This is a great video for all Americans to know. It underlines why the health bill is unconstitutional and why much of the legislation is as well. Every American needs to know what these congressional powers are - if we do not, then we will never have a country of we, the people! Please pass this along to family, friends, etc..

See the problem that so many
See the problem that so many people have is that they don't read the ENTIRE constitution. The are 26 AMENDMENTS. The Congress has more than these 18 powers, and one of these power negates many of the aforementioned powers, and it also negates the Bill of Rights for many individuals. One of the Amendments created a NEW kind of citizenship with a NEW kind of rights.
14th Amendment: "1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States..."
This created a NEW citizenship.
"...No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States..."
This created a NEW set of privileges (so called rights). And what are these NEW rights? Well, they are:
"5. The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article."
what ever CONGRESS says they are, and always subject to NEVER ENDING CHANGE.
When a Government official takes an oath to uphold the Constitution, that Oath INCLUDES upholding ALL of it Amendments, not just the original Constituiton and its first 10 Amendments.

A Priceless Idea
Be it a town hall meeting....walking into their offices..calling them on the phone..confronting them anywhere and everywhere we can....Lets ask our Congres(wo)men to name the 18 powers they are limited to.
I wonder...how many can do it without Google?...
In case your lucky enough to get them face to face...and they start to stumble and cant answer..ask them in they can read..stating you have to ask because you know their not reading the bills and hand them a copy of the Constitution...tell them...Go ahead find your limits and read them out loud
Freedom is another way to God...A corrupt government is a straight way to hell.
I believe in Hope & Change..I Hope the government will Change
