CHUCK WOOLERY’S IDEAS ARE MIRRORED IN NEW CONSTITUTION. The week, Mike Huckabee had TV personality Chuck Woolery—former host of ‘Love Connection’—as a guest. Contrary to the usual Hollywood liberalism, Woolery has joined the conservative movement. In introducing Woolery, Huckabee paraphrased him as having said: “Politicians who are too in love with power shouldn’t get too connected to their jobs.”
Recently, I’ve said that democracy isn’t about sending the most powerful officials to Washington to… ‘fight for you’ (as SC Senator Lindsey Graham said this week in a TV ad). Democracy gives all the people an equal vote, regardless of that person’s oratory or ability to win arguments. Incumbents keep getting elected because they have convinced the voters that having powerful representatives is an advantage. But fighting… across-the-aisles in Washington just isn’t getting the job done. In his opening remarks, Woolery said, “ ‘Career’ and ‘politician’ should never be linked together.” My New Constitution will have 100% of the career politicians gone within four years. The reason they won’t all be gone from day one is because those familiar with the workings of the House should stay around for a while to help edify the new guys how things work. After four years, those new guys should know the processes well enough not to need any of the career politicians. Mike Huckabee asked Woolery if he thinks there should be term limits for Congress. Chuck said, “Yes. But I’m not sure how it gets done… Power **seduces career politicians.” He supposed that two terms, like for the President, should be sufficient. That would be four years for representatives and twelve years for senators. Well, Chuck, it can ‘get done’ simply by ratifying my New Constitution as soon as possible! Because the US Senate will be GONE from day one, I recommend that terms totaling one decade be the maximum for House members and for Justices of the Supreme Court. **I had said, in referring to Rep. Ron Paul, “He has been seduced by the pomp and circumstances in Washington. He could have been President if only he had said too hell with Washington, and recommended that we ratify my New Constitution." Woolery lamented that Washington has the IRS and other ways to cause the public to be fearful. Then, he insisted, “Washington needs to be afraid of US! We need to drill them.” (Perhaps like a drill sergeant.) My New Constitution removes restrictions on who can sue whom. Those in government who wrong any citizen will no longer be able to escape by claiming they were only doing their public job. Those working in government shall respect the general public, because any law-abiding citizen who catches any government official or employee violating the New Constitution can FIRE that person on-the- spot! “It’s our government, not theirs!”, Woolery said. Along the way, Mike Huckabee said, “Tea parties are one of the greatest movements in America.” Woolery replied, “People should really turn on the government!” Very importantly, Woolery said, “Lawyers should not be voted into office!” Clearly, lawyers are on of the main groups responsible for the decline of our once great country, and of our government. Below are some of the much needed restrictions on how lawyers can do business in the future: “… Obtaining a lawyer in civil cases is as fundamental to justice as obtaining a lawyer in criminal cases. No statute of limitation shall apply to any case in which a plaintiff or defendant diligently seeks but can’t find a lawyer. Upon request to the court, an unbiased lawyer shall be appointed. In federal cases licensed lawyers from any state or territory may be used regardless of where the trial takes place. The right of the People to obtain justice for any criminal or civil injury is fundamental. Justice departments, law enforcement agencies, and/or the courts shall be the instruments of justice. Should such in any way obstruct justice by improper procedure, bias, or intentional neglect of duty, such persons shall be held as criminally accountable as anyone else for obstruction of justice—a felony. Undue delay by a defendant or their counsel in a civil case— as a defensive tactic—is prohibited, and if present may be considered as evidence supporting guilt. Causing undue delay of appeals, similarly, is prohibited. Section 8: It’s a felony for any person, organization, group, or special interest—publicly or privately—to lobby judges or justices for influencing their rulings; also, for any judge or justice to accept a bribe in exchange for a judicial favor. It’s a capital offense for such to accept a bribe that directly results in a person’s death. It’s a felony to extort an innocent defendant into pleading guilty by threatening to try them for a greater crime; ipso facto, the greater crime is excused. Law enforcement and the courts shall be responsive rather than proactive, protective without being subjugative, and shall enforce the New Constitution ahead of any other laws or employment hierarchies. Racial or other statistical profiling, preemptive arrests, detention or sentencing are illegal if a person’s constitutional rights are violated. In a national emergency the President may waive the latter. It’s a felony for an attorney to acquiesce to their client’s ongoing violations of this constitution, and/or their criminal conduct, without censure; or for any reason to conspire to violate, or violate, another person’s civil rights; or to stonewall the easy resolution of justified complaints by non action, legal shenanigans or personal bias. Similarly, it’s a civil offense for an individual, group or business to require that a justified plaintiff have an attorney before moving to make agreeable amends. States shall license no attorney on the payroll or board of another type business, organization or non-judicial governmental agency; nor one who violates this constitution; nor one who because of personal bias, fails to competently defend the civil rights of any Citizen. Incorporation doesn’t protect those in such from personal responsibility for maliciousness in: harming any person; irremediably harming local or world environs; or endangering the likely health and safety of local or world Citizens. A crime’s seriousness shall be consistent with the mores of the People and the apt juries rather than with government. Judges & justices shall be well mannered, forthright and succinct; courtrooms aren’t their property nor forums for venting their feelings. A Citizen can sanction a judge or justice in court for deviating from this constitution or its spirit. Rightful behavior by any law abiding Citizen is appropriate, implicitly, and no Citizen so acting shall be subordinate in or to any court, nor be made to defer to overly drawn-out legal processes or pending rulings. 33rd Amendment: Diverse backgrounds of representatives in the House are desirable for fair government. Therefore, if any profession shall be present in numbers exceeding 20% of the total of all representatives, in the next election of representatives, those candidates from such profession shall be required to win by a margin of at least 5% of the final total vote in that district. Should the next term’s number of representatives from such profession still exceed 20%, the margin required to win shall be raised to 10%, and etc., until the proportion from such profession is 20% or less. Such margin reverts, in steps, at 20% or less. After three elections, any profession still constituting more than 20% of the house shall never again be taught as a major at any public institution, and thereafter, no public financing shall be allowed toward such major at any private institution. …” Mr. Nice Guy, Mike Huckabee—a possible candidate for President in 2012— needs to TOUGHEN UP and realize that the best… and thus the “nicest” thing for the most Americans will be to get the rascals and career politicians out of Washington! There are literally thousands of clear- thinking, business-like men and women who will be willing to cooperate to revamp and streamline our government, IF they know that the media won’t be publicizing their every word or deed. In the future, when a representative goes to work in Washington, ‘bib overalls’ will be just as appropriate an attire as custom-made suits and… ‘power’ ties. The latter vestments have gotten this country into enough problems, don’t you think? — John A.
