Az State Senate President Russell Pearce : ‘You’re not a citizen of the United States. You’re a citizen of a sovereign state’
From Think Progress
PEARCE: U.S. history, most of us weren’t around when the Constitution was written. But you remember we kind of existed before Congress, the states. We created the Congress, we created the federal government, by compact. Do you know what existed before the Congress, the states? Do you know, you’re not a citizen of the United States. You’re a citizen of a sovereign state. The fifty sovereign states makes up United States of America, we’re citizens of those sovereign states. It is not a delegated authority. It’s an inherent authority that states have over the federal government. [applause] It’s about time somebody gets it right!
Think Progress has more, including the video of this nutter making like he is some modern-day Jefferson Davis.
One still must ask themselves, why does the far right fringe want to destroy this country so much?
