Look again into European historical past for a troubling spectre of a political doctrine that has hijacked our nationwide governing.
The doctrine of “monarchical absolutism” asserted that kings derived their authority from God and couldn’t be held accountable for his or her actions. Thus, these governing have been “above” the ruled; they have been the “Elite” to which the on a regular basis legal guidelines didn’t apply; their existence was in a sphere completely totally different than any others. The governing loved privilege, wealth, conveniences, and latitudes that have been forbidden to the “dominated widespread man.”
It was this absolutism that prodded the thinker John Locke to put in writing his First Treatise of Civil Authorities (1689). He bluntly refuted biased political constructions.
It was opposition to this absolutism that spurred the phrase “We the individuals” within the preamble of the US Structure. This phrase is a lot greater than a motto on a mug; it is likely one of the most vital phrases in world historical past. Written over 200 years in the past, the phrase symbolizes the very basis of American politics and states the ability of residents to manipulate themselves.
These three phrases emphasize the vital significance of the American individuals and their function in invalidating absolute authorities management. This asserts that “We the Individuals” rule versus the Authorities’s function in having energy over the individuals.
“We The Individuals” affirms that the authorities of the US exists to serve its residents. The supremacy of the individuals via their elected representatives is acknowledged in Article I, which creates a Congress consisting of a Senate and a Home of Representatives of elected servants.
It’s via the elected representatives that Congress is to legislate in order to specific the need of the individuals! The elected officers ARE “servants” of the citizens. The elected officers ARE NOT the “rulers” deciding what their citizens “wants.”
Abraham Lincoln used this idea to honor the troopers that sacrificed their lives so as “that authorities of the individuals, by the individuals, for the individuals, shall not perish from the earth.” His phrases apply to all who die for the muse of governing by “We the Individuals.”
We’re a troubled nation IF the elected politicians imagine that voters can’t be trusted with the reality; that the citizens’s positions might be blithely shrugged off.
It’s important that the elected politicians respect the individuals and significantly observe the positions of the citizens who positioned them within the workplace. In the event that they refuse to take action then allow them to be gone!
This requires that the politician retains the constituency totally knowledgeable concerning votes and positions. The “backroom bargains,” the “blind votes,” the ballots forged with out public identification” are evidences of crafty ploys to deceive and destroy the governing system.
Now, this brings us to a disconcerting actuality in our current political governing in Washington, D.C.
We’re informed that on Wednesday, the Republican Senators will vote behind closed doorways and in a secret poll. They’re doing so WITHOUT the transparency that the citizens deserves. They’re doing so with the vanity of monarchical absolutism! They’re doing so…locked in secrecy, reveling in Elitism, and unconscionably claiming privilege!
Pay attention fastidiously to this excerpted interview: Right here is the angle that must be heard from the workplace of each United States Senator…
“The vote is held in secret. What’s the rationale for that…To start with Laura, nicely stated. They’re secret as a result of the chief chooses that. The chief that’s in workplace as we communicate and that’s Mitch McConnell. I’d slightly push the vote nearer to January the first anyway, however I’m not the chief…So I don’t know what’s going to occur, however I’m not voting for Tommy Tuberville. I’m voting for the state of Alabama. I’ve acquired hammered from everywhere in the state. Coach, we voted for change. We don’t want the identical sort of Senate that we’ve had prior to now. Let’s do one thing totally different. We received’t have one other likelihood if we don’t do one thing now. They’re precisely proper.”
America! The basis of your independence, the cornerstone of your Declaration of Independence, and the purpose for the heroic sacrifices of our warriors is being challenged!
Does your United States Senator respect and cling to “We the Individuals” of the State from which he/she was elected to signify?
It’s previous time for Congressional transparency to show the UNAmerican governing that disrespects our Structure!
