THE 10TH AMENDMENT

Shortly after the constitution was excepted by all the States, the States were still concerned that the constitution did not make it clear enough that the federal government only held very limited power to perform very specific duties. Because of this concern they added the 10th Amendment.

 X Amendment: The powers not delegated to the United States (federal government) by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

 It is very clear that all powers belong to the people and then the State and unless it is delegated to the federal government as outlined in the constitution, the federal government has NO authority from the people to act.

 We find ourselves in a very hard pressed situation because the States (including We the People) have allowed the federal government to exercise on authority that was not delegated to them. They have acted unchecked without authority for so long, that now they believe they can do anything whether the constitution grants it or not. They are even willing to come down on the American people with armed forces to control what was never given to them, hence the Bundy Ranch.

 What do we do now?   How do we put them back in their constitutional cage?  My Dad (Cliven Bundy) simply said NO, not with my rights! And the people stood with him.

 We love America because of the freedom loving people found within her borders.
