it owns within the outer boundaries of Arizona the state of the first Union.
No one except my Students can understand the inconsistencies and contradictions involved in so-called “illegal immigration.” To become a Student, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

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 local Representative of the United States House of Representatives is required to know the law in the United States Code. Fortunately, to be free you just have to know the contents of volume 1.

ESTABLISHING YOUR INHABITANT STATUS IN THE STATE OF ARIZONA
Filed Under Articles of Confederation, CONSTITUTION, IMMIGRATION, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW | 1 Comment
The enactment in the State of Arizona of its own immigration law has opened up the opportunity of two centuries to re-instate the neglected Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.
The America legal profession has operated as if the Articles of Confederation were replaced, when the Constitution of September 17, 1787 was ratified by the State of New Hampshire on June 21, 1788. That replacement might have occurred on the land owned by the Confederacy, the United States of America, but the United States of America and the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 have never ceased to function.
The continued viability of the Articles of Confederation is important because the State of Arizona belongs to two Unions. The first Union is the United States of America established when Maryland becomes the thirteenth State to ratify the Articles on March 1, 1781. The second Union of the United States begins when the Constitution of September 17, 1787 is ratified by New Hampshire and the Constitution of the United States begins.
The Articles of Confederation are important to those who want to be free, because those Articles require the States of the first Union to entitle inhabitants to all the privileges and immunities of citizens without any of the burdens of citizenship.
As soon as the Arizona law goes into effect, everyone who is driving a vehicle without license plates elsewhere should start driving that vehicle in Arizona. You will be stopped by law enforcement and your papers will be demanded, which you will not have. Instead, you will hand the cop a copy of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 with Article IV highlighted.
Your refusal to provide a drivers license, registration and proof of citizenship will require your arrest for not being legally in the United States.
You are, of course, not in the United States you are in the United States of America, where the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 apply.

WHY THERE CAN BE NO FEDERAL IMMIGRATION REFORM
Filed Under Article II Section 1 Clause 8, Articles of Confederation, CONSTITUTION, Declaration of Independence, IMMIGRATION, LAW OF THE LAND, Oath of Office, PRESIDENTS | Leave a Comment
Immigration is a natural human activity. It is inherent in the human species to explore the earth, so written laws that limit human movement must be examined to determine any territorial limitations.
The identity of the United States of America has been tracked in these Posts from the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776 to the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777. The inhabitants of those United States of America are free to remain clear of government control or they may become citizens. Inhabitants who decide not to become citizens nonetheless are entitled to all the privileges and immunities of citizens.
The identity of the United States has also been tracked in these Posts from the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 to the Constitution of September 17, 1787. The first Constitution of the United States is the States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and part of Minnesota. As the United States of America acquires new territories this Constitution of the United States expands.
The other Constitution of the United States is first established on June 21, 1788, when New Hampshire becomes the ninth State to ratify the Constitution of September 17, 1787. When eleven States have ratified the Constitution of September 17, 1787, elections for the Senate and House of Representatives are held and Congress meets for the first time in New York City on March 4, 1789.
George Washington is elected February 4, 1789 to the Article II Section 1 office of President of the United States of America. On April 30, 1789, Washington takes the oral oath of office of President of the United States, the Article I Section 7 President, who must approve or object to Bills passed by the House of Representatives and Senate. George Washington hatched the plot to combine the executive power of the office of President of the United States of America with the legislative office of President of the United States, while presiding over the secret Constitutional Convention. His intentions were obvious to conflate the two offices to cause the country’s people to erroneous conclude that Bills passed by a Congress of the United States and approved by the President of the United States applied in the United States of America.
The truth is different. Federal law applies to the United States, the land owned by the United States of America. This is the United States defined in Title 8—Aliens and Nationality of the United States Code, Section 1101(38) “ The term ‘United States’, except as otherwise specifically herein provided, when used in a geographical sense, means the continental United States, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Virgin Islands of the United States.”
The Resolution of April 23, 1784, which the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 repealed and replaced made the lands owned by the United States of America part of the United States of America, the United States and subject to the administration of the President of the United States. The Bills passed by the Congress of the United States are limited to the United States, the lands owned by the United States of America. There can be no federal immigration reform, because immigrants are not entering the United States illegally.

