Reclaim the Seven Aspects of Sovereignty and Take Back the American Mind.

RECLAIMING THE AMERICAN MIND

by Johnny Liberty

Dedicated to the thousands of pioneers who came before and contributed to the research and creation of this handbook.

Truth is Stranger Than Fiction

 “The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function.”

— F. Scott Fitzgerald

We the American People have been grossly deceived about our true and lawful sovereign American National OR “state” Citizenship.

This has occurred through an onslaught of public policy and practice, government lies, deception, and propaganda, public media and education, and bureaucratic threat, duress and coercion, and the manipulation of the political, economic and legal system since the Civil War.

“If the government is moving it's lips, they're lying.” 1

We the People have been stripped naked of our sovereignty and our basic, unalienable rights of self-determination guaranteed by the Declaration of Independence (1776), the American Revolution (1775--1781), Articles of Confederation (1781), and the Treaty of Paris with Great Britain (1783).

The limited authority and jurisdiction placed upon federal government via the Constitution for the united States (1789) and the Bill of Rights (1791) has been usurped and ignored for generations.

Unless We the People wake up from a long, deep sleep, these powerful instruments of American law, our protectors of freedom and liberty will be banished forever from our homeland.

“Americans may wake up one day soon, homeless in the land of their forefathers.” 2

We the People are caught in the crossfire of a global assault on the sovereignty of both Citizens and the Law of Nations.

The casualties of this assault are our freedoms, property rights, due process of the law, basic unalienable rights for all people, and our beloved country--the united states of America.

An “invisible” and secret war is being waged against the united states of America for the benefit of a elite aristocracy and consortium of international bankers bent on attaining global empire at the expense of the American people and all the Citizens of the world. 3

America is at risk of losing its cherished freedoms and becoming a tyrannical, totalitarian, high technology police state. Our government is arrogant with power and forgetful of its responsibility to serve the American people. The government has stepped up its continued assault upon the people through litigation, foreclosures, forfeitures of property and the so-called “war on crime and drugs.” The government is bankrupt politically, morally and economically, and has not been honest in disclosing the consequences of its spending policies and priorities. Thus We the People are on the brink of an economic and political disaster. We the American People are the political, economic

prisoners of a foreign, sovereign, invisible Power structure operating through corporate federal, State and local governments, the Federal Reserve Bank and its foreign principals, and domestic and foreign corporations. We the People have a gut feeling that something is terribly wrong, a discontent and anger that indicates the extent of the exploitation, domination, and control to which we are subject, yet are often at a loss to either articulate or comprehend what is in fact occurring. The nature of the oppression is mostly invisible, “legal,” and economic. We the People are being taxed to death and indebted into “economic slavery” by individuals and institutions that have no moral or lawful authority under the American system of law.4 We the American People have been systematically robbed and bankrupted by special interests, and public officials that profit immensely from political and legal systems put into place to serve their ends. Laws are passed “by the Power structure and for the Power structure.” We the American People are taxed without representation by federal, State and local governments that no longer serve our best interests. Instead, they perpetuate and protect their own unlimited growth, at our expense. Our military is presently under the command of foreign powers intent on creating a New World Order, a one-world government and world army through the militarization of the United Nations (UN). “A treaty signed by former President George Bush places the assessment and collection of all taxes, even local property taxes, under UN auspices and sets up an international enforcement corps and an international data bank.”

“It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress.”

— Mark Twain

We the People have been programmed, conditioned and educated to see, feel, think, and act socially and “politically correct.” Political correctness is social programming promulgated by the traditional Left--don't ask, don't speak, don't dissent. It corresponds perfectly with the religious fundamentalist programming of the traditional Right. Both are mind numbing, mind-controlling propaganda machines. This is in alignment with a global design and strategy that's so subtle, so invisible, yet so pervasive that very few of our best intellects have broken the veil. Our flag-waving, hollow patriotism often doesn't reflect the actual realities of America today as much as it worships the hollow, superficial and mythological symbols of our past. Most Americans still “believe” we're living in a “free” country under a “free enterprise” system. Most Americans still trust and expect big government to take care of them, and believe that the government is well meaning and good. Yet we all know there is no “free” lunch (especially the schoolchildren). We the People receive small fragments of crucial news and information from the mainstream media (1% facts), but have barely begun to comprehend American history, law, economics and politics as a whole system. Without the whole global picture, We the People are hopelessly enslaved. We must break through this veil of deception and lies. We must speak the truth whatever the cost. We must take effective actions in unison to effect change. We must create alternatives to the New World Order. We must come together as a new nation and rediscover America for the all the people, regardless of race, creed, sex, or color. This is our vision of rediscovering America. This is UnCommon Sense!

