The American Question:

Kingdom or Republic?


STILLWATER BAY, CA-- In the face of diminishing support for the politicians in Washington, D.C., a new nationalist group has organized, hoping to give Americans real choices. The Nationalists plan to carry out a program that would involve the retirement of the entire Federal Government, in favor of a community-based constitutional kingdom that would take its place. The first premise of the movement derives of the sense that the existing system of government has worn out its welcome with the American people, who by and large want to junk it. The surprising vote total of political black sheep Ross Perot was evidence of the radicalization of the electorate. Where once "experts" felt comfortable dismissing third party candidacies, the volatile nature of social issues (being in the midst of a massive crime wave), as well as a prolonged economic slump brought on by the dislocations of technological advances, has forced them to reconsider. Now, once solid institutions are being forced to realize that nothing is sacred in the republic; any institution can be jettisoned, even the republic itself.

Even though Americans have been conditioned by the educational institution and the media industry to associate American values with republicanism, there remains in the heart of the American people a connection with the traditional. The American republic is not traditional, and its origin as a plan evolved by lawyers predisposed it to accomodate its kindred institutions, which, like itself, are the inventions of lawyers: corporations. The republic has been a political veneer placed above an essentially traditional, royalist society, that has been allowed to gratify its tribal needs for identity in the English royal family, and to a lesser extent, by the ceremonials of the so- called First Family of the President. While structurally, the republic has been pre-occupied with its police functions, such as the capture and return of fugitive slaves, socially it has been the avenue of advancement for generations of opportunists and charlatans.

The proponents of the kingdom have found that the supporters of the republic are deathly afraid of the idea of a kingdom, and because they have monopolistic control over the media, and they are afraid they would lose any genuinely open contest of free ideas, they refuse to give any news coverage to the growing body of support for the kingdom among the American people. According to the proponents of the kingdom, a royal government is the only true legal system of government, and the only way the republic was able to come into existence was through superior physical force, and the willingness of its supporters to commit massive fraud. The customs which define a lawful government are over ten thousand years old, and like any scholastic discipline, they are not subject to the whim or fancy of any person, no matter what opinions are held. Law is not something people are allowed to pick and choose; its moral rectitude is self-evident, which is where it derives all of its authority. It is the lack of any moral foundation in the so-called "ordinances" of the republic, that make the "laws" of the republic suspect. Additionally, the supporters of the American Kingdom point to several progressive modern societies that are constituted as kingdoms, as examples of stable alternatives to the republic: Denmark, Sweden, Norway, the Netherlands, Spain and England, all are kingdoms. In the New World, Canada has been a separate kingdom since its independence from Great Britain, as a monarchy of which the English Queen, Elizabeth Windsor, is Queen of Canada. Mexico has had two short-lived Empires, but the longest lasting royalist state in the new world was Brazil, which had the stablest system of government in south America, which followed the regular pattern of succumbing to a military dictatorship after the dissolution of the Brazilian Empire.

Non-traditional societies under republics deliberately neglect (and exclude) information on royalist institutions, because it makes people aware of their ancient rights, that are only relevant in the context of a traditional society; rights that are the very essence and heart of political freedom. What is not understood in America is the fact that the institution of kingship had precedents that went back thousands of years, rigidly controlling the acts of the monarch, the king; whereas the presidency devised by the Founding Fathers had no precedents controlling it. It was an open book, that the Revolutionary generation had no problem filling with precedents, all of which were aimed at limiting the scope of the individual's prerogatives under customary law. Patriotism in a traditional, royalist society involved a mutual oath of loyalty between the prince and the national; both pledged to protect the other. Under the republic, it is a one-way street: The individual is expected to pledge his allegiance to the republic, and to its flag, but it in return guarantees nothing. The "rights" supposedly guaranteed by the republic, are already inborn in the people: they have no need for any "republic" to protect their rights; what they need, is a legal system of government, a government that actually answers to the principles of law. Anyone who is even remotely acquainted with the charter of the Federal Government, and who knows the principles of law that are the language it is written in, knows full well that the Constitution of 1787 does not protect the rights of the people, but is instead a deliberate effort to curtail those rights, to the benefit of the commercial, landowning class.

The termination of the republic -- at this point in time -- seems to be a sure thing, for it has enraged a broad section of the population that crosses all social and political boundaries. But the substitution of a legal government for the republic is still somewhat remote. In the efforts of the politicians to keep power, they have so thoroughly disinformed the American people that the people actually cannot perceive what is in their own best interests. The process of becoming informed (educated), amounts to a process reminiscent of "Denazification." It roughly parallels the dilemma of the kidnap victim, who comes to identify with her kidnappers. It is a very serious, massive problem that is related to the false history spoon-fed Americans in school, that dis-arms them in their struggles with the republic, and its allied institutions, corporations. It is the fact that the people are led to believe that institutions that are structurally designed to exploit them, are there to serve them, that ensures that they will live in confusion and uncertainty, making them susceptible and vulnerable throughout their lives. When true information breaks through this cloud of deliberately generated confusion, it is like the individual wakes up from a deep slumber; but the process is so energy intensive, that the odds are high that most of the people will not be able to channel their anger at the system into anything except its destruction. However, once it becomes widely acceptable to discuss a post-republic America, the discussion of the evolution of a legal replacement will be accepted as well. (Of course, the idea of a post-republic world is anathema to the media, which is doing everything it can to focus the American public's attention away from that line of thinking).

