NATIONAL CALL FOR UNITED ACTION
~When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Natures God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
~We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
~ from the U.S. Declaration of Independence
A well-organized group of American soldiers is issuing a call to action to citizens from all 50 states in the union who have longed for an opportunity to express in a meaningful way, and from the platform too large to be ignored, their displeasure with and absolute refusal to accept the socialist leading of president Barack Hussein Obama and his cabal of anti-American czars and thugs.

BTT!
"The former soldiers leading this charge are Gathering of Eagles and Eagles Up! organizer, U.S. Army (Ret.) Harry G. Riley & Company, columnist and patriot JB Williams, and retired U.S. Army Major General and senior military analyst Paul E. Vallely."
November 11, 2011 "March on DC II"
Exactly. People keep trying to make comparisons. In fact the two phenomena are polar opposites.
eg. The central theme of the Tea Party is to retrench governments back to the boundaries of the Constitutional as they interpret it (which was the interpretation universally held less than 50 years ago)
By contrast, key Occupiers demands, (like forgive all debt) could only be enacted if the Constitution was suspended.
bump
You left out former Marine Timothy Harrington!
What this country needs is another Constitutional Convention. I have heard all the excuses and reasons why that is impossible but there has to be a way where we can acquire control of our destiny and modernize our founding documents.
I’m sure many posters here can think of at least one thing they would like to change, or clarify in the Constitution. Some wording that would make it impossible for some future unelected judge to twist the wording in order to make it fit his own beliefs and agendas.
I think it's been shown that there is no wording a leftist judge won't twist or just outright ignore in favor of his own "enlightened wisdom". They simply don't put any authority or value on fixed rules, especially when compared to their own contemporary enlightened status.
Agree.
A Convention would open us up to all manner of liberal sh*theadedness. No thanks.
We need to restore our Republic. By force of arms if necessary.
IMO, there should be NO modernizing of our Constitution. It should be left alone, the way it was intended by our Founding Fathers.
What we need is to change our government, to those that will uphold the Constitution, as it was written.
And TERM LIMITS. I believe if Term Limits are set in place for EVERY politician, at local and federal levels, then they won’t be in place long enough, to obtain enough power to change or twist the Constitution to their agenda.
Make the representatives be truly that, representatives. Take away their benefits, the life time pay/pensions, and any other subsidies they get for serving their country. It should NOT be a career. And it definitely should NOT be something they WANT to stay in. I liked the idea someone else came up with on another thread, where they should get paid, based on how well they represent their constituents. If they don’t represent, or prove they are there for themselves, they don’t get paid and vice versa.
Just sayin’
This would also put an end to their life long political and economical connections, i.e., Soros. He wouldn't be able to buy or black mail a politician for life.
I think the overwhelming majority of Americans, both left and right, could agree to this one. Only the corrupt wouldn't support it.
Here it is, already posted.
O.o
Too many levels of wow here.

A Declaration to Restore the Constitutional Republic
NATIONAL CALL FOR UNITED ACTION
by JB Williams, Timothy Joseph Harrington, and Maj. Gen. Paul E. Vallely (Ret.),
BTTT - hope this gets read, important.
Our Constitution isn’t broken. It just needs to be followed. A ConCon won’t make that happen.
