I. INTRODUCTION

DEFINITION

The Articles Of Confederation were the original governing document of the United States of America. In this article, we will call them “the Articles”.

The Articles are very important because I am told they were clearer and better than the US Constitution, which replaced it. The idea that the Articles did not work is completely false.

The true story of the Articles is a sad one to tell, but I am told that the following story is true and needs to be told.

THE NAME OF THE DOCUMENT

I am told the name is not correct. The correct name was The Articles, and at times they were called The Articles Of Formation.

I am told the name Articles is used because it is a traditional way to present a legal entity. For example, every corporation in many nations begins with the Articles, often called the Articles of Incorporation for a company. I am told the word Articles, as used here, means a short summary.

The false name – articles of confederation – is a lie that confuses people because the Southern states during the Civil War called their group the confederation. I am told the American founders never used that term.

The word Constitution, the name of the document that replaced the Articles, is also completely false and was never used by the American founders. We use it in our writing, at times, because that is the name of the document.

The Bylaws. Organizations often also have bylaws (also sometimes spelled by-laws). These are a set of rules and procedures of the organization. Their order often follows the order of the Articles of the organization.

I am told the American founders wrote a set of Bylaws Of The United States. This is a standard method. These were destroyed around 1789, along with the real Articles of Formation of the United States. They were destroyed by the aliens, thugs, rogues or satans.

We are left with just the shorter US Constitution and no bylaws. This has led to great confusion and corruption.

The Board Of Directors. Most organizations have a Board of Directors. I am told the founders of America declared that the Board Of Directors of America are the Citizens of America. I am told this was written in the Articles of Formation of America.

The Officers. Most all organizations have officers. For example, a standard corporation has a president, vice president, secretary and treasurer.

The American founders also had officers for the new nation. They are:

- The president and vice president in the executive branch of government.

- The judges or justices of the Supreme Court in the judicial branch of government

- Two sets of officers, the the senators and representatives, in the legislative branch of the government.

The Bylaws Of The United States had plenty of rules for all of them.

The Oath Of Office. All officers of the new nation must swear a solemn oath of office that they will uphold and support the laws of the United States. They must put their right hand on a Bible when they do this. This is intended as a very solemn ceremony that has been largely ignored today.

In fact, violating the oath of office, which is common today, is a serious crime, possibly punishable by death.

II. THE CONTEXT OF THE ARTICLES AND THE CONSTITUTION

The context of the Articles and the Constitution were left out of the documents. Some were and are very, very angry about this because it has caused endless confusion and mistakes. So here it is:

1. The Bible was the basis for the American society. This was a new concept. It was not exactly true of England because the king and the church did not follow the laws given to the people, who were called subjects. However, the law for the commoners or common law was basically based upon Biblical Law. The most basic was the Ten Commandments of Moses and the Golden Rule.

This also includes the covenant with God found in the Old Bible. This is a higher level of contract law.

2. All societies are a social contract. This was an old idea, but the founders wanted it made clear. The Frenchman, Rousseau wrote about it and the founders loved his writing.

The founders wanted people to know they entered a contract to live in America and if they did not want to sign up, they were free to leave. Only those who signed the contract were to be allowed.

The Articles, and later the Constitution, were to be in the form of a contract with each person in America – signed, dated, copies made for your records, and notarized by a public notary.

3. America would not start a completely new legal system. This would take possibly 1000 years and is not practical or wise. Instead, America adopted the common law of England except for the following:

a. There would be only one legal system for everyone to follow, unlike England which has three separate systems.

b. Anything having to do with a royalty class or king is out.

c. Gold and only gold will be the money.

d. The Citizens are the sovereigns and are not subjects and not owned by others. This means a shared sovereignty system. This means Citizens have rights and can do mostly as they wish as long as they do not infringe upon the rights of others.

e. There would be Citizen-government, not a king or queen and not a royal class or aristocracy. This means there would be elections. There is a right for certain ones to choose the government. Not all can be electors because it is not practical. For example, at that time, many people knew that most women had been raped and beaten, and were slaves of the rogues or satans. There would also be a right to impeach leaders and a right to a recall election.

f. There would be two legislative houses, or houses of Congress. However, they would not be based upon social grouping, as was the case in England. They would be baed upon the states and their relative size and population.

g. There would be separation of powers in as many ways as possible. This means ways to avoid too much concentration of government power in the hands of one or a small group of people. This is to prevent another monarchy under a different name.