You will discover that the Federal Reserve Bank is a private, joint-stock trust, not part of the United States government. All allodial land and lawful “money” (i.e., gold/silver) in the united states of America has been “hypothecated” to the Federal Reserve Bank since 1913 as collateral and “payment” against an unpayable federal debt. Property, motor vehicles, birth certificates, national parks and forests, and the assets of all non-profit and for-profit corporations have been pledged as collateral against the federal debt — a debt that can never be paid off. You cannot tender “payment” of a debt with Federal Reserve Notes (FRNs), only with lawful “money.” The Federal Reserve Bank and its foreign principals/creditors control the federal United States government, and directs all legislative action and public policy through its lending and monetary policies. The U.S. Congress is simply a “trustee” for the continued bankruptcy of the United States government corporation. The IRS is a collection agency for the International Monetary Fund (IMF) collecting from a bankrupt Federal Reserve Bank (FRB). Your income tax does not go to the United States government, but to service your individual obligation toward the federal debt. Your income tax does not provide basic government services which are paid for through excise, sales and other taxes.

“It is incredible how as soon as a people becomes subject, it promptly falls into such complete forgetfulness of its freedom that it can hardly be roused to the point of regaining it, obeying so easily and willingly that one is led to say ...that this people has not so much lost its liberty as won its enslavement.”

— Etienne de la Boetie

In summary, the power of sovereignty is:

- Based on the inherent nature of the free individual;

- It is the source of authority from which all laws and governments arise;

- It is based on the action of the individual being supreme;

- It is a gift that you choose to give yourself.

“When a well-packaged web of lies has been sold gradually to the masses over generations, the truth will seem utterly preposterous and its speaker a raving lunatic.”

Dresden James

U.S. citizens cannot “own” true and lawful title to land unless you've updated the land patent and removed any encumbrances or liens as a American National OR sovereign “state” Citizen.

The United States government corporation has quit-claim deeded all the property in the united states of America to the foreign principles/creditors as collateral against the unpayable debt.

When you “purchased” your property or real estate, you received a “deed,” not an allodial title.

A “deed” only represents equitable or beneficial interest in a trust property “owned” by the State acting as a trustee.

Without an allodial title held in your sovereign capacity, banks loaning you so-called “money” can attach a lien on your property until it's “discharged” in full.

If you fail to pay the mortgage the bank will foreclose on the property. Even if it's paid in full with FRN's after thirty years, you still don't hold the true title, only possession in fee simple.

U.S. citizens do not “own” their “motor vehicles.” As trustee, the State holds the true title, and has legal “ownership” in the property.

You get a “Certificate of Title” that certifies that you are a “beneficial holder.” The legal “owner” has the right to require the “beneficial holder” to get it registered with State issued plates, have a State-issued driver's license and insurance.

In essence, you are renting the use of a “government-owned” vehicle. The legislative intent of the Motor Vehicle Code is to regulate the commercial operation of motor vehicles only.

There are hidden liens on your “person,” your property and your future productivity toward “discharging” the unpayable federal debt.

Most Americans are fundamentally bankrupt, and have not been paid real “money” for working in their entire lives. Ninety-two percent of all American's are bankrupt at age sixty-two.

Unless you get educated and protect what remains of your assets now, Americans will wake up, one day soon as Thomas Jefferson warned, shake their weary heads and wonder what the heck happened.

Homelessness and the proliferation of social, racial and political violence are advanced symptoms of undeclared State and federal bankruptcies.

We the People and our political leaders have unwittingly “sold out” our country, our freedoms and our children's future for privileges, benefits, temporary entitlements and the short-term “success” of a privileged few.

U.S. citizens are not “Citizens” at all, but subjects and property of the District of Columbia, residents and franchisees of the bankrupt federal United States government corporation organized under municipal law. You will discover that the Constitution for the united states of America and the Bill of Rights does not apply to “U.S. citizens.” U.S. citizens are subjects and property governed under “statutory,” Admiralty and Maritime law, Military and Martial law under the undisclosed presumption of an international contract. U.S. citizens have no constitutional protections or unalienable rights, only privileges and “rights” granted by the government.

Legal “persons,” born or naturalized in the federal United States were created exclusively by the 14th Amendment after the Civil War. The 14th Amendment was never lawfully ratified.

Your vote is purely advisory and does not directly elect, affect or create public law. Your vote obligates you to pay Municipal, County and State bonds through property taxes. If your vote ever really changed anything, it would've been illegal a long time ago.

The gold-fringed Admiralty and Military flag, not the American flag, flies in the President's oval office and in most of the so-called “courts” in this country.

U.S. citizens are legally “disabled,” “wards of the State,” considered incompetent children incapable of making their own decisions, acting judicially or in their sovereign capacity. We the People must reclaim our power of attorney to act judicially in our sovereign capacity, and stop the government from acting on our behalf without our consent.