IMMIGRATION REFORM, STATE’S RIGHTS AND FEDERALISM
Filed Under IMMIGRATION, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW, Martial Law, OBAMA | 1 Comment
Governor of the State of Arizona, Jan Brewer, did something that many Americans wish Barack Hussein Obama would do; she signed a bill that would require the police in the State of Arizona to ask people about their immigration status, if the officers have any reason to suspect that they are in the State of Arizona illegally.
The office of governor of the State of Arizona is patterned after the office of President of the United States. Bills passed by the State of Arizona legislature must be presented to the governor for her approval or objection. In the case of the bill she signed today, she approved, so she signed it. The bill is now law, but where is it law?
The belief that the States have rights is a fiction fostered by federalism for the purpose of extending legislative power beyond the land owned by the United States of America. The first Union, the United States of America, had no legislative power, because the States of that Union had none to give. Federalism got its first legislative power from King George III in the Treaty of Paris. The United States of America extended its legislative reach in the only way possible—land acquisition.
The federal courts will, of course, strike down the bill the Governor of the State of Arizona signed today, but don’t look for an honest explanation. The Congress of the United States and State of Arizona legislature make laws for the same land in Arizona, the land owned by the United States of America. The job of the federal courts is to keep the Congress of the United States free of competition.
There will never be real immigration reform until the people of America are the ones who determine who can be an Inhabitant under Article IV of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777. Right now federal immigration law prohibits entry only into the United States, because that is the limit of its territorial jurisdiction that also happens to be the limits of the State of Arizona’s legislative reach. There is a humane solution to all human problems and we are finding out why government does not provide the answers. “You shall know the truth,” should be an eleventh Commandment.

WHY THERE WILL ALWAYS BE AN ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION PROBLEM
Filed Under Adoption, Articles of Confederation, CONGRESS, CONSTITUTION, IMMIGRATION, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW, ORGANIC LAWS | Leave a Comment
The Constitution of the United States, which like a phoenix arose from the ashes of the un-adopted Constitution of September 17, 1787, is the source of legislation only for the territory owned by and ceded to the United States of America. The Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives is vested with all the legislative power and that power is limited to the territory owned by and ceded to the United States of America.
Wikipedia claims, but cannot prove the Constitution of the United States superceded the Articles of Confederation. The Wikipedia idea being that replacing the Articles of Confederation with no power to tax or make laws with a Constitution of the United States made it possible for the Congress of the United States to tax and make laws for the inhabitants of the states of the perpetual Union, the United States of America.
Citizens are people who are the subjects of government meaning they are the subjects of government laws. To overcome the problem of having a government among the newly freed people of America, the Articles of Confederation required the States to recognize political equality. The assurance of non-citizen equality is found in Article IV of the Articles of Confederation:
The better to secure and perpetuate mutual friendship and intercourse among the people of the different states in this union, the free inhabitants of each of these states, paupers, vagabonds and fugitives from Justice excepted, shall be entitled to all privileges and immunities of free citizens in the several states; and the people of each state shall have free ingress and regress to and from any other state, and shall enjoy therein all the privileges of trade and commerce, subject to the same duties, impositions and restrictions as the inhabitants thereof respectively, provided that such restriction shall not extend so far as to prevent the removal of property imported into any state, to any other state of which the Owner is an inhabitant; provided also that no imposition, duties or restriction shall be laid by any state, on the property of the united states, or either of them.
There is no proof that the Articles of Confederation have been replaced, repealed or superceded by the Constitution of the United States, the Constitution of September 17, 1787 or any other law the Organic Law being superior to all others.
So-called illegal immigrants are “free inhabitants” of the states of the perpetual Union and not the illegal aliens of the United States. The law is the law not what Lou Dobbs and Bill O’Reilly think it is. If you want to know what the law really is, you must enroll in the only law school that can teach you to be a legal genius.

PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA, “YOU LIE.” HERE LIES PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES GEORGE WASHINGTON DEATH ALONE CAN STILL THOSE LYING EYES
Filed Under Fourteenth Amendment, IMMIGRATION, OBAMA | Leave a Comment
Unlike Barack Obama, George Washington, apparently, was never caught telling a lie during his lifetime. His remains are buried at Mount Vernon. Parson Weems popularized the idea that George Washington couldn’t tell a lie. It would have been better if Washington had been caught telling some out and out lies. We would be saved from the infallibility of the Founding Father.
Washington’s sin was his amazing ability to practically mislead everyone in the country. As hero of the American Revolution and the first President of the United States, the American people believed he was leading them to a total fulfillment of the self-evident truths of the Declaration of Independence. Boy, were they wrong.
Thanks to George Washington there can be no accurate definition or proof of a citizen of the United States. No wonder Congressman Joe Wilson lost his cool.