Two examples of separation of power are:1) giving more power to the colonies, which are now to be called the states. 2) Dividing government power into three co-equal branches – the legislative, judicial and executive branches. 3) different courts with an appeal process 4) different jurisdictions, possibly.

h. There is a right to contract within the main covenant contract and the main American contract. This also implies that there is a right not to contract within the main American contract.

i. There is a right to work. This means no restrictions on work such as occupational licenses.

j. There is a right to own and use property free and clear. This means no interference by any government.

k. Many legal cases would be decided by a jury of Citizens, not judges. The jury has the right to decide innocence or guilt AND to nullify the law. Judges are to be elected or appointed, but may not be just anyone. They must pass an examination to test their knowledge.

l. Banking is all private. There would be no central or government bank.

III. TWISTED HISTORY

I am told the history we are taught regarding the Articles and the Constitution is not quite right. This may sound outrageous and impossible, but we know that the aliens or thugs are quite capable of altering documents, letters and more.

Origin of the Articles. I am told the Articles were conceived during the American Revolutionary War. They were completed and approved by all the states in 1777.

Role of George and Martha Washington. George and Martha Washington were central figures in the founding of America. George Washington is completely misrepresented in a disgusting way in most books and website about the founding of America. We intend to correct the record.

Mr. Washington started out as a surveyor, a common occupation at that time. Surveyors helped people choose property and helped set the boundaries using equipment that is not that different from that used today.

When the French And Indian War broke out in 1754, Mr. Washington signed up with the British to be a soldier. The British were victorious against the French, not defeated as many books say.

Mr. Washington learned a lot about government from his time in the British army. He also learned a lot about conducting warfare. In fact, he became an excellent officer in the British army.

However, he was also a deeply religious man. He believed that America needed to be a religious nation, which it was not under British rule.

Marriage to Martha Dandridge. In 1759, George Washington married Martha Dandridge Custis. I am told the following details come from several souls who knew Martha well.

Martha was quite extraordinary. She was born into a poor Hebrew family and grew up on a small farm. She married a wealthy businessman and had four children, but two died very young. Soon after, her first husband also died. She took over running a large farm.

When she met George Washington, then a British army Colonel, Martha was 26 years old. She was deeply religious and kept a kosher home during the couple's entire life. She prayed all the time. Living as close to God as possible was primary in her life. She firmly believed in love and made sure her marriage was always loving.

Besides raising her children, women at that time made clothing and had to take care of many chores at home. She inherited a large farm from her dead husband's family. She had to learn all about raising cows, horses, chicken and geese. She also became an expert at growing many food crops.

Her farm became a major agricultural center that supplied Virginia and the British with healthful food. When she married George Washington, she also took over running his family's farm while he was away in the Revolutionary War.

Slavery. George Washington inherited about 20 black slaves. They lived close to the main house and were treated as family members. If one wished to leave, Martha always let them go and gave them money to help them on their way.

On many occasions, the opposite occurred. Slaves at other homes heard how she and George treated their slaves and asked to join them. All but once they agreed. Once there so many arrived at once they could not accommodate them all. Martha and George often had sabbath dinner with the slaves and Martha liked to tell them all about the Hebrew religion.

The Washington home was also part of the underground railway system. This means they sheltered black people who wanted to move to the North to get away from the slavery system.

The Revolution. As time passed, George and Martha Washington and many others became angry and discouraged with the British treatment of America and Americans. As a result, when the Revolutionary War started in 1776, Mr. Washington signed up.

His skills were quickly recognized and he was appointed a general in the Continental or American army. He was not the only general, however.

Unlike what one reads on many websites, he fought bravely and won many battles. This is well-known history. He was not in any way a “loser”. He was brilliant, courageous, kind, generous, and an all-around excellent man.

Slavery. Slavery was part of the British colonial system in Virginia at the time Washington lived. His family had a few of them. He treated them very well, made sure they learned to read and other skills, and often let them go if they wanted to be free. Slavery in America was not like slavery in many other nations. It was much more humane. However, that is a subject for a separate article.

The electors. America is supposed to have electors, not voters! To vote means to give your opinion. The electors were a special group of Americans who met certain requirements of age, gender, land ownership and knowledge. It was felt that this was the only way to have fair elections. Abandoning this system is an important reason for the decline of America starting in the 20th century.

I am told he resigned in 1787, a tired and somewhat disappointed man. There were many problems in the new nation. There was little money and the British kept attacking American ships in violation of the Treaty of Paris.

However, the worst problems were many murders and rapes by the alien group some call the thugs, crap, rogues or satans. They hated the new nation and its principles of limited government, individual rights, the rule of law, innocent until proven guilty, separation of powers, and self-government. They did all they could to destroy the nation, as they still do today.