We the People must reclaim the American system of law and restore our unalienable sovereign rights.

We the People have the unilateral power of declaration by affidavit and legal notice, the unlimited power and right to contract and to organize our affairs with little or no government involvement.

We the People have the power to form grand juries to prosecute public officials who are violating our unalienable or constitutionally-protected rights under “color of law” through Title 42, §§§1983, 1985, 1986 OR Title 18, §§241, 242 actions.

We the People must make our government accountable to the U.S. Constitution, the sovereignty of the people and the American system of common law.

You have forgotten what “country” you live in. The federal “United States” government is a foreign corporation with regards to the “united states of America,” not the country you live in or owe allegiance to. 7

We the People are sovereign, “state” Citizens and nationals under the supremacy of the state and federal constitutions. We the People unknowingly elected away our unalienable rights and property by becoming 14th Amendment, “U.S. citizens” under the jurisdiction of the federal “United States.”

Social security benefits and the income tax, with a few exceptions for foreign-earned income, are voluntary contracts made mandatory for federal government employees and U.S. citizens who receive benefits from the government.

We the People can lawfully reclaim our true, sovereign, American National OR “state” Citizenship and take back our government from those who would destroy our country for their own self-interest.

“I used to have a country but they sold it down the river.
Like a repossessed farm auctioned off to the highest bidder.”

Bruce Cockburn 8

Beyond Denial- Being Responsible

The greatest challenge in reclaiming our sovereign Citizenship is breaking the chains of denial and taking responsibility for freeing ourselves from mental, emotional and economic slavery. It takes courage to open our eyes and witness an “economic holocaust”9 of mass proportions and forge the appropriate, human response.

Independence Day

It takes an independent, thinking and compassionate human being to discriminate between “reality,” and the false images projected through lies, propaganda, advertising, distractions, and deception.

> REALITY EROSION-- the inability to discriminate between what is real and what is fiction.

Restoring Discrimination

We must extract and separate our individual moral conscience and intelligence from overwhelming, addictive, under-informed, commercial, public information, non-news media that has contaminated our ability to discriminate between what is real, and what is fiction.

This inability to discriminate, to make distinctions, and our often apparent indifference and apathy, is described as “reality erosion,” and it is accelerating on a daily basis.

Discrimination and integration are two inherent faculties of the human mind, essential for survival. We must learn to think for ourselves.10

“We suffer primarily not from our vices or our weaknesses, but from our illusions. We are haunted, not by reality, but by those images we have put in their place.”

Daniel Boorstin 11

Restoring Response-Ability

After generations of being educated and programmed for irresponsibility, to look after number one, to get mine, to do your own thing, the American people have surrendered virtue for vice, rights for privileges, long-term sustainability for short-term profits and pleasures. Without “response-ability” (i.e., the ability to respond), the American people will be hopelessly enslaved.12

Return to Virtue

Without a return to virtue, to ethics and morality evident in the natural law, the American people will self-destruct in a democratic tyranny of mob violence.

Just consider the brutality evident in the mass media and the glorification of victim-hood in the soap operas.

Even if we reach beyond denial, take response-ability and apply intelligent virtue, the immensity of the issues, concerns and problems presenting themselves simultaneously are paralyzing us into inaction, despite our having access to intelligent information, solutions and strategies. Ignorance is not bliss.

“If a problem portrayed ... appears to involve more effort or sacrifice than we can imagine, or if even maximum effort ... would fail to prevent the tragedy, we are tempted to sever the link between stimulus and emotional response.”

— Al Gore, Former Vice President of the United States 13

Mental Sovereignty Summary

In summary, mental sovereignty includes:

1. You have your own mind, your own thoughts, ideas and conclusions;

2. One function of the mind is for memory or storage;

3. Another function of the mind is for focusing thought and energy;

4. You must train your mind to focus both intention and attention;

5. You must learn to make distinctions in your own mind;

6. To embrace higher truths, our way of thinking must shift to embrace the paradox;

7. Mental sovereignty is about doing your own thinking and making your own choices;

8. Come up with an original idea in 30 days or less;

9. Defeat all mind control systems by being vigilant and perceptive;

10. Reconsider political correctness;

11. Free yourself from blind spots that keep the same old mental patterns operating;

12. Develop your mindset into a powerful attitude for achieving success in your life.

An Independent Press

Is there any doubt even the so-called “independent” free press is no longer a source of valid “truth” and honest opinion?

There is estimated less than a 1% factual base of news and information in the mainstream media. Most of it is hype, innuendo, entertainment and propaganda intended to distract us from reality and the truth.

Evening Snooze

The mainstream and alternative media is spoon-fed on government propaganda and public information through the public relations departments of the national, federal, State and local governments and transnational corporations. To think for ourselves, we must fast from both the mainstream and alternative media and obey this maxim.

