    Oh my goodness! First, the Constitution is not a framework to govern the country! There is no popular sovereignty established by the Constitution of the United States. The people are counted to apportion representation and suffrage to the States to participate in the legislative processes of Congress which are governed by legislative processes to reach a majority consensus of the States as the Union. Sorry, that’s where I stopped the video! Because of you can’t get that right, you don’t understand the Constitution of the United States. The assembly of the States had sovereignty in the United States, and the proportional and equal suffrage each State is entitled is the residual sovereignty each State retained when it ceded power to form the Union. Which means for those of you in the cheap seats, the States ceded power to form the Union that they have an equal right to participate in to reach a majority Consensus of all the States in the Union to make the collective decisions of the States as the Union! The people do no have any sovereignty, representation, or suffrage in the federal government, they are counted and representation and suffrage is apportioned to their States based upon that number. The Union was formed of the States, by the States, for the States, not the people!

    Nothing happens in a Presidential primary election, because the votes of the electors of each State to identify and vet candidates to make a list of the most qualified and most suitable candidates, is the primary, the election doesn’t take place until all the certified lists of the electors choices are opened in congress and the top candidates are identified when all the lists are combined, which forms the ballot of candidates the States must consider to determine their choice by vote, 1 vote per State, and a majority of All the States is necessary to the choice.

    You need to learn what a republic is before you ever make another video. There is no such thing as a representative democracy, either all are assembled, which is a democracy, or all are assembled through a representation, which forms a Republican Form of Government. A representative is someone you hire to advocate for your interests, a representation is a smaller version of the original, and in the case of a representation of ALL THE PEOPLE, when you get done it must be an exact representation of ALL THE PEOPLE, “The People in their Collective Capacity”, assembled as the Most Numerous Legislative Branch! If it’s not an exact representation of ALL THE PEOPLE, then you must change the representative density until you do produce an exact representation of ALL THE PEOPLE!

    I don’t even know where to begin with all the misconceptions contained in this video. The first, and most important, is that the States did not Declare their independence together, each was declaring their own independence to make the decisions of a free and independent State, but yes, they were confederates, States joined in a common cause against a common enemy. This was the problem! Each State had their own legislative assembly to make their own decisions as an free and independent State, but there was no agreement how the States would make collective decisions as a union, and which States would have more power to make the decisions, the richest States, the more populous States; how would they weight the decision making powers of the new Union? They decided on a democracy, all the States would be assembled as equals with equal suffrage to reach a majority consensus of ALL THE STATES AS THE UNION, and the Union assembled in Congress would be the sovereign! This required a legislative process to govern their collective decision making, and that legislative process is “consensus choice”, which is a two phase process where a quorum must identify and rank choices that must be considered by all the States to determine the choice by vote, 1 vote per State, and a majority of All the States is necessary to the Choice. The problem with a democracy is the largest and most wealthy States are a minority, which gives them no control over the scope and cost related to government spending. Which those largest States didn’t appreciate, they thought that if they were required to pay the most, then they should have more power in making those decisions which they were required to pay for. So disparity in a democracy is not a good thing, but what about a simple republic? In a simple republic the reverse is true, the small less populous States are now the minority, and the small States have little or no power to participate in making collective decisions. So again disparity in a republic is not a good thing! This is the question that led to the drafting of the Constitution of the United States. How to address the disparity in population and wealth that exists between the States. This problem was solved by assembling the States as a Confederated (compound) Republic in a bicameral legislature, where the large States have control over the scope and cost of all matters under consideration, and the small States have control over concurrence on those choices and decisions. Today the 9 largest States can form a majority by their proportional suffrage in the House, however, when those matters are transmitted to the Senate for concurrence, there are 41 States to reject those choices returning them to the House for reconsideration along with amendments to advise the 9 largest States what would be required for the concurrence of the 41 smaller States on those matters. This iterative process continues until the concurrence of both houses of congress is reached. Democracy, democratic and republican forms of government, are all based upon consensus choice to make collective decisions, because all must participate to identify and rank choices, and a majority consensus of All that are assembled is required to determine the choice. This is why I’m shocked at how we operate congress today, even something as simple as a quorum to operate, is not based on the States present, as it is required, and with the consolidation by proxy of the States representation and suffrage in Congress, the States don’t even have representation on a committee, the parties are represented on the committee, but it’s each State’s right to have one of their own representatives on every committee, and they have to be equals, meaning there is no control by majority party. These most fundamental principles have been lost, and it also distorts our interpretation of the history of our government, especially where it concerns the Articles of Confederation and the Constitution of the United States.