The Constitutional Convention. Washington survived his presidency. However, soon afterward the thugs called a “convention” to discuss replacing the Articles of Confederation, which they did not like at all. They especially did not like the discussions about citizenship and the section about gold in the Articles.

The Constitutional Convention was entirely phony. Few people attended, unlike what is written in the history books and websites. Washington did not attend and would have nothing to do with it.

The new US Constitution was never properly ratified. It was just rammed through and suddenly became law. Washington and a number of others petitioned the government to return to the Articles, but this did not occur.

One day, a man came to Washington's home and told him he must stop speaking out against the Constitution. Washington told him it was his duty to speak freely. The man pulled out an advanced laser weapon and shot Washington to death. I am told the history books lie when they say Washington caught a cold and died.

The thugs destroyed all true copies of the Articles of Confederation. The only version of the Articles of Confederation we have is what is called the Dickinson draft in the National Archives. I am told it is nothing like the real Articles.

IV. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE ARTICLES OF CONFEDERATION AND THE CONSTITUTION

WARNING: What follows has been reconstructed from talking with souls who were present on earth at that time. That is all we have. If you have a copy of the original Articles, we would love to see it.

I am told The Articles were somewhat longer than the Constitution. It had more safeguards for liberty. I am told The Articles worked excellently. The Constitution has fewer safeguards, is shorter, and explains things less well.

For each topic below, we will give an example of how the Articles differed from the current Constitution.

Citizenship. This was handled very differently. I am told that it was not a State Citizenship. It was a national Citizenship.

To be a legal contract, each person needs to agree to the contract. I am told that the original system was that when one reached the age of 18, one would apply for Citizenship.

One would receive a copy of the Articles and Bylaws and told to sign it if they agree. One also had to swear an oath of allegiance to the nation and what is stands for.

One also needed to pass a short test to see if one understands the basic legal concepts that underly this nation. We discuss some of these below.

If one did not pass the test after three tries, or would not take the test or the oath, then one was told to leave the United States. The person was given one month to leave. Then police arrived, hand-cuffed the person and put him or her on a ship bound for Europe. There was an exception for very mentally disabled people.

Banishment. This method is called banishment. It is an older way of dealing with improper behavior that is far less expensive and less dangerous than putting people through trials and locking people in jails. The nation was set up according to certain principles. If one does not like them or cannot adhere to them, one must leave.

Certain major crimes, when proven in court, also required banishment. These were murder, rape, battery, poisoning and a few others. Other crimes were handled the same way they are handled today.

The Supreme Court. All justices were be men and they were not to be in office for life.

Example: If a Supreme Court justice violates his oath of office to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States, he can be replaced easily.

Role of Congress. In the Articles, Congress had only one role with limited authority over the states. Its jobs are listed in Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution and were basically the same in the Articles. However, there was no “general welfare” clause. This clause has been a back door way to allow Congress to do anything it wishes.

The new Constitution gave Congress two roles – limited authority over the states and complete power over the territories and possessions.

Giving Congress a dual role was a deliberate attempt to confuse people and thereby to drastically increase the power of the central government. This has caused severe confusion and terrible abuse of power by the Congress!

Today most people believe the lie that the Congress has complete authority over the 50 states that it does not have.

Example. If you look carefully at the agency laws such as that of the US Food And Drug Administration (FDA), you will learn that the law only applies in the territories and possessions of the United States. This is because the Congress does not have the power to regulate food and drugs within the 50 states.

We know this sounds incredible, but it is true and it is explained in some books such as Good-Bye April 15 by Boston T. Party.

The truth is that all 47 or so American national government agencies are wholly illegal. Yet today they make over 99% of the “laws” in America. The word laws is in quotes because these agencies make regulations, but they have the force of law. This is all illegal.

Laws are supposed to be made by legislatures, not by agencies. When agencies make regulations that are treated as laws, they often violate the right to work, the right to contract, and four critical American legal doctrines:

1. Jurisdiction. This doctrine states that all laws apply only to specific people and specific location(s) that are detailed in the law or its context. In the case of the American agency laws such as FDA and IRS, they only apply in the territories and possessions of the United States, and do not apply in the 50 states.

We know this because the powers delegated to the Congress are explained in the US Constitution. All the American national government agencies violate the principle of jurisdiction every day because judges and others presume the agencies have jurisdiction over the 50 states, which is not true.

2. Separation of powers. This is the idea that one branch of government (legislative) should make the laws, another branch (executive) should carry out and enforce the laws, and the third branch (judicial) should judge the laws.