NO GARBAGE IN — NO GARBAGE OUT

The Power structure and global elite controls all five big television networks, public broadcasting and cable networks including PBS and CNN.

Most Americans get 90% of their news, information and world view from the television.

What passes off as news these days is appalling to anyone with intelligence and insulting to those who don't.

Most reporters and their editors are too busy snooping into the private lives of public officials and celebrities to actually do any legitimate research or investigative reporting into the real issues.

Stealing Your Attention

There are serious issues that justly deserve more attention than President William Clinton's sex life, Senator Bob Packwood's diaries, O.J. Simpson's trial, Tanya Harding's escapades, this or that celebrities sex life, or any other irrelevant media spin that distracts us from the real issues and concerns. Most of the mainstream media, following in the path of the tabloids, focuses public attention on non-issues and directs the public political agenda towards the desired goals of the global elite. Most alternative media is too busy reacting to whatever the mainstream media is focusing on to ever notice what's really going on independently of the mainstream press and take initiative in creating the news.

NEWS = PROPAGANDA

Independent Press Investigative reporting and truth-saying in today's media climate is hard and dangerous work for a reporter or editor if you want to keep your job. Maintaining an independent, free press is essential though to the continued existence of a healthy constitutional republic.

Spinning the Issues

Public policy is shaped by the “image of the issue,” not by the “reality of the issue.” Public policy will be what the policy ought to appear like, not what actually solves the problem at hand.

Spin doctors, image-makers, and propagandists are the key policymaking posts in any government or corporate public relations department.

These spin doctors, and those behind the scenes who direct them, create public policy based on public opinion, then the legislators follow by writing the statutes. Lawmakers don't lead, they follow public opinion directed by the media.

The media even goes so far as to “create” (i.e., fabricate) the news to suit their political agenda. Watch the movie, Wag the Dog with Dustin Hoffman. It's a shocking possibility! 14

Abandoning the Ship of Freedom

The “independent” press as the guardians of “reality” has abandoned the ship of freedom. Journalism has deteriorated into slick entertainment and sensationalism, even by the vanguards of the media industry.

Often journalists and anchormen fan the flames of discontent by introducing violence, racism and disinformation into the community.

From my vantage point, citizenship is not meant to be a spectator sport orchestrated by the media.

The real “news” must never be confused with “entertainment.” The real “news” is not always what the media is currently directing your attention towards. Can you tell the difference between news and entertainment? If not, we're both in big trouble. 15

“There is no such thing at this date of the world's history in America as an independent press. You know it, and I know it. There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinion, and if you did, you know beforehand it would never appear in print.

I am paid weekly to keep my honest opinion out of the paper. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job...”

“The business of the journalist is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread.

You know it, and I know it, and what folly is this, toasting an independent press? We are the tools and the vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the Jumping Jacks. They pull the strings, and we dance.

Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes.”

John Swinden, Former Head of the New York Times16

Media Literacy and Internet Activism

Entertainment is the opiate of the American people along with sex, drugs, rock n' roll and religion.

The American media culture is the most pervasive and persuasive in the world today.

We the People have become addicted to the mass consumption of images, elevated above and invalidating reality and truth at every commercial break. Over one-sixth of the GNP is spent on marketing and advertising (i.e., propaganda).

Media Manipulation

Because the American people are terrified of cults, drug dealers, terrorists, crime, gangs, child and sexual abuse through the continual bombardment of the media, we are extremely susceptible to massive media manipulation in these areas.

Through the manufacturing of facts, evidence and the creation of artificial enemies, the media can easily frame up an individual or a group as a culprit while the mass consciousness prepares to lynch them without a trial.

Most people have no discernment and cannot tell the difference between hype or lies and substance or fact.

“We're entertaining ourselves to death under the gray sky.”

Bruce Cockburn

Framing the Facts with Lies

The mainstream media accuses, frames the facts and convicts innocent people daily with network broadcast innuendo and smear campaigns intent on discrediting, without trial, without indictment by a grand jury, without substantial evidence.

Even bold-faced lies suffice.

Worse still this is quickly becoming a standard practiced in the legal profession.

Discrediting the Source

Beware of the discrediting of legitimate sources of news, people and information. Look twice at the message and the messenger the media attempts to discredit.

The media hunger for shock therapy, sensational stories and movies-of-the week leads them into the business of lie making, fear mongering, demonizing and deadly deception. Beware. Always read and view between the lines of the message. In many cases, the media is the message.

Media Purpose

The media could be utilized to inform, educate, entertain, inspire or control.

More often than not, the media is utilized to advertise, control and harness the energy of the slave class, much like in The Matrix movie. The economic, consumer slaves keep them in power, and live to serve the needs and goals of the Power structure and the global elite.

We the People consume so that the Power structure and the global elite may live long and prosper.

