According to the words of Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence, governments derive their power from the consent of the governed. In 1788 the Constitution was ratified by the consent of the states.
Jefferson also stated that it is our right and our duty to alter or abolish the government when it become tyrannical. Most of us agree that the government of the United States which was created to be our servant has become our master.
Voting out one set of criminals and replacing them with a new set is an exercise in futility. The only way to restore liberty is to withdraw our consent. The first step is to resign from political parties and cancel your voter registration.
The second step is to always strive to do what is right and to refuse to comply with unjust laws that violate the principles of liberty and sound government.
The political party system will continue until the American people collectively refuse to support these corrupt institutions.
