[color="Red"]The following is the most important and interesting part of Dr. Edwin Vieira (Ph.D., J.D.), Jr's., December 7, 2006, article on this grave issue.

Excerpt:The insurmountable practical problem for any "merger" of the United States, Canada, and Mexico into a North American Union by means of a putative "amendment" of the Constitution is that neither Canada nor Mexico satisfies the standards of the Declaration of Independence, by a long shot. And therefore no North American Union that simply incorporated those two countries, fundamentally unchanged, could meet the Declaration's standards, either.

(h) Therefore, the only way to create a North American Union that could absorb Canada and Mexico without radically reforming their regimes would be to repeal the Declaration of Independence, repudiate the principles on which it stands, and replace them with some new set of contradictory principles consistent with the way political business is carried on in Canada and Mexico. This could not be accomplished simply by an "amendment" of the Constitution, because the power of amendment in Article V is to "propose Amendments to this Constitution," not amendments to or replacements for the Declaration of Independence. Instead, it would be necessary to adopt a new Northern-Hemisperic "Declaration of Interdependence" that reduced the United States morally, as well as politically, to the level of Canada and Mexico.

Little imagination is necessary to posit what the noxious principles of such a "Declaration of Interdependence" would have to be:

"[T]he Laws of Nature and of Nature's God" would be replaced with purely "positive law"—that is, "law" would become whatever the political Establishment said it was, with no right of appeal to any "higher law."
"[C]ertain unalienable rights" would be replaced with entirely "alienable rights"—that is, with no real "rights" at all, because such "rights" as the Establishment permitted under its "laws" could be set aside whenever it served the Establishment's purposes.
The idea that "Governments * * * deriv[e] their just powers from the consent of the governed" would be replaced by the claim that governments determine their own powers, which common people must accept as being "just."
"[T]he Right of the People to alter and abolish [any Form of Government], and to institute new Government," would be replaced with an unconditional duty to obey "the authorities" in everything, no matter how tyrannous they became. And,
The People's "right" and "duty" "to throw off [an abusive] Government" would be abolished through pervasive "gun control" and other police-state measures, leaving common Americans (and Canadians and Mexicans, too) at the mercy of "the authorities," who could Waco-ize them without fear of resistance.
Can the Establishment convince Americans to repudiate the principles of the Declaration of Independence, and to substitute for them the grotesque counter-principles of a Northern-Hemispheric totalitarian state? Probably not, if the matter were openly and honestly presented in that way. Which means that the matter will be presented in some other way. Most likely, the Establishment's minions will simply skirt the question entirely, claiming that some combination of "statutes," "treaties," "executive orders," and "executive agreements" will suffice to create the North American Union.

In sum, NO constitutional grounds for a North American Union exist. Indeed, the whole project is patently illegal. That fact, however, will prove to be of merely theoretical significance unless WE THE PEOPLE oppose the creation of a North American Union with every form of exposure, denunciation, protest, obstruction, and resistance that the Constitution permits. And as soon as possible. For all the evidence indicates that the Establishment considers the North American Union a top priority, its foundations at the least to be poured into place with the next few years.

[color="Red"]To prevail in the coming struggle to preserve America, however, patriots must first overcome the centrifugal tendencies that have all too often rendered them ineffective on other fronts by enabling the Establishment successfully to concentrate its forces and to employ divide-and-conquer tactics. Revitalizing "the Militia of the several States" could provide the necessary focal point for the political zeal, skills, and experiences of many patriotic groups now engaged in isolated, mutually unsupportive activities. Perhaps other projects could also serve the same unifying, directing, and (most importantly) empowering purpose. In any event, the time for patriots to stop working in isolation, and instead to engage in coordinated, concerted action is as close at hand as it is short. If America is not saved soon, there will soon be nothing left of her to save.
