Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Secession an Absurdity: It Is Perjury, Treason War; To Which Are Added Treason Defined, Declaration of Independence, and Constitution of the United States The letter-writers from Washington tell us that President Buchanan is not opposed to Secession, but will resist Nullification. But how Secession can be brought about without Nullification, they do not explain. The Constitution of the United States in its enacting clause declares that - "We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America." This clause is not a preamble, as sometimes it has been called; but it is the enacting clause, the head and front, the life and soul of the Constitution. It is the only part of the instrument which proclaims to us and to the world whose act and deed it is. The States, as such, did not make the Constitution, nor can they, as States, secede from it, nullify it, or abolish it The People of the United States made, ordained and established the Constitution, and they only can change it in the mode provided therein, or abolish it. Neither the State of South Carolina, nor Georgia, nor all the people in both of them, with or without the unanimous consent of half a dozen adjoining States, and all the people therein, can alter, secede from, nor nullify the Constitution.
