THE ORIGINAL INTENT OF THE DELEGATES WHO MET IN A SECRET MEETING IN PHILADELPHIA ON MAY 25, 1787 UNDER THE DIRECTION OF GEORGE WASHINGTON
Filed Under Adoption, Article II Section 1 Clause 5, Article II Section 1 Clause 8, Articles of Confederation, CONSTITUTION, LEARNING THE LAW
Much has been written about the original intent of the Constitution of the United States yet little is known about what the Framers actually plotted in Philadelphia, because they really did meet in secret. By astute misdirection, Alexander Hamilton, James Madison and John Jay authors of the Federalist Papers, made the debate about the controversy of ratification instead of the precision of the constitutional language. Constitutional eligibility, for the first persons to fill the Offices of Senator and President, set March 1, 1790 as a start date for the Senate and July 4, 1790 for the Office of President. A constitutional government could not be instituted before March 1, 1790, so what government was created when George Washington took the oral oath of the Office of President of the United States on April 30, 1789?
When George Washington took the oral oath of Office of President of the United States, that was a second step to setting up an Article I Section 8 Clause 18 Government of the United States consisting of the federal territory within the first nine States to ratify “this Constitution,” and the States of the Northwest Territory, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and part of Minnesota, which were substantially government owned and had been made part of the United States of America by the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787.
If a constitution is to function properly, its language must be precise and the Constitution for the United States of America was exactly as written. The original intent of the secret Framers was to put into play no less than three Constitutions by creating two for two new governments and suggesting that the perpetual Union of the United States of America had somehow been replaced by one or both of the two Constitutions. It was the job of Hamilton, Madison and Jay to create the illusion that the Constitution of September 17, 1787 created only one government and that government would have three branches or departments: legislative, executive and judicial.
The Preamble which is not technically part of the Constitution refers to “this Constitution for the United States of America.” “This Constitution” is found in every Article of the Constitution dated: September 17, 1787. The frequent references to “this Constitution” was for the purpose of distinguishing the Constitution of September 17, 1787 from the constitution known as the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, which was fully ratified on March 1, 1781 and Constitution of the United States found in the oath of Office of the President of the United States.
On April 30, 1789, George Washington took this oath to become President of the United States: “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.”
It was the clear original intent of the Framers that George Washington become President of the United States rather than fill the Office of President by taking and subscribing the Article VI oath “to support this Constitution,” because the Article II Section 1 Clause 5 of the Constitution was written to delay the filling of the Office of President until after July 4, 1790. The fourteen Years residence within the United States delayed the lawful occupation of that Office until fourteen years after July 4, 1776, which would be July 4, 1790.
Eventually, all thirteen States ratified “this Constitution,” however ratification only bound the States. “This Constitution” is a written document, which requires a human subscription to a written oath. George Washington took an oral oath, which did not bind him to a written constitution. Washington upon taking an oral oath became an employee of the United States of America and President of the Government of the United States. This was the original intent of the Framers to create an oligarchy headed by an employee dictator.
The Framers meeting in secret intended from the beginning to create a government that would not be bound to obey a written constitution and they succeeded exceedingly well.