This legal doctrine distributes government power and protects liberty. However, the agencies legislate, execute and judge the regulations, thus negating this important legal doctrine.

3. Innocent until proven guilty. This is a basic tenet of American law. It means that if one is accused of a crime, the accuser must prove guilt in a court of law. The agency in present-day violates this critical principle of law.

Today, businesses and individuals are assumed guilty of violating agency regulations unless and until they can prove their innocence in illegal “administrative courts” set up by the agencies. These administrative courts are not part of the official legal American court system.

4. Delegated powers. This is the idea that all power resides with the Citizens of the United States. It is a shared sovereignty.

This is the opposite of most nations! In these nations, power and authority reside in the government, not in the people. The government is sovereign, not the people.

The US national and state constitutions include provisions to delegate, meaning to shift, a few powers to the central government and a few to the state and local governments.

There is no provision in the national Constitution to delegate to the agencies the power they have today within the 50 states. Their absolute power only applies to the territories and possessions of the United States. In the Constitution, Congress was not given such power to delegate within the 50 states.

Money. In the Articles, gold is the currency of the United States. There was also a warning to the people to watch the price of gold. If the price of gold started to rise, it means that something is wrong in the government. The discussion of gold was one of the best parts of the Articles.

In the new Constitution, this discussion was removed and replaced by the erroneous statement that both gold and silver are the currency of the United States.

In both documents, Congress was given the power to coin the money and fix the value of it. The establishment of the Federal Reserve, a private company that controls American money, is wholly illegal.

Elections. The subject of elections and electors was much clearer. There was no “voting”. There were electors who were male Citizens of a certain age who owned a certain amount of property. This was done to assure fair elections, a very difficult thing to do. Some disagreed with this idea, so it was abandoned without a constitutional Amendment, which is illegal.

Women. The articles were clearer that women are not to be electors and were not to hold public office. This was not because they thought women were inferior in any way.

This was put in the Articles because many people knew, very sadly, that most women are slaves of the rogues and could not be trusted.

Taxes. The section about taxes completely prohibited direct taxes. These are taxes on Citizens, rather than on goods or products. They tend to be the most oppressive types of taxes.

The new Constitution allowed direct taxes if they are “apportioned”. This means the same for everyone.

Also, there was a limit placed on how high tariffs and other excise taxes could be – around 10%. This was done to limit the amount of money the government could collect and therefore to help limit the size of government.

Example: The income tax is a direct tax, meaning a tax on people. In fact, it was never ratified properly. It also violates the Fourth Amendment, the right to contract, the right to protect your property, and other rights.

Therefore, even if it were ratified, it should have been immediately struck down by the Supreme Court. The fact that it was not is due to a very corrupt Judicial branch of government in the United States.

Slavery. The slavery question was discussed more in the Articles. The founders stated unequivocally that they opposed slavery and that it needed to end in the United States. The idea that many Americans owned slaves is a complete lie. A small number owned them.

Slavery is not allowed in the common law of England, upon which the American legal system is built. In fact, slavery was illegal in Great Britain, but was allowed in their colonies such as America.

V. DIFFERENCES IN THE BILL OF RIGHTS BETWEEN THE ARTICLES AND THE CONSTITUTION

Property. In the Articles, there was a right to own property free and clear. This was removed in the Constitution. This is an important provision that is much needed today.

Example: One's house can be taken away by the government simply if one does not pay the property tax. This is not proper and a great loss of liberty for the people of America.

Guns. In the Articles, the Amendment about gun rights was worded much better. It stated that the people had a right to keep and bear arms to protect themselves from the government.

This would end much abuse of this right by states and the national government who seek to limit and destroy this important right.

Work. In the articles, there was a right to work and a clear right to contract, meaning to buy and sell.

These are basic rights. For example, occupational licensing laws clearly violate the right to contract and the right to work and need to be declared illegal. Occupational licensing laws such as medical and legal licenses do not assure quality of care and have helped wreck these professions.

They are simply control mechanisms that have raised prices and decreased the equality of care. For details, read The Case Against Medical and All Occupational Licensing.

Move about. The Articles include a right to move about. This is in addition to the right to assemble, which is in the Constitution.

Example: The activity of the governors during the covid-19 outbreak to restrict people to their homes was clearly illegal.

Quartering soldiers. The Amendment about prohibiting quartering of soldiers in people's home was stronger. It was a terrible habit of the British at the time that caused stealing, rapes and other serious problems.

Thankfully, this has not been an issue in America, so far.
