    The US Constitution established three branches of government: legislative, executive, and judicial. In this video, Kim Kutz Elliott discusses how the Framers employed the concepts of separation of powers and checks and balances to limit the power of government.

    If this is an accurate readout of the US Constitution, then our duty as United States Citizens, is to forcibly return the government to those terms, and so weaken the government that it cannot ever exceed these terms, no matter what it does!

    Ah yes, Checks and Balances, where one man has the same amount of power as the entire congress. Beautiful.

    Question 2 options:
    Senate
    Executive
    Legislative
    Judicial

    We don't simply need the government to be completely checkmated, we need it utterly impotent; so that no matter what it does, it is unable to get past the gridlock of its branches we will ensnare it in, forever, no matter what may happen.

    Also, the way you contain the supreme court: pass constitutional amendments: that does it immediately, and permanently; and there is nothing that the courts can do about *that one*, it requires the states to do that, but they *can and have* forced the supreme court to amend its rulings contrary to its consent... for you literally *cannot* have an amendment that is unconstitutional- it is an impossibility; so you cannot have any amendment declared unconstitutional. There is also the reality that any treaties we sign automatically overrule any rulings of the courts and the government, such a deal supersedes the constitution in and of itself. Which is why we have to be careful what treaties we sign. There is also the happenstance of the American Citizens engaging in civil disobedience that can force a law or even a treaty to be null and void as it turns out.

    “But, indeed, no private person has a right to complain, by suit in Court, on the ground of a breach of the Constitution. The Constitution, it is true, is a compact, but he is not a party to it. The States are the parties to it. And they may complain. If they do, they are entitled to redress. Or they may waive the right to complain. If they do, the right stands waived. Could not the States, in their sovereign capacities, or Congress (if it has the power) as their agent, forgive such a breach of the Constitution, on the part of a State, as that of imposing a tax on imports, or accept reparation for it? In case this were done, what would become of the claims of private persons, for damages for such breach? To let such claims be set up against the forgiven party, would be to do away with the forgiveness. No, if there existed such claimants, they would have to appeal, each to his own sovereign for redress. It was that sovereign's business to get enough from the offending sovereign, to cover all private losses of his own citizens-and if he did not get enough to do that, those citizens must look to him, alone for indemnity.”
    Padelford, Fay & Co. v. Mayor and Aldermen of City of Savannah 14 Ga. 438, 1854 WL 1492 (Ga.)