Power structures and the global elite are energy controllers, vampires and leeches. These structures, institutions and people “need” to control, dominate, conquer, exploit and use others to “survive” at their desired “standard of living.”

Subverting and erasing the will of the people and implementing the directives of the Power structure and the global elite is the “only” job of a politician, the public school and the media.

Without will power, public attention can be directed like a cheap magicians trick to continue fostering the illusion.

The Power structure and the global elite through their stooge politicians use the media and money to manipulate public opinion, and incidentally, get elected time and time again. The media echoes their message loud and clear.

Restoring Media Literacy

What can we do?

First, we must withdraw consent and withdraw our attention from the television set and the daily news. We must restore our will power and begin to live deliberately.

Second, we must examine and withdraw our ignorance and beliefs, our indoctrination and conditioning and begin to think for ourselves and create original thoughts and ideas to create the reality we prefer.

Third, we can set-up and organize independent communications networks, news services and resource centers encrypted with PGP for privacy.

We must organize effectively at a global scale to counter the corporate governments eternal preparation for war and the media's assault upon the strained sensibilities of the American people.

The brainwashing, programming, propaganda machine waged against America and the rest of the world has been highly effective and very costly to the Power structure. It consumes a lot of energy and effort to keep the people fed twenty-four hours a day with lies and deceit.

Fourth, we can empower the entire free world to organize and network through the visionary use of the Internet, private telephone conferencing systems, shortwave radio, underground publications and media, and news services.

Organize communications structures, network people, resources, skills and information, and broadcast them widely.

Communications networking is our greatest wild card for stopping the encroachment of the New World Order and restoring freedom around the world.

The Internet is Born for Freedom

The Internet has already proven itself to be the fast track to freedom - from zero to light speed. There is no central hub and anarchy rules. Freedom of speech and expression is out of control. The Internet was born in 1969 with funding from the Pentagon to facilitate post-nuclear communications in the event of a nuclear blast. The World Wide Web <www> was born in 1992, just over ten years ago, when the first browser software was developed and given away for free.

There are presently hundreds of millions of users in the world. There's no longer any excuse for computer illiteracy.

Building a Communications Structure

From a credible source people respect and honor, word of mouth is still the most powerful media of all. Networking is the key to happiness and the key to organizing communications networks. Walk you talk. Share what you know.

Do not forget the human dimension of communication and the interaction of heart, mind and soul. Integrity is the key word. Thoughts, words and deeds must be in alignment for your truth to be communicated effectively.

Utilize all available communications media and resources, above and underground to spread the your message to all the people. “If you don't like the news, go out and make some of your own.”

Having your hands steadily focused on a video or digital camera or audio recorder may be your best protection against the New World Order.

They do not want the truth to see the light of day. Keep the cameras and tape recorders rolling whenever you confront the government or those who would steal your freedom, your rights and property.

The last thing the Power structure and the global elite wants, is for everybody to know the truth.

“The function of the media in the United States is to inculcate and defend the economic, social, and political agenda of privileged groups that dominate the domestic society and the state.”

Noam Chomsky, Manufacturing Consent 18

Censorship and Security Issues

When was the last time you had an intelligent, public conversation about a controversial subject without feeling attacked, judged and/or invalidated?

There are many censorship tactics being used to prevent opposing points of view from getting the opportunity to express themselves.

Mostly, We the People censor and police each other, denying free expression of ideas. This censorship mentality begins in our homes, families and schools.

Censorship might involve the outright denial of airtime or funding, time limits on debates, shouting matches, threats of litigation, limits on subject matter, a seven-second delay for live radio or television, public humiliation, discrediting or false accusations, etc.

Advertisers influence the media in a similar way, by conditioning their sponsorship upon the censorship of any negative reporting around their companies. Wonder why you haven't gotten any real news lately?

Censorship may secure the ears from hearing opinions and/or words that you have already prejudged as invalid or inappropriate, but it also prevents any possibility of dialoguing intelligent solutions and coalition building.

We paint ourselves into a corner with nowhere to go. Are we so insecure about our point of view that we must prevent others from expressing theirs?

The Wisdom of Insecurity

You cannot predict the future. You don't know when you're going to die. You feel insecure, because insecurity is the way of life. There is no security, not even in death.

The wisdom of insecurity is an Eastern concept that is beyond the comprehension of most Western minds.

We the People must get back to values that respect and honor all life, and our deepest, truest sense of human nature.

Not only are we disconnected from the Earth, but we've lost touch with our own humanity.

This may be the most difficult, and rewarding journey yet.

“Here will I be bold. If there's a power above us (And that there is, all nature cries aloud through all her works.) He must delight in virtue; And that which he delight's in must be happy.”

Benjamin Franklin

Mind control is not necessarily a formal “brainwashing” process like prisoners of war being brainwashed in the concentration camps, or like the CIA training assassins to do it's political dirty work, although that form of mind control happens routinely.

