Description
"As the people are the only legitimate fountain of power, and it is from them that the constitutional charter, under which the several branches of government hold their power, is derived, it seems strictly consonant to the republican theory, to recur to the same original authority... mere declarations in the written constitution are not sufficient to restrain the several departments within their legal rights" James Madison (1788). Madison argued the need for the Republic to use Constitutional Conventions when our Federal Government steps beyond its enumerated boundaries. However, We the People: Whose Constitution is it Anyway; asserts there is no need to send delegates and assemble in a central location for what could become a target of opportunity for enemies to undermine or attack the Republic. Brilliantly, this book pushes the conventional roles of a Republic into twenty-first century technology to return control back to the States and the people. This is the irrefutable argument to convene a Constitutional Convention for Republic Review. Using framers testimonies and founding documents the only logical course to preserving the Constitution is through this type of Convention.
