In reference to Neanderthals Bolg on NAFTA Highway, First Step, you were right on track in saying first step.

Another meeting took place on 20 Aug. 07 in Canada behind closed doors on a back door deal that could threaten the individual sovereignty of the United States, Canada and Mexico.  The current leaders of the three North American Countries held a meeting to discuss further details of the planned Security and Prosperity Partnership for the three North American Countries.  These meetings with the leaders of the three countries started about two years ago in Mexico when President Bush, the Prime Minister of Canada and the then president of Mexico Fox, who by the way was a former executive of the Coke Cola company.  A second meeting of the leaders was held several months later in Texas, followed by the interjection of a U.S. Congressional Bill asking Congress to fund this activity with out any oversight or information to be given to Congress or the American People.   More than a dozen major corporations are supporting and funding this closed door proposal which will create one North American Country with one Supreme Leader and sub-leaders for each of all three countries.  From what information has been found, the borders of all three countries will be fully open with very few limited restrictions on passage from one country to another by the citizens of any of the three countries, the safety of economics’, health, manufacturing and agriculture infrastructure. 

     Written and reported in most of the Florida news media have been articles about the increased level of gaming in the State of Florida if a revenue agreement can be reached between the State of Florida and the Florida Seminole Tribe.  The Department of Interior has given Florida until 15 Sept. 07 to come to an agreement, if not The Department of Interior could give the Seminole Tribe the right to operate on a Class III gaming level with out sharing a Stipend form of Taxation.   It has been reported Governor Crist wants to come to an agreement and then receive the approval of the State Legislators, but it has also been reported that State Senator Marco Rubio, the State House Speaker has complete power on passage of Bills in the State House of Representatives and that he will use his opposition and kill the agreement.

     Mr. Rubio may have legislature power, but seems to lack common sense.  Mr. Rubio’s attempt to stop expanded gaming will be a mute action, for the Seminole Tribe under Federal Law is considered a Sovereign Nation and The Department of Interior can over ride him giving the Seminole Tribe the right of Class II gaming with out giving the State of Florida a stipend tax revenue, thus his actions will create a loss of needed revenue for the citizens of Florida he is suppose to represent. 

     MyFoxTampaBay posted on their web site an article about how millions of Florida votes will not count in the Democratic primary, how true this is.  But why didn’t MyFoxTampaBay all so write an article on how millions more Florida Votes will not count in the presidential vote of 2008? 

      Our year 2000, 2004 election is behind us and the 2008 election will soon be here and the problems that arose from past elections are starting to fade in the minds of many.  This should not be, fore these problems have appeared six times in the past and will appear again in future elections.  The problems were brought about with the section of our Constitution relating to the electoral collage causing our election of a president to be decided from the selection of a few and not the will of many.  (Article II – The creation of the Electoral Collage)  And because of Article II of our Constitution we the legal citizens of the United States can not vote for the president of the United States, only our local, state and federal congressional representatives.  There are many faults in the methods used to vote, but we should vote anyway and try and be heard on how we feel.

     As examples of this we only have to go back to the election of 1872 Ulysses Grant v Horace Greeley, Greeley died one month after the election, the electoral vote was then spread out among the other candidates with 17 ELECTORS NOT VOTING and GRANT WINNING THE ELECTION.     Note:  The representatives of the electoral collage do not have to vote for the person they were sent there for or do they have to vote at all, therefore the vote of many is a wasted vote and the vote of a few is the only vote that counts.  Changing Article II of the Constitution with an amendment before the 2008 election is possible but not likely, given the actions of the State of Maryland giving all their electoral votes to the winner of the popular vote is one way of bypassing an amendment and Florida could due the same bringing Florida into the 21st Century.
