It is the Constitution that the convention formed and the people ordained for our government. The Constitution provided for installing temporary administrations to administer, to execute the provisions of the Constitution, but it constituted no body of men as the government, it provided for placing men temporarily in office to execute the powers specified in the Constitution, and nothing more. The very preamble to the Constitution declares this. Our Constitution authorizes the federal adminsttrators to secure our God-given Rights in the following ways: It is to secure our rights to life and liberty by: •Military defense (Art. I, Sec. 8, cl. 11-16); •Laws against piracy and other felonies committed on the high seas (Art. I, Sec. 8, cl. 10); •PROTECTING US FROM INVASION (Illegal Aliens) (Art IV, Sec. 4); •Prosecuting traitors (Art III, Sec. 3); and •Restrictive immigration policies (Art. I, Sec. 9, cl. 1). It is to secure our property rights by: •Regulating trade & commerce so we can produce, sell & prosper (Art. I, Sec. 8, cl.3). The original intent of the interstate commerce clause is to prohibit States from levying tolls & taxes on articles of commerce as they are transported thru the States for buying & selling. •Establishing uniform weights & measures and a money system based on gold & silver (Art I, Sec. 8, cl. 5) – inflation via paper currency & fractional reserve lending is theft! •Punishing counterfeiters (Art I, Sec. 8, cl. 6); •Making bankruptcy laws to permit the orderly dissolution or reorganization of debtors’ estates with fair treatment of creditors (Art I, Sec 8, cl. 4); and •Issuing patents & copyrights to protect ownership of intellectual labors (Art I, Sec 8, cl 8) It is to secure our right to liberty by: •Laws against slavery (13th Amendment); •Providing fair trials in federal courts (4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th Amendments); and •Obeying the Constitution! This is how our federal Constitution implements The Founding Principle that the purpose of government is to secure the rights God gave us.
