How do you control government?

[Sovereign-Jay: Webb.]

This is a Republic. In a Republic, government is controlled by Law.
That obviously means that government cannot control the Law. The Law controls the government.
The people entrust government with sufficient ability to deal with foreign governments and to
assist the sovereign people with civil and criminal remedies against trespasses.
The people are thereby left alone to control their own lives, Land and property, as sovereigns
with their own Sovereign Land secured by Land Patents, against any kind of encroachment.


13 States ratified "The Ordinance of Secession" this document drafted and ratified in 1860 and 1861 by the states officially seceding from the United States of America.
Each state ratified its own ordinance of secession, typically by means of a specially elected convention or general referendum.

During the Civil War, the states of Missouri and Kentucky had competing confederate and unionist governments claiming authority over their states.
Missouri's ordinance was approved by a legislative session called by Claiborne Fox Jackson,
the pro-confederate governor (see Missouri secession).
Kentucky's was approved by a convention of 200 people representing 65 counties of the state, but without support from the unionist state government.
The Confederacy officially seated both of these states in 1862, though they were contested throughout the war.

Virginia's ordinance was approved by a referendum but rejected by the northwestern section of the state (see Wheeling Convention), leading to the creation of West Virginia.

Georgia, Mississippi, South Carolina, and Texas also issued separate declarations of causes, in which they explained their reasons for secession.


When the Southern states walked out of Congress on March 27, 1861, the quorum to conduct business under the Constitution was lost. The only votes that Congress could lawfully take,
under Parliamentary Law, were those to set the time to reconvene, take a vote to get a quorum, and vote to adjourn and set a date, time, and place to reconvene at a later time,
but instead, Congress abandoned the House and Senate without setting a date to reconvene. Under the parliamentary law of Congress, when this happened,
Congress became sine die (pronounced see-na dee-a; literally "without day") and thus when Congress adjourned sine die, it ceased to exist as a lawful deliberative body, and the only lawful,
constitutional power that could declare war was no longer lawful, or in session.

Then President Lincoln executed the first executive order written by any President on April 15, 1861, Executive Order 1, and the nation has been ruled by the President under executive order ever since.
When Congress eventually did reconvene, it was reconvened under the military authority of the Commander-in-Chief and not by Rules of Order for Parliamentary bodies or by Constitutional Law; placing the
American people under martial rule ever since that national emergency declared by President Lincoln. The Constitution for the United States of America temporarily ceased to be the law of the land, and the President,
Congress, and the Courts unlawfully presumed that they were free to remake the nation in their own image, whereas, lawfully, no constitutional provisions were in place which afforded power to any of the actions
which were taken which presumed to place the nation under the new form of control martial law.
