DEMOCRACY AND THE PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVE

DEMOCRACY

THE PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVE AND THE RIGHT TO LEGISLATE

The Congress of Personal Representatives will have the total legislative power of the Congress of Elected Representatives. Whatever the Elected Congress can legislate - the Congress of Personal Representatives will be able to legislate with the following modifications.

FROM THE VIEWPOINT OF THE ELECTED CONGRESS

The Elected Congress will retain totally its present legislative power. However, no bill or executive order is law until it has stood before the will of the Congress of Personal Representatives. The Elected Congress cannot pass any law against the functioning or existence of The Congress of Personal Representative. Once it is set up, the existence and functioning of the Congress of Personal Representatives will be absolute from the viewpoint of the Elected Congress and cannot never be interfered with in any way.

FROM THE VIEWPOINT OF THE CONGRESS OF PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVES

The Personal Representative will have the Total and Complete Legislative Power on an equal basis with the Elected Congress with the following modifications:

1. The Congress of Personal Representatives will not be able to move any amendment to the Constitution. All amendments to the Constitution must first be passed by the Elected Congress. Upon passage, the amendment will go for approval to the Congress of Personal Representatives where only those who oppose the amendment vote against it. If 50% plus 1 of the Personal Representatives do not vote against the amendment then it goes for a vote to all 50 state legislatures. If 75% of the legislatures pass the amendment then it stands before all State Legislatures of Personal Representatives. If less then 25% of the Legislatures do not register a 50% plus 1 vote against the amendment then the Constitution will be amended.

2. The Personal Representative must be held to the highest democratic standards and principals. From the viewpoint of the Personal Representative the following basic democratic rights and freedoms will be absolute and cannot be interfered with in any way. The Personal Representative can enhance the above rights and freedoms but can never decrease or diminish these freedoms. They are absolute from his/her viewpoint.

(a) Freedom of speech.

(b) Freedom of press.

(d) Freedom of association.

(e) Freedom from discrimination.

(f) Freedom of expression.

(g) Equality before the law.

(h) Aboriginal treaty rights.

(I) Constitutional right to a basic standard of living.

(j) Unfair sharing of financial burden of country finances.

DEMOCRATIC PROCEDURE TO PASS BILLS INTO LAW

Within the above framework, the Congress of Personal Representatives will be able to pass any and all bills into law on an equal basis with the Elected Congress. Whatever bills the Elected Congress can legislate the Personal Representative will be able to legislate.

When a bill will be introduced by a Personal Representative into the Congress of Personal Representatives only those Personal Representatives who are in favor will vote for the bill. In order to become law, 50% plus 1 of Personal Representatives in 4 regions of the country must vote in favor of the bill.

Western States

Eastern States

Southern States

The bill must have nation wide support in the states. If 50% plus 1 of the Personal Representatives in any one region listed above do not vote in favor of the bill then it does not become law. Upon passage, the bill is sent to the Elected Congress to be immediately implemented.

CONGRESSIONAL PROCEDURE

A group of Personal Representatives will formulate a bill for presentation to the Congress of Personal Representatives. For the bill to receive First Reading, 5% of the total Congress must signify their support for the bill. By doing so they all become sponsors of the bill. Once the preliminary 5% support is obtained the bill must be sent to the Supreme Court for a constitutional ruling. If the bill is declared constitutional then it is sent to the states for their approval. There will be a 6 month to 1 year period in which 50% plus 1 of each of the state regions must vote in favor of the bill for it to become law. If the bill does not receive the required support then it is removed and cannot be reintroduced into the Congress for another 5 years.

Again, only those Personal Representatives who support the bill vote for the bill. All other Personal Representatives who do not support the bill or don't care about the bill etc. etc. are not required to participate.

Although young people under the age of 18 are not members of the Congress of Personal Representatives, they still will have the right from birth to propose legislation both federally and provincially for their elder Personal Representatives to vote on. Indeed, upon their birth each American will receive not only their SSN number but also an E-mail address which will designate for life their seat in the Congress of Personal Representatives.

DEMOCRACY IN ACTION

There are two bills that will have to be immediately implemented by the Elected Congress. The first will be the establishment of the Congress of Personal Representative Federally and Legislatures of Personal Representatives in their entirety with the power of approval of any and all bills and any and all executive orders passed by the Congress / Legislatures and the right to legislate bills into law both Federally and in each state.

The very first bill that the Elected Congress must send to be approved by the Congress of Personal Representatives will be a bill for the Personal Representative to approve into law ALL BILLS AND EXECUTIVE ORDERS PASSED BY ALL FEDERAL AND STATE GOVERNMENTS SINCE 1773 giving them the full force of law both constitutionally and legally. At present none of these bills or executive orders is law.

VOTING PROCEDURE
