Since 1913 when the 17th amendment was ratified, which changed the way we select our US Senators, Which took away the states the power to control the Federal Government The Feds have been usurping power away from the states, with all of the bureaucrats they have put in place, example US Fish and Wild life a duplicate of the State fish and wild life and assumes power to control the states’ right to manage their own fish and wildlife. The problem was really caused by power hungry federal elected officials that is no longer held in check by the US Senators as they were before the 17th Amendment. Before the 17th amendment the Senate was appointed by the state legislatures and they answered to the state legislatures. In this way the states held power over the Feds since the Executive branch could make no appointments, treaties or declare war and etc. without the approval of the states, through the Senate, Congress could make no laws without the states approval through the senate, the courts only had jurisdiction as dictated by the states through the senate. Solution we must repeal the 17th amendment to restore states’ right and hold the feds in check in this way we will enforce the 10th amendment Gene Van Wagoner Former mayor Hurricane, Utah 620 S. 60 E Hurricane, Utah 84737 435-635-4173 or 435-313-2591 Gene Van Wagoner Says:

He was blantently dishonest about the health reform facts, He siad that the current bills did not address preventive. That is not true and our President has spoke of this fact many times. He also said that va care was not addressed and that is not true! Many times our President has spoken about the improvement of care for our Vets. The current system is not sustainable and I suggest that Mr. Henry and other GOP's get off their political pedastals and help to get health reform passed. And, stop lieing about the current proposals! I just saw a town meeting that Patrick Henry gace.

Will local law enforcement support the public, or will the local law enforcement support the military troops, & assist in picking up civilians that don't want to go along with the Feds new " takeover " as Barack Obama wants. Will the State of North Carolina stand behind citizens that elect to resist, even if deadly force is the only answer left. I simply do not intend to let anyone take me hostage, because of some proposed usurpations of my States Rights. What will happen if I decide to fight it with deadly force. Will The Great State of North Carolina stand behind me, or will it oppose my right to defend myself & my Family. Am I expected to lay down my arms, & surrender, or am I given the blessings of the State of North Carolina to defend myself, & my property, & family.

Going to take some work to get those state legislators on board though - but it's being done elsewhere, so it can be done in your state too! We strongly encourage you to join or even start a local group in support of the 10th amendment in your area. find some info here: <a href="http://grassroots.tenthamendmentcenter.com" rel="nofollow">http://grassroots.tenthamendmentcenter.com</a> James – we’ve been contacted by a lot of people from the great state of North Carolina who strongly support the constitution.
