If I were to run for Congress, I would only serve one term, (government should be service, not a career). I would represent the people, NOT a political party or the Wall Street bankers. All of my votes in the House would support individual liberty and the Constitution.
While all of the other Congressmen and women would be busy spending a large portion of their time scrambling for donations to get re-elected, I would use all of my time to honor my oath and always remember to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution."
In addition, I would;
- Run on the ticket representing the Constitution Party.
- Be a strong advocate for enforcing the Tenth Amendment
- Move to strictly enforce the Bill of Rights.
- Oppose the Redistribution of Wealth or any legislative action that promotes socialism and socialist government run redistribution programs.
- Vote to repeal unconstitutional laws and de-fund all of the unauthorized Regulatory Agencies.
- Propose the abolition of the Federal Reserve and Fractional Reserve Banking.
- Seek to reduce the size of Congressional Districts to the 30,000 mandated in Article I ,Section 2, Clause 3.
- Only vote to "pay the nation's debts, provide for the common defense and promote the general welfare."
- Propose legislation; that would end the federal income tax on both individuals and corporations.
- Propose legislation to sell government assets in order to fund the federal government. Funding the Government without Taxes.
- Evaluate all proposed legislation and reject any potential legislation not enumerated in Article I, Section 8. All powers not delegated to Congress by the Constitution that are not prohibited to the states are reserved to the states and to the people.
- Work to prevent the abuse of power by the President by repealing unconstitutional Executive Orders and prevent the wars of aggression by refusing to vote to fund unconstitutional military action.
- Hold the Supreme Court Justices accountable for operating outside of their Constitutional jurisdiction proposing the impeachment of justices that fail to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution.
- Propose legislation that would end Pensions for government employees paid for with taxpayer dollars. Government employees should have the same opportunity as everyone else to participate in self funded pension plans
- Seek to have Congressmen indicted for violating their oath of office.
- Restore the Senate to a republican form of government as required in Article 2 Section 1, wherein; "The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, chosen by the Legislatures thereof..." , by strictly invoking the protections in Article V, Clause 1, wherein; "...no State, without its Consent shall be deprived of its Equal Suffrage in the Senate."
- Only accept donations of $100 or less from individuals only. I would also ask my supporters to use the power of their influence to promote my candidacy. I believe that we need to take the money out of politics.
- Expose the financial elite and their use of lawyers, lobbyists and politicians to exploit the people in order to benefit themselves at our expense.
Also I would like to point out that I would not necessarily just be running for the purpose of trying to win. My goal would also be to educate the voters and my political opponents on the importance of adhering to the Constitution and the Laws of Nature and Nature's God.

I would like to invite someone in every Congressional District to run for Congress with my platform.
The platform is perfect. You are HIRED!
Tell me! I tried to send it to fakebook and it went into the ozone, I suppose!
I would like to see the 16th Amendment REPEALED! Perhaps, I misjudged you, Mr. Robin.
I hear a lot about the 17th, which is very ambiguous, but no-one attacks the 16th... The very worst!
I suggest you check the records Fred,
First of all, Bill Benson covered this subject quite extensively in his book, "The Law That Never Was". Also, we have a folder dedicated to examining all of the amendments to the Constitution, the 16th notwithstanding. Here is a LINK to one of them.
I suggest you simple check out the whole folder.
Thank you, Morton. I will definitely check that out. I have never understood how "Asleep at the wheel" our nation must have been in 1913.
Actually Frederick,
There was plenty of opposition to this administration's blatant violations of common sense and the Constitution.
Here's the truth about a couple of the events that occurred in 1913. The 16th Amendment was declared ratified on Feb 3rd, 1913 by a lame duck Secretary of State Philander Chase Knox. The incoming SOS, Williams Jennings Bryan, (appointed Mar. 5th, 1913), then declared the unconstitutional 17th Amendment ratified on Apr. 8th, 1913.
Here's a little bit on W.J.B.
Bryan won election to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1890 and served until 1895, championing Populist causes such as the free coinage of silver, national income tax, (16th Amendment), and direct election of Senators, (17th Amendment).
Then, on April 14th, that very same year, the "unsinkable" Titanic went down with John Astor and a couple of his rich friends on it. See the dates? Curious isn't it? The timeline is extremely suspect if you ask me. Why?
Because, it is claimed that the three were on their way to America to mount serious opposition to the "Aldridge Plan" aka The Federal Reserve Act. This Act was jammed through final approvals on Dec. 23rd, 1913. Another interesting date, don't you think?
You see, these actions were accomplished with a great amount of secrecy and corruption at the highest levels, complete with Mafia-like tactics.
We did not have our head buried in the sand. We were hornswaggled, bamboozled, blindsided. Lied to!
