This video explains the difference between a primary and sovereign "Citizen of the United States" as denoted by an uppercase "C" at Article 1 Section 2 Clause 2 of the organic or original Constitution, which has been, and remains to be, the inherent right of every "free Person" in America who have been recognized at Article 1 Section 2 Clause 3 since 1787 when it was first adopted, versus a secondary and subclass of citizen known as a "citizen of the United States" as denoted by a lowercase "c" under the 14th Amendment, who did not come into existence until 1868 (some three years upon the conclusion of the American Civil War in 1865) which was ostensibly drafted to provide the same "rights" to recently freed black slaves, that are secured to free Citizens by the Bill of Rights, and are extended to every free Person in the several States by Article 4 Section 2 Clause 1, but rather only granted them mirrored "privileges and immunities" under Section 1 of the 14th Amendment, which do not however include the non-enumerated rights retained to free Citizens of the several States by the 9th & 10th Amendments.

Was there no such thing as a "U.S. Citizen" or "Citizen of the United States" prior to 1868 ? Of course there was. However, our founding fathers designed our sovereignty to be derived from one's native State first and foremost (and not the federal government as 14th Amendment citizenship is) and then by virtue of our primary State Citizenship it has always been established from the beginning that we are likewise, but secondly, also Citizens of the several States.

However, these two classes of citizenship are not taught in schools, whether they be public or private, and as such "We The People" have become unaware, ignorant if you will, of our true inheritance. And because we have failed to be informed of these two such distinctions in citizenship (one who is a "sovereign" American, and the other who is a "subject" of the District of Columbia, no different than a "subject" of an Autocracy) we have been duped into "Voluntary Servitude by Deception" which is not prohibited by the 13th Amendment.

How so, one might ask, has virtually every American forsaken the sovereignty of our State Citizenship in lieu of being the chattel property and political bondservant of the federal government under the venue and jurisdiction of the 14th Amendment ? The answer quite simply is through Contracts of Adhesion. And without question, the main way in which we have allowed this to happen to ourselves is by applying for a Social Security Number.

When applying for a Social Security Number, one must make a declaration as to their "citizenship" and to subscribe this affirmation under the penalty of perjury. And once again, most of us, because we have never been educated that there are indeed two different distinctions of American citizenship, make our declaration and affirmation that we are in fact a "U.S. citizen". However, what the government has failed to fully disclose to us is that the legal definition of "U.S. citizen" that they are using is that of a 14th Amendment citizen.

One must therefore conclude that a despotic and tyrannous government by deception through syntax and by misleading legalese and deceptive words and phrases, has either by means of negligent misrepresentation, if not by actual constructive fraud, has deceived the American people into forsaking the sovereignty of their State Citizenship in lieu of the political status of that of a bondservant under the subjugation of the 14th Amendment; and by such deception, has thereby created the greatest distortion of truth ever perpetrated upon a nation of free people in the entire history of the world.