The fact that the republic was set up through the usurpation of legal authority means that it cannot serve as a source of valid reform. Legal principles dictate that the only source of legal authority is the people themselves, and historically, the people have expressed their will through assemblages called national constituent assemblies, which are usually limited to such serious issues as the selection of a new king. Once a lawful monarch has been elected, the king becomes the fount of law and honor, enabling the calling of free elections, to prepare for the installation of a democratically elected parliament, and a prime minister or president. It is vital to understand that the idea of a king embraces the principle that a legal government is above political parties and favoritism, and that it derives its authority from the will to encourage national unity. In contrast, the republic devised by the Founding Fathers always sought to pit the various American ethnicities against each other, starting with the races.

In the United States the kingdom is based on the vestiges of the unwritten British constitution, which remains the underlying foundation of the American legal profession. In English law, the "king never dies," and when the authority of the king was usurped in 1776, under the rules of law of constructive trusts, the authority of the king remained in tact, in a state of trust for the legal successor.

The proclamation of the Kingdom of the United States of America by a national constituent assembly would have the effect of cancelling out the entire republic as a legal entity. Once a popular nationalist movement has succeeded in the process of creating a native kingdom, through the actual re-birth of local community life, it will finalize the transition to a friendly society. Through a series of orchestrated boycotts, and a General Strike, the American people will be able to demoralize the supporters of the police state republic, by exposing the fraud that the masses support the republic. By systematically and repeatedly organizing the American people in their defiance of the republic, it will force it into permanent retirement; only then will we see the magnitude of the embezzlements committed. (It should be understood that the kingdom will come into being through useful, local social volunteer projects instead of useless political campaigning; things that will have an immediate and material impact on improving the quality of life for Americans. This will distinguish the nationalist movement from other political movements, that only want to win power under the republic, so that some political candidate can make a windfall from his term in office).

The immediate impact of the proclamation of the American Kingdom would be in the form of relief from the crushing burden of taxes the average American bears under the regime of the republic. The proponents of the kingdom believe that over half of what all Americans pay to the republic in taxes every year is EMBEZZLED. Much of that which goes into supposedly legitimate government contracts is also being embezzled, because the prices and salaries are inflated, or the vendor is a relative of the person awarding the contract on behalf of the government. In recent years, the IRS and the Pentagon were both defined as beyond the ability to be audited, which signifies the fact that they are out of control, and the only way to regain control is to shut them down. But who could do that? Congress, the president? It won't happen. Only the Regent of the United States, the leading proponent of the American Kingdom, the man who would be king when the throne is restored, has the power and authority to sign unconditional orders that could effect such an important change.

The Regent has already signed orders that guarantee that the IRS would be abolished entirely upon the proclamation of the American Kingdom, along with the income and inheritance taxes. This is because the income and inheritance taxes were designed to give the state an interest in the proceeds of individuals, as a legal pre-text for the politicians of the republic to invade their privacy. The Regent has guaranteed to put an end to this invasion, once and for all. The Regent has made it clear that the legitimate American government will be financed by a 5% national sales tax, complemented where needed by the issue and sale of local bonds for regional projects, and a National Trust established from the properties of the Federal Government, once it has been legally concluded and its assets surrendered to the successor government of the kingdom.

SOME PEOPLE ARE VERY EXCITED BY THE PROSPECT OF A LEGITIMATE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT. Only a monarch will have the legal or moral force to stop the strangulation of the American nation by the bureaucracy of the republic. The American people are tired of promises. They are tired of the lies and business as usual. They know that each and every one of them is sending hundreds and thousands of their hard-earned dollars to an institution in Washington, D.C., that never listens to their concerns, that always demands more of them, and that is busy building prisons, where it intends to send them, and their children. The American Kingdom will involve the ending of the official status of Washington, D.C. as the national capital, which would be turned into a museum to the republic, and admissions charged would go to retiring the gargantuan debt the politicians of the republic thought nothing of accumulating against the credit of the American people. The official status of the entire Beltway Culture would come to an end. Every scrap of every official document of every federal agency would be boxed and shipped to the new royal capital of the nation, in Dana Point, California, where the Regent, (who would be crowned king in one of the many churches built by his grandfather, the 1st Prince of Ely), resides. There, under the watchful eyes of a genuinely democratic, elected parliament and president, only those agencies essential to the well-being of the American people would continue to exist.

The transition from a republic to a kingdom would be easy, if a paper shuffle was all that was involved. But unlike the creation of the republic, by lawyers -- which meant signing a legal document -- the creation of a genuine nation, through the creation of an actual national American identity, is a purely social phenomena. A priceless phenomena that can have no commercial value. It involves turning around a disintegrating social condition wherein the principal entertainment is murder and suicide, and drug induced escape, to in effect create a friendly society. In a country where plantation owners are worshipped as folk heros, you are asking a lot when you imply that "good neighbors" means more than minding your own business. The time has come for Americans to stop hurting each other. The time has come for men and women to wake up to the reality that they are indeed, brothers and sisters. That when any living thing suffers, ALL other living things suffer too. And that when social justice is lacking somewhere, then social justice is lacking everywhere. The time has come for the American Kingdom.


"And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
"And the Lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother?
And he said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper?
"And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground.
And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood from they hand;
When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength;
a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth.
"And Cain said unto the Lord, My punishment is greater than I can bear."
