In Texas, this Saturday and Sunday, the national tour to prepare for
Continental Congress 2009 gets underway. The purpose
of the tour is to meet directly with groups of
people across the country to promote CC 2009. We
will discuss Why it has become necessary to
have a Continental Congress, How the
Continental Congress will work, What
Continental Congress 2009 is and what it is not, and
what might be its outcome, Where it will take
place and why that venue was chosen, and Who
the delegates might be.
We encourage everyone to do whatever they can to help promote the
upcoming national tour stops. Please do what you can
to arrange for local radio interviews in advance of
individual meetings. We will provided a sample local
event flyer as part of our next update.
We still need volunteers to help arrange for local
meeting venues along the planned promotional
meeting schedule. For more details and
current contact information for Bob Schulz please
see our
previous article.

Delegates
Three delegates from each state will assemble to discuss our
constitutional problems and to agree on a course of
action to cure the problem.
We are asking
the people in each State to nominate and then choose
up to three individuals to represent the People from
their state.
The Delegates
will assemble for at least two weeks in
Philadelphia.
The nominees
must have a proven passion for the Constitution as
authors, scholars, or activists. They should be of
established respectable character if not “pillars of
the community.”
The nominees
must be without felony convictions and preferably be
clear of problems with the IRS (we cannot afford to
make it easy for people to paint the delegates with
any kind of brush, such as “tax-protestors”).
The nominees
should be able to cover their expenses associated
with the undertaking, either on their own account or
with the assistance of the people from their state.
Most
importantly, the Delegates must understand that the
delegation’s primary objective will be settling on a
course of action to cure the problems we have with
our rogue Government. That course of action may well
be the withdrawal of support by the People from the
federal Government until their Grievances are
Redressed, coupled with the simultaneous submission
to the Governors and Legislatures of each of the 50
states of model statutes to revitalize the
well-regulated State Militias.
Next week we plan to release an on-line nomination
system to collect and organize delegate nominee
information. Central to that procedure will be the
requirement for nominees to submit brief statements
disclosing his/her professional experience &
educational background as well a personal statement
discussing his/her commitment and views regarding
our escalating constitutional crisis. Nominees will
also be asked to submit a relatively small “head and
shoulders” personal digital photograph.
Parties interested in potentially serving as
delegates to the Continental Congress 2009 should
begin to organize their thoughts along these lines
so we can post qualified nominees on the website
ASAP in early January. Potential nominees should
begin to consider and plan for the serious personal
commitment and possible resource expenditures
necessary to participate for the full duration of
these historic proceedings.
