Our Constitution is a plan to build a limited government, guaranteeing that federal authorities never have the privilege of unlimited taxation, of invading other lands without cause, of removing the local traditions and cultures of its people, or of undermining their business and property.
Over the past 150 years, and the last 50 in particular, America's elect have eliminated the plain and common sense approach our forefathers established. Our Declaration of Independence reminds us that the people ever maintain the right to abolish or alter their form of government so as to assure their safety and happiness. James Madison concludes
It is therefore essential that such changes be instituted by some informal and unauthorized propositions, made by some patriotic and respectable citizen or number of citizens."
