CO: Election Day October 10
Citizens Rising in Defense of the Constitution States prepare for coming Continental Congress National Election Day October 10th Colorado, October 5, 2009 – Citizens fed up with constitutional violations causing devastation to the economy and the Nation, are stepping up to join constitutional activist across this great country to prepare for a modern-day Continental Congress to take place November 9-22, 2009 in St. Charles, Illinois. Continental Congress 2009 is not political or partisan and seeks to defend, not amend, the current Constitution. Many have asked, “What is the next appropriate step for the free people of America?” The constitutional answer is to hold this historic national assembly to inspire the critical mass necessary to restore constitutional governance. 153 citizen-nominated-and-elected Delegates – three from each state and Washington, D.C. -- will convene for two weeks to methodically and factually document constitutional abuses which have taken place over many years, across many administrations, every branch of government and both parties. Delegates will consider specific non-violent, legal civic actions to stop the wrong doings. All nominees have a “proven passion for the Constitution.” You can view the delegates’ profiles by visiting http://www.givemeliberty.org and clicking on Colorado. Delegates will make their own way to Illinois, but room and board will be covered by donations contributed by We The People Foundation members. Election Centers have been secured and Election Day will be held October 10, 2009. You can view all election centers by clicking on the CC2009: "WALK-IN" Election Locations link on your state’s home page. The election will be constitutionally valid using visible and transparent vote counting; an effort planner’s hope will eliminate the constitutionally invalid general electoral procedures currently in use. Where polling places are not available, a mail-in ballot process is being offered. The decision to convene CC2009 comes after fourteen years of filing Petitions for Redress with the federal government for repeated violations of the Constitution by We The People Foundation for Constitutional Education, a national 501 c3 non-profit with headquarters in New York. The Right to petition was put in the First Amendment by the Founding Fathers, who did not want Americans to ever again experience a situation where their individual rights or civil liberties were threatened. To date, this Right has never been recognized by the government nor defined in any court of law. Robert L. Schulz, Chairman of We The People Foundation says it must now be used to hold elected officials accountable to the rest of the Constitution “which will shift the power from the government back to The People where it belongs.” “Americans are waking up to the urgent need to stand strong for the Founding Principles and our Constitution, as every violation further devastates our economy and our way of life,” says Schulz. “We all desire the same outcome: restoration of our Nation. Continental Congress 2009 is the only strategy we see that is not political or partisan, does not rely on the electoral process, and can bring peaceful and legal solutions to our current situation.” We The People expect this effort to be the catalyst that brings the freedom-loving people of America together at this critical time.

I just found this site myself 30 minutes ago while looking at the site about the jobs created that was posted.
Who knows ??? and what difference does it make now commy. That's the past.I see this question being raised all the time on here and you have a valid point,but my guess is a lot of these people were not aware of the fact of what Bush was doing. I 'll be the first to admit I wasn't, until I started to read and listen to other points of view and do my own research. I used to think that the Patriot act was a good thing but the more I read the more I realized that it is a hudge violation of our rights. (Need I mention that Obama Re en stated) The fact of the matter is Commy that are rights are being taken away from us. Just 2 months ago when the G20 was in Pittsburgh people weren't even allowed to protest. We got Healthcare being rammed through without the bill even being read. It doesn't say anywhere in the constitution that the Gov. can force you to buy anything.
either this is a partisan ploy because a democrat is in power, and they're all afraid me being able to see a doctor is going to send us into the depths of socialism, or they are sincere, and actually worried about the constitution for a change. big difference. either I make fun of them and point out their hypocrisy or I respect their actions.
i knew the patriot act was a terrible idea from day one, it didn't take much digging.
but we didn't have a 24 hour anti bush channel to tell us what to do, maybe that's why they never heard about it.
I agree with you completely there. Bush wiped his ass with the Constitution, no doubt about it. I guess I just held out a shred of hope that Obama would bring the change he promised. I guess it just wasn't the change that many Americans hoped for.
exactly, i agree completelty.
but this is asking a question in vain because she will never answer it. ever.
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
I believe that their roots really stem from being anti-income tax, which, various Supreme Court Cases have ruled is in fact, Unconstitutional. This organization has challenged the IRS and the Federal Government several times over the legality of the income tax, particularly on people's labor, and have received no answers, and their movement started to gain momentum.
They are non-partisan, as they simply live and die by the black and white that is the supreme law of the land. There is reckless disregard for the rights and liberties by both "sides" in our government-- these people recognize that the only way to protect liberty and achieve equal rights for everyone is strict adherence to the law-- the law, which if adhered to, would not have allowed for most of the laws today that provide for so much confusion, gray area, and misinterpretation. If we don't like the Constitution, we should change it, through the mechanisms provided within the document itself.
I think this answers your question
"The decision to convene CC2009 comes after fourteen years of filing Petitions for Redress with the federal government for repeated violations of the Constitution by We The People Foundation for Constitutional Education, a national 501 c3 non-profit with headquarters in New York"
They were there for the past 14 years, which would include the Bush years, attempting to file these petitions and getting nowhere so I'm thinking that's why they decided to proceed in this fasion.
EDIT: Beated by Vinny
I'm with you...I just read the agenda of the conference and it told me nothing...I'm guess some don't want to pay taxes...well, they have options...

America's Independent Party is the third largest national political party in the United States based on voter registration :shock:
I'm going to curl up under my desk costanza style, and go back to sleep. hopefully when i wake up, it's all been just a dream, i never really read that, and they do not exist.
awful. just awful.
