In the preamble, why is the P in People capitalized on the contract? People of the United States, that's the name of the corporate entity,and the men that signed it are the only ones that are party to the contract? Then the Posterity, also capitalized, means their bloodline? So citizens of the United States aren't a party to the contract so citizens of the United States have exactly zero rights?

[skinnychef]

that is a really good question phillip, and i do not really have an answer, tho your argument makes alot of sense bathed in the light of corporate personhood and the corporate oligarchy which rules today. i also see the preamble as applicable to all people in as far as we ALL have free will, and laws are an AGREEMENT between ourselves and the ruling class. rather, subjugation requires compliance and will.

In 18th Century English, most nouns were capitlized just like they are in German today. You cant't ready anything into the fact that the P in people is capitalized in the Constitution any more than you can in any 18th century writing. Language changes with use. The constitution is not a contract--its vastly superior to any contract.

Those who signed it and their posterity. Notice how the "P's" in people and posterity are capitalized. These folks were looking out for themselves and their bloodlines.

[Grimhilde7]

if not,then who is?

[newgtguy]

Are you a Citizen of the United States?

[newgtguy]

Hate to break it to you, but you are not of "The People" as stated in the preamble to the Constitution.

[newgtguy]

Phillip is 100% correct. Notice the difference between the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. The DOI talks about God granted inalienable rights. The Constitution gives goverment granted "Civil Rights."

The Constitution creates two political classes and most of us are not "of the people." If you are a Citizen (the lower political class) you are in a condition of total voluntary servitude.

I am a sovereign, put here by my creator.

[PhillipOrion]

Do I, as a living man, an Inhabitant of the land, have rights I was born with? Do I need a piece of paper to grant me rights? Do I need to write my own international treaty to claim my rights since I didn't sign the constitution and I'm not a blood relative of someone that did? I just have a couple of rights I want to claim. Don't touch or damage my property and don't deceive me in your contracts. If I do need to write my own treaty, where do I send it? The Hague?
