This is true Michael Boldin, let us hope our little revolution here does not burn itself out before it comes to its fullest fruition.

As far as revolutions go, I believe that we’re already in one – as John Adams rightly put it, revolutions aren’t battles, they are a change of minds:

â€œThe Revolution was effected before the War commenced. The Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people; a change in their religious sentiments of their duties and obligations. This radical change in the principles, opinions, sentiments, and affections of the people, was the real American Revolution.â€

Obviously many states are begining to take this seriously. However my fears of my government continue because only if all 52 states do this and somehow all 52 Governors get together and stand as a United States will it make a difference. I do not see a state pulling support for the current government and making a difference unless they are the sacraficial lamb that starts the revolution to take our country back.

I have just found out about the movement by states to enforce the 10th amendment and I am thrilled. This is something every American can get behind in their states and actually feel like they are making a difference in reclaiming control of their lives. Better get with the program Ga.

Great point, Chuck. And the fact that the federal government was a product of the states makes it even more absurd that the federal government claims to have the final say on what its own power should be.

The Tenth Amendment shows the depth of wisdom our Founding Fathers had. The Federal Government was formed by consensus of the States, not the other way around.
