: : Dear Friends,

: : It has taken a very long time to find a
: : federal court decision which hits the
: : mark so directly, but this one does
: : exactly THAT!

: : Take a single sheet of paper, and arrange
: : is horizontally, in "landscape" mode
: : (11" side parallel to the horizon).

: : Draw one horizontal line across the page,
: : then bisect this line at the midpoint.
: : This bisecting vertical line is the year
: : 1866, the year of the first Civil Rights Act.

: : To the left of this line, there was only
: : one class of Citizens in America, and
: : these were state Citizens.

: : To the right of this line, there were
: : two classes of citizens in America:
: : one class was the original class of
: : state Citizens; and the other, second
: : class was the new class of federal
: : citizens, also known as "citizens of
: : the United States."

: : We have already fully documented the
: : many court cases which have upheld
: : the existence of two classes of citizens.
: : See the Petition for Leave to File
: : Enlarged Brief, in USA v. Gilbertson
: : in the Supreme Law Library:

: : http://supremelaw.com/library

: : The cases which have adjudicated the
: : diversity statute have opened up a
: : whole new line of research. It is here
: : that we found the Pannill case.

: : Note where the judge in Pannill clearly
: : held that federal citizens were NOT within
: : the language of the organic (original)
: : Constitution. This can ONLY mean that
: : the provisions at 1:2:2, 1:3:3, 2:1:5
: : (which are collectively known as the
: : Qualifications Clauses), 3:2:1 and 4:2:1
: : all refer to Citizens of the several
: : states of the Union, and no other, since
: : there were NO OTHER CLASSES OF CITIZENS
: : until the enactment of the 1866 Civil
: : Rights Act.

: : The so-called 14th amendment [sic] did not
: : "create" a second class of citizens;
: : that so-called amendment was, at best,
: : merely declaratory of existing law, i.e.
: : the 1866 Civil Rights Act.

: : Pannill thus provides us with an
: : excellent point of departure, to carry
: : our burden of proving, beyond any doubt,
: : that a second, inferior class of
: : federal citizens has existed in parallel
: : with state Citizenship, ever since the
: : end of the American Civil War.

: : Thus, add a second horizontal line,
: : right below your original horizontal line,
: : only this second line extends to the
: : bisecting vertical line, which marks
: : the year 1866, and extends no further
: : to the left.

: : The two parallel lines are like two
: : different rails on a railroad track.

: : Both lines continue indefinitely to the
: : right of the page, however, since the
: : Union is perpetual, and Congress will
: : always have its "federal zone," where
: : Congress is the "State" government,
: : for all local, municipal purposes.

: : I hope this helps.

: Here is a graphic illustration of the
: metaphor described above:

:
: Articles of Confederation
: |
: | U.S. Constitution
: | |
: | | 1866 Civil Rights Act
: | | |
: | | 1 class: | 2 classes:
: *---*----------------*---------------------->8
: state Citizens | state Citizens
: |
: *---------------------->8
: federal citizens

:
: where "8" means infinity,
: because the Union is perpetual.

:
: Sincerely yours,