Mind control is any imposed system that suppresses the human will to think, act and feel independently of outside influences.

This broadens the scope of “mind control” to include all forms of manipulation of the human mind, whether subtle or coercive. Most of the human race lives in one mental prison or another. Here's how it works.20

Dogmas

History has shown the most effective way to control and shut down a human mind is through the introduction of rigid, inflexible “dogmas.”

Dogmas are political or religious beliefs that are inculcated and programmed into children from an early age through fear, guilt or abject terror.

This indoctrination occurs in the family systems, churches, schools and media — and in all cultures and societies.

Often it takes a strong commitment and years of therapy to deprogram from intensive dogmatic training (e.g., Catholic School).

“Fundamentalism” is the root of all dogma

— my way of thinking is the one and only “right” or “moral” way of thinking.

On a planet of gullible and pliable minds committed to dogmatic thinking, war is inevitable and conflict will flourish on all levels.

This chaos and confusion feeds directly into the hands of the global manipulators who divide and conquer by controlling all sides of the conflict, then introducing their agenda to solve the “problem.”

Thus their agenda is perpetuated regardless of who “wins” the war or prevails in the battle.

Peer Pressure

Mostly we police each other into conformity and blind obedience to rules and norms that are unquestioned, unchallenged through “peer pressure.”

The story is, “Either you believe the way we do or see things as we do, or we'll ostracize, humiliate and criticize you until you knuckle under or go away.”

Our parents, teachers, ministers, leaders and celebrities all do it. They set up “role models” that we emulate and imitate. Be like Mike! Ha. What about “Be like Me?” Who's encouraging that?

Persecution and Character Assassination

The media chimes into attacking and discrediting the character of anyone remotely departing from the status quo.

If you were ever a genius, scientist, inventor, healer, teacher or true visionary, you'll be able to relate to the numerous occasions where your fresh and innovative ideas were met with sizable resistance.

Thousands of people in America each year are “disappeared” for daring to challenge or expose the system for the lie and manipulation it really is.

Malicious Prosecution

This may be a malicious prosecution resulting in jail time, or being disappeared simply by being marginalized and alienated from friends, family and the public.

Those who maintain an independent “mind” despite “peer pressure” are further bludgeoned into conformity when daring to challenge “authority” or the agents of the power structure.

The Power structure might dispatch the police to serve a search warrant, confiscate property, allege a drug or terrorist offense, send a SWAT team, or incite an attack minded U.S. Attorney with a knack for malicious prosecution.

They must teach those who challenge authority a lesson about bucking the system. After all, “You can't fight City Hall!”

Political Assassinations

If you were ever an activist, whistleblower, reformist or political innovator, you can relate to the numerous persecutions of our leaders (e.g., John & Robert Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, Leonard Peltier, John F. Lennon).

Our graveyards are full of good people who were victimized by the system or put to death in some horrible war for a purpose they never understood or dared to ask.

Political Prisoners

Our prisons are full of such nonconformists whose only crime was to dare to challenge the authorities and the system.

Only 40% of our prison population are actually “criminals.”

Public Education as Mind Control

Public education is an institution of social programming and mind control to inculcate social and national values, prejudices and predispositions in our children at a young and impressionable age.

John Gatto's Dumbing Us Down (21) details the actual hidden agenda of public education spookily accurate. Control of public education is also a tenet of the Communist Manifesto.22

Public Media as Mind Control

The major daily newspapers, news services and radio/television stations are institutions of mind control twisting tiny facts into huge fictions to keep the mass mind preoccupied with irrelevance and false security (e.g., O.J. Simpson, Bill Clinton's extra-marital affairs, the War on Iraq).

That people still habitually pick up a newspaper or tune into a news channel expecting to get the “news” is a testimony to their effectiveness in mass hypnosis. We the People are in a trance. From that slumber, we are enslaved.

We are hypnotized into dullness. That the media is a propaganda machine to control our minds is not such a far stretch of the imagination considering the overt manipulation of our desires accomplished through advertising, infomercials, entertainment and the so-called “news.”

Why so many people still give their minds away every day is beyond me, especially since the truth has been shining brightly for sometime now. Mind control is not new information. The concept is being represented for broader distribution and reconsideration. Stop reading the evening news. Start thinking for yourself instead, and living in the light of your own design. 23

Economic Sovereignty

Summary In summary, economic sovereignty includes:

An economic system involves the exchange of goods and services;

You are responsible to be a producer in that system, not just a mere consumer;

It's not the money, but the circulation of money and the production of wealth that matters in a true economy;

Embrace the principles of prosperity consciousness;

Remember the principles and economics of free enterprise and circulation;

Attitudes and beliefs must be changed with knowledge, education and persistent hard work.

