Kamala Harris Calls Kavanaugh’s Pocket Constitution ‘That Book You Carry’
breitbart.com ^ | 7 Sep 2018

Posted on 09/07/2018 8:30:03 PM PDT by Helicondelta

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) described a pocket-sized version of the U.S. Constitution belonging to Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh as “that book you carry,” on day four of the judge’s confirmation hearing.

Kavanaugh replied, “Three points I believe, senator, first the constitution, it is in the book that I carry. The constitution protects unenumerated rights. That’s what the Supreme Court has said.”

It says she can’t be President, that’s why she hates it.

He should have asked her; “Senator Harris, This ‘book I carry’ is called The Constitution of the United States of America, ever heard of it?”

Piers Morgan called Ben Shapiro’s Constitution, “your little book.”

That book you carry. Yeah. It's a little thing I like to call, The Constitution of the United States of America. And no, although you, and your friends, like to think of it as an obstacle, it is an important backstop. It is aimed at YOU, Ms. Harris.

The Constitution of the United States may just be the most important document ever penned in human history. It does not tell me what I can do, it tells me what YOU cannot do. I am an citizen, and I have rights. These rights CANNOT be infringed by power hungry, egotistical, elitist, "opportunists" (read sluts), like you.

The default position, in "the book I carry, is that the individuial has rights, not the government. Quite the contrary, the government only has rights and authority conferred to them by the governed. That book I carry, and that flag I salute are about one million times more valuable than anything that ever spews from your putrid lips.

Democrat KKK Senator Robert Byrd always carried a Pocket Constitution.

When he was being Interviewed about the Clinton Impeachment, he made a point of pulling it out of his Pocket and shaking it at the Interviewer.

Remember, good old Senator Byrd was called the Conscience of the Senate.

He doesn’t think he’s the only one that takes “that book” to heart.

Many of us swore an Oath to protect “that book”.

Not met one yet that disavowed that Oath.

Kinda like this guy.

Seems strict Constitution-alist......

Except the 14th. All slave children are citizens now. Remove the 14th.

I own 3, usually have one in my purse.

Comes in handy when teaching millennial co-workers about freedom.

Maybe we each send her one or two. Along with a printed copy of her oath of office stapled to it.

Just passing along a suggestion from a friend, ya know.

Yes. She and her website are quite opaque on the matter but it appears neither of her immigrant parents were even eligible yet to apply for USA citizenship at the time of her birth. Therefore it seems she was born with two citizenships ( India and Jamaica, her parents’ citizenships, this conclusion is subject to confirmation with the laws of those countries of course ). There is one more thing — the current ...(. but I assert constitutionally quite erroneous) ... view that she acquired “anchor baby” USA citizenship by virtue of bring born in Oakland California. Even granting this, she
Would still be ineligible for the presidency since she wouldn’t be a Natural Born Citizen of the United States. Imho your comment is right on.

The four words in your post that matter in the real world:

“...born in Oakland California”

That’s it. Case closed. Next topic please.

The courts don’t care about “NBC”. Not one bit. An NBC case against US-born K. Harris would be dismissed within the time it takes to reach for the gavel.

It’s a complete waste of time. Gratifying, perhaps, to share theories on web forums, in a knitting-circle or recipe-sharing sort of way, but useless in the real world.

“NBC” will never bring a court to block a US-born person like K. Harris from appearing on a ballot. And it will never cost her a single vote. (The tiny number of people who care about NBC aren’t going to vote for her anyhow.)

He should have asked her; “Senator Harris, This ‘book I carry’ is called The Constitution of the United States of America, ever heard of it?”

And then added, “I guess not, huh?”

Ted Cruz is quick on his feet while talking. And he’s a natual Smart Aleck. I can see Ted saying those remarks;
“Ever heard of it, Senator? I guess....you....haven’t!”
Kamala would then give him the most Evil of Evil Eyes you could imagine.

Understand your practical prediction. Thanks. ( this is but one of a number of ways our constitution has been stolen from us, I am hoping PDJT
Can appoint enough judges to swing it and our liberties back to us).
