		<description><![CDATA[The greatest omission of the founders was the lack an enforcement amendment that empowered the States to maintain the federal government within the confines of the Constitution. If the States had had that oversight of the feds from the beginning, the Supreme Court could not have &quot;interpreted&quot; the Constitution to suit the ideologies or agendas of Presidents, appointed officials or the Congress contrary to the intent of the Framers. 
&#160; 
Any war that our young men fought after the War of 1812 can be shown to have been the result of Presidential scheming. Each and every after war after 1812 was the result of the presidential sociopathic demagogues whose fantasies, egos, ideologies, greed, dreams of grandeur or party agendas allowed them to draw America into the cauldron and slaughterhouse of war. An oversight amendment may have prevented all that. 
 
George Washington warned of entangling alliances that would suck the new nation into Europe&#039;s constant wars, fought between monarchical sociopaths always seeking some new territory or advantage over the European mad men or women of other royal houses.  
 
It is time for the people to demand that their state governments stand up to the federal government and rein in the insanity that rages in Washington. This amendment will re-establish state sovereignty and its proper function as intermediary between the national government and the citizens over whom the federal government should has no power, except as participants in disputes in interstate matters. Prior to the &quot;Civil War&quot; ( I prefer the more correct, War of Northern Aggression) and the Fourteenth Amendment we were citizen&#039;s of our states, not of the nation. 
 
Constitutional Commission Amendment 
&#160; 
Section 1.&#160; The Constitutional Commission shall settle questions presented by the several states concerning the constitutionality of measures or actions taken by the government of the United States. 
&#160; 
Section 2.&#160; The Constitutional Commission shall be composed of one Commissioner from each state, elected every second year by the people thereof from two candidates chosen by the state legislature, and the electors chosen by the state legislature, and the electors in each state shall have the qualifications requisite for the electors of the most numerous branch of the state legislature; each Commissioner shall have one vote.&#160; 
&#160; 
Section 3.&#160; No person except a natural born citizen shall be eligible for the office of Commissioner; nor shall any person be eligible for the office who shall not have attained the age of 35 years, and been 14 years a resident within the United States, and been nine years a resident of that state for which he shall be chosen.&#160; No person shall be elected to the office of Commissioner more than four times.&#160; 
&#160; 
Section 4.&#160; When vacancies happen by resignation, or otherwise, during the recess in the legislature of any state, the executive thereof may make temporary appointments until the next meeting of the legislature, which shall choose two candidates to present to the people to fill the vacancy.&#160; 
&#160; 
Section 5. The Constitutional Commission shall assemble it least once in every year, and such meeting shall begin at noon on the third day in January, unless it shall appoint a different day. The Constitutional Commission shall choose its Chairman and other officers. The Commission shall be the judge of the election returns and qualifications of its own members, and three-fourths of the Commissioners shall constitute a quorum to do business.&#160; The Commission may determine the rules of its proceedings.&#160; The commission shall keep a journal of the proceedings, and from time to time publish the same.&#160; 
&#160; 
Section 6.&#160; No Commissioner shall receive compensation for his services out of the Treasury of the United States.&#160; No Commissioner shall, during his time for which he was elected, be appointed to any civil office under the authority of the United States.&#160; 
&#160; 
Section 7.&#160; Whenever the Chairman of the Constitutional Commission shall receive petitions from one-fifth of the legislatures of the several states requesting a ruling on the constitutionality of a specific measure or action of the government of the United States, the Commission shall convene.&#160; The act or measure of the national government shall be void and no force if three-fourths of the Commissioners present vote against its constitutionality.&#160; 
&#160; 
Section 8. The Constitutional Commission shall not sit as a Convention as prescribed in Article V of the Constitution of the United States.&#160;

		<description><![CDATA[It is not a lot to ask to want to see about giving the 3rd branch of the federal government a chance to right the wrong of the other 2 branches before moving on to straight nullification of the offending act.   That is if you want to give the same Federal court the benefit of the doubt, a position admittedly not supported by their history or interest. 
  
That being said the State is of right not to wait and assert it rights and the rights of its people at any time before(preemptively), in-between, or after. ]]></description>
