"Do not separate text from historical background. If you do, you will haveperverted and subverted the Constitution, which can only end in a distorted,bastardized form of illegitimate government."--James Madison

Of course, that is exactly what has happened in this country, we haveallowed a certain political ideology, composed of members of both the left and theright, to infect it with particular brand of Statism that is little more than a hybrid of Fascism and Socialism.

So, what happened to the Constitutional Republic, why, as Statists claim,didn't the Constitution remain viable and continue to work if it were such a sublimedocument as touted by those, like myself, as the ultimate political form for theadvancement of society and the individuals who make it up?

What Statists fail, utterly fail to realize or admit, is that this country and itsgovernment has fallen to the Statists. Nationalization and Centralization began inearnest during the reign of Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln and his cadre of RadicalRepublicans, Hamiltonians and Nationalist set the stage for the growth andexpansion of the State. After Lincoln, the Reconstruction Act of 1867 began theconsolidation of the corrupt State ideology.

With the election of James Garfield, the Statists believed that they hadfinally buried the Ideals of Jefferson. The Sentinel said it best: ""Garfield's rulewill be the transitory period between State Sovereignty and National Sovereignty.The United States Senate will give way to a National Senate. State Constitutionsand the United States Senate are relics of State Sovereignty and implements of treason. Garfield's Presidency will be the Regency of Stalwartism; after that-REX."

REX was a particularly interesting word to use; it described the ideal of creating the State Oligarchy, a Nationalist Central Government as the dominatingpolitical and social power within this country through the elimination of theConstitutional Republic. Indeed, the State has succeeded to a large degree increating its all-encompassing political machine.