Achieve economic sovereignty.

With the surrender of the mind to external control, will power is soon to follow. With no mind or will power to individuate and discover one's true self, We the People become totally dependent upon the indoctrinated dogma and belief systems we were taught and conditioned.

Until we examine our lives and beliefs, challenge our indoctrination and institutionalized authority and inquire into the nature of universal principles and law, the status quo of the prison mentality and victim attitude will continue ad nauseum on this planet.

Isn't it time to liberate yourselves from mental slavery.

Safety and Security

The most basic root chakra of the human being desires to belong to a family and tribe for safety and security reasons.

The family and tribe have always been the center of human life. The only question that remains is what tribal system were you raised in, and how do you break free of the conditioning that stops us from individuating our own selves fully?

Until such awakening occurs, you and I are easily subject to manipulation and control by external forces and institutions.24

In addition to mind control and media manipulation, the family and tribe are under attack by the New World Order, the Power structure and the global elite.

In the modern societies of the West, it's evident that traditional family systems are breaking apart, further wounding people emotionally, dividing and alienating them from the root of their being.

The loss of the family and tribe has left most people vulnerable, without basic safety and security needs being met, further becoming dependent upon the State for sustenance and survival. This is a dangerous trend. In the Communist Manifesto, the breakdown of the family is essential to centralized control by the State.

Marriage License is a Three Party Contract with the State

The marriage license is a three-way contract with the State and is based on old property law. In the patriarchal society, the man owned his seed and the eggs of the females were considered property. If a man and a woman decided to get married, they needed the “consent” of the father who gave his daughter (i.e., property) away.

If the father didn't consent, they might elope, but without the consent of the father, the property (i.e., title) didn't convey.

Common Law Marriage

If you lived together for seven years and the father neither consented nor contested the marriage, then the couple would be legally married under the Common law. A Common law marriage is recognized in every American state republic.

State as Legal Parent

In the American legal system, the doctrine of parens patria confirms the State is the legal parent and the children produced from a State-licensed marriage are the property and chattel of the State.

Following from old property law, if you're chattel or the property of the State, then you need the consent of the State (i.e., the father) to get married (evidenced by the marriage license), and any property derived from the marriage (i.e., children) also belongs to the State.25

The goals of the New World Order, the Power structure and the global elite are one in the same with the Communist Manifesto. Read it and weep at the loss of your rights and property.

The breakdown of the family and tribe is in the best interests of the State seeking to expand it's power base.

State Parenting

When the family system is breaking down, the State becomes the new, “improved” parent.

The State imposes controls over the raising of the children through public education and public health agencies and departments of human resources.

Thus the State dominates the biological parent in influencing and controlling the child until they are of legal age.

The State decides what is taught in the public schools. The State decides what the child will learn and what career track they'll be on. The State decides what is appropriate social behavior, and what is politically correct. The State decides and defines abuse, and what is appropriate affection or discipline in the family.

All this power in the hands of the State further alienates the children from their biological parents who are left as nothing more than the custodians of State property.

Biological Parents are Powerless

Haven't you as a parent ever felt that your children were out of your hands? Read the “UN Convention on the Rights of the Child” and you'll get a sense of what's on the horizon for “parental rights in the near future.” 26

In traditional tribal systems where families and communities are too strongly bonded to be broken or replaced by the State, the parents can be indoctrinated by old-time religion, programmed by the educational system or influenced by the media to get behind the State's agenda and become the politically correct, socially acceptable manipulators of their children.

We the Children Become We the People

The result for the child is the same by different means - We the Children are taught to give our minds and power away to external authority and institutions.

We the Children give our power away and become slaves to the social and political manipulators, whether State or biological parents.

Independence, thinking and free will are suppressed regardless of whether or not it's a capitalist, socialist, communistic or so-called democratic society.

Hope for the Children

Our future hope lies in the establishment of sovereignty for all the people, beginning with spiritual and emotional sovereignty then extending into the political, economic and legal realms.

This is the ultimate challenge of our time

— to free enough people, young and open enough, to alter the pattern on the planet from negative (i.e., destructive) energy to positive (i.e., creative) energy.

The ultimate challenge is to live free as sovereign individuals or die slaves of the global manipulators!

The choice is yours.

Legal Aspect Summary

In summary, legal sovereignty includes:

1. A course of study to learn about your individual rights and how they are taken away through your ignorance of the law;

2. Choosing your Citizenship;

3. Understanding commercial, administrative and judicial remedies; 4. You have the right to do business in your jurisdiction of choice. 5. See also American & International Law

Truth is Neither Left Nor Right

The Right and Left political spectrum and all the bantering about Liberals and Conservatives, Capitalists, Communists, Socialists, Republicans and Democrats, is presently irrelevant to the entrenched institutions of the Power structure.

