Kerchner: On the Sovereign and Sovereign Immunity
In the case of constitutional issues We the People and/or the Constitution created by We the People are sovereign. The fundamental law of our nation, the Constitution, can only be changed by amending it by the process provided in that Constitution, not by a branch of the federal government usurping or ignoring it. Congress cannot amend the Constitution by itself and certainly not with a simple majority vote. It takes a vote of 2/3 the members of Congress to put forward such an amendment to the several states and ratification by 3/4 of the several states of our nation. We are a Constitutional Republic, not a pure democracy. All rights and power not given to the federal government by the Constitution is reserved to the several states and to the People. See the 9th and 10th Amendments in the Bill of Rights for the details on that fact. We the People created the federal government enabled by the founding document, the federal U.S. Constitution. The Congress or the President cannot arbitrarily ignore the U.S. Constitution and those branches of the federal government cannot hide behind sovereign immunity. For if they can the Constitution is then no longer the supreme law of the land and the Congress and the President have placed themselves above that supreme law. We would no longer be a nation of laws if the supreme law of the land can be ignored and not enforced by the whims of the simple political majority in control of Congress.
I believe that Article I, Section 6, clause 1 protects the individual Senators and Reps from arrest and/or charges due to their speech and debate. It does not grant sovereign immunity to the Congress as a whole or the Senate as a body or the House as a body to totally ignore the Constitution, the "fundamental law" as Vattel describes such laws, and the foundational law of our federal government and nation. The sovereign power in our Republic is “We the People” and the Constitution we established to limit the power of the Federal Government, and thus the Congress which is part of that. Thus the Congress as a body in our government is not sovereign and thus cannot have sovereign immunity regarding charges that it as a body did not do its constitutional duty and/or ignored parts of the constitution. Who or what is the USA. It is the several states and We the People and the Constitution. It is not the Congress and it is not the President. The Constitution is the supreme and sovereign law. Congress is not sovereign and neither is the President and thus they cannot use sovereign immunity to betray and undermine the constitution. If the Congress is sovereign, then Congress would be the ultimate power and even be above the constitution. That is not our system of government. And that is not what Vattel taught either and wrote about a republic with a written constitution. The elected officials are our representatives and we acquiesce to them to run the government as long as they obey the Constitution and not ignore any part of the Constitution, the supreme law of the land, and that these elected representatives act in a way to protect our life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness which our patriot ancestors and many who have served since fought and died to obtain and keep for us. The written Constitution is supreme and sovereign as that contract was established by We the People acting through the several states. And it states it takes 3/4th of the several states via agreement of the People of those states speaking through their respective legislative body to change that sovereign law, the U.S. Constitution.
We the People are the sovereigns and the Constitution is the supreme, fundamental, sovereign law in our federal system. The President and Congress are not above the law. No executive order or statutory law passed by them is supreme to the Constitution and the inalienable rights of We the People. I did not swear an oath to defend a man or any particular person serving as the President or a piece of land. I swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution. We the People retain the ancient right of the sovereign, which is us in our system, to bring a Quo Warranto charge against a usurper Putative President. And I did so in my lawsuit. Any order or law made by Congress or anyone else in our federal government which stands in the way of We the People's inalienable right to protect our Constitution, which we created, from a usurper must fall. Those laws must fall by the wayside as subservient and that they are not applicable to blocking our inalienable rights and cannot be allowed to block the People getting answers in the federal courts to Constitutional questions. I swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. I intend to do so.

"I swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. I intend to do so."
Since you took the oath, your greviences and liberty violations are separate to that of "Millions of voters" since you are in special category of persons who have taken the oath and thus have had their oaths violated.
Berg and others did not take the oath so their greviences and injuries are constitent with that of "Million of voters".
You are special.
Great post, Charles ... and kudow for your support of our real form of government.
Let's hope that Mario will be able to include some or all of those points in his opposition to the MTD.
Good stuff!!!!!!!
I received my "Where's The Birth Certificate" sign from WND. So far I have made 2 trips to steps of the Florida Capitol for others to see it. I do not know if it will have any effect. Perhaps in time...
Here is the YouTube User who has been claiming proof to Obama's Kenyan Birth.

Perhaps you can get somewhere with him. WND has been unsucessful. Perhaps you might have better luck in sorting this situation out.
James:
You had some good points on your post that started "I swore an oath ..." and hopefully Mario will cogitate upon those.
After all the sovereign immunity claim normally relates to torts and money damages and time limits of acting, but it DOES have to do with contracts - and is not the Constitution not a contract between the government (and superior to it) and the citizenry???

Sadly, I think the Ebay BC thing is pretty clearly a scam and not worth scarce resources on.
We appreciate the time and effort that you have put into this matter Mr. Apuzzo. Knowing full well that Mr. Kerchner has served this country in the United States Navy as an officer speaks volumes. At the time of this posting it is 2:00 AM in the morning and I hope everyone is getting a good nights sleep. Too bad I can't say the same thing for our Senators as they are faced with a very perplexing problem. Tha problem is what to do with a man who constantly is breaking the law and throwing his weight around. The imposter in the white house is not unlike hitler. You can read that story for yourself but the solution is to remove the cancer. This man wanted utter power because he is a crazed sicko. Tell me what you want to hear and that will be what comes out of my mouth. Dishonesty runs rampant in Washington D.C. so we take matters into our own hands once again not unlike 1776,