Polarized Mode of Thinking

Mode of Thinking Most of our thinking, and the resulting conflict, is caught in a polarized mode of black or white, right or left duality.

This endless and irrelevant debate plays solidly into the hands of the Power structure and the global elite by keeping people divided, thus conquered. It's the oldest game in the book.

You pit two opponents you want to control against each other and they can no longer see you controlling both sides of the game.

Like consenting to peer group pressure, we agree to play the divide and conquer game. We do it to ourselves and each other unconsciously if not deliberately.

The Power structure and the global elite are quite content to let people attack and kill each other instead of focusing attention on their escapades.

Plus it saves them the cost of the bullet! Wake up America!

Wake up world!

Unified Mode of Thinking

The truth is neither Right nor Left, Liberal nor Conservative, Black nor White.

The whole truth and nothing but the truth is a blending, a melting of the individual points of view into a paradox of reality, inclusive and comprehensive.

The truth is indeed much stranger than fiction.

Political Correctness

We're all familiar with the Christian, Islamic, conservative fundamentalism of the so-called Right.

Political correctness is the mind numbing, guilt-oriented, intellectual fundamentalism of the Left, liberal, socialist, and communist global elite, intent on destroying free thought, independent inquiry and true consensus-building.

Both are presently irrelevant in the pursuit of truth and the restoration of your sovereignty.

Be watchful of those who would encourage you to betray your friends, family and neighbors on behalf of the government.

Beware of D.A.R.E. programs, Neighborhood Watch and other police-oriented community programs co-opted to pry into your privacy.

This is part of a strategy for destroying public and community trust (e.g., Orwell's 1984 ).

 As I overheard recently on the campus of a major university, “In the sixties, it used to be Us vs. Them. Today, with the advent of political correctness, it's Us vs. Us.” 27

Let's stop fighting each other and focus on the real issues, the real problems, the real perpetrators.

We have seen the enemy, and it is us.”

Crime Wave on War Against the People

The supposed “crime wave” crashing over the American landscape is generated by media sensationalism, the failed economic policy of the federal government, and inept legislative priorities and directives by the foreign creditors of the United States (i.e., IMF).

Why do we build 150 large new prisons in 1995 when the serious crime rate is actually falling? How can it be that the perception of a “crime wave” is on the rise simultaneously? What is the hidden agenda here? Who is intended to fill those prisons if not serious criminals?

Boycott the Media

Stop supporting the media's attack on your sensibilities.

Boycott the television, unless you can watch with the utmost of discrimination and skepticism.

Stop believing what you hear, or what's projected at you without proving it out for yourself. Do your own thinking. Reject fundamentalist thinking of all kind, whether so-called Left or Right in origin.

The People of the Lie

Americans are presently the most controlled people in the world, supposedly living in a “free” country, yet they cannot see this.

According to M. Scott Peck, Americans are the “people-ofthe-lie,” who believe in the lie so wholeheartedly that we can no longer see, nor do we care to see, reality for what it is.17

“Reality erosion” is the most serious mental disability of our time — the inability to distinguish between what is real and what is imagined.28

This inner blindness combined with ignorance, fear, denial and irresponsibility results in crisis after crisis being created in our lives.

Once again, the truth is much stranger than fiction.

Surrendered Without Awareness

Most people on the streets of America have already surrendered their heart and soul, country and nation, body and labor to the foreign powers without hesitation, without thought, without awareness.

According to Jay Leno interviewing people on the street, many young people don't even know how many planets are in our solar system, let alone how the political, economic or legal systems actually work.

Many people, young and old, have never experienced any real “freedom” in their lives.

They are working all their lives for the illusion of an American dream, 92% of all Americans are bankrupt by the age of sixty-two.

Walk in the streets of America today.

You'll see a stressed-out, defeated and demoralized people, most who have already given up and resigned themselves to their miserable fate.

They have surrendered lock, stock and barrel, even though the first shot of a military occupation by foreign powers (e.g., United Nations troops) has yet to be fired (unless you include Waco, Ruby Ridge, Oklahoma City, 9/11 and numerous other raids on the American people).

Whatever happened to the bravado and will power of the American people?

We the People better summon some courage to face ourselves and wake up to smell the future.

Perhaps it'll take another major crisis for the wake up to occur (hopefully not a war, famine, plague or another designed economic collapse).

“If we keep going in the same direction, we're likely to end up where we're headed.”

Prevention is the best medicine. Educated action is the cure for apathy and indifference. 29

Political Aspect Summary

In summary, political sovereignty includes:

1. Forming a distinct political entity as a true nation under the law of nations, sovereign, independent and free;

2. Reading, studying and re-establishing our constitutions both state and federal, or compromising the freedoms and prosperity that we originally enjoyed for generations;

3. The foundation of a global republic.
