Why won't you pledge to abolish corporate personhood? Click more to read why this is vital. The U.S. Constitution, which defines our nation of popular sovereignty, boldly begins with three simple words, written large, "We the People." These three famous words convey responsibility equally to all people to make our own laws. But "We the People" have never included all the people. Those in power always try to maintain power. Initially, only land-owning white men voted. It took a century, the Civil War and three constitutional amendments to abolish slavery and let black men vote. The 19th Amendment ratified in 1920 let women vote. In the 1960s, amendments eliminated poll taxes to protect poor, mostly black voters, and allowed Washington DC voters to participate in presidential elections. In 1971, the 26th Amendment established a consistent national minimum voting age. But as soon as freed male slaves were allowed to vote, the wealthiest white men created a better way to maintain control. Starting in the 1880s, ironically using the 14th Amendment, one of the Reconstruction Amendments that abolished the legal fiction that a person was property, corporate attorneys convinced a few judges (who were previously corporate attorneys) to create corporate personhood, the legal fiction that property is a person. This gave corporations, which are non-human, artificial legal entities for owning property, some of the rights intended for freed slaves. Toiling another century, more attorneys convinced more judges to expand corporate rights to add protections from the First, Fourth and Fifth Amendments. (Legislators who were elected through the largesse of corporations shoulder the blame for allowing these decisions to stand.) Today, corporate personhood is fully mature, giving corporations all the rights necessary to combine with their wealth to control our governance. Using modern media and marketing science, voters are persuaded which candidates to elect. With gifts, campaign contributions and no spending limits on lobbyists, lawmakers are influenced. "We the People" are not in control; instead, non-humans dominate the process of making laws that control humans! Corporations are directed by more than humans. Although corporations were initially created centuries ago by lawmakers for the purpose of serving the public good, they now must obey legal obligations to strive for profit, not public good. Corporations are not human, they simply don't share our morality or mortality and they have no business participating in the process of making laws that govern people. Democracy embodies the ideal of one person, one vote, but corporations have hijacked democracy by diminishing the power of all our votes below the influence of their wealth. To gain control, humans must ban corporations from politics using a constitutional amendment that abolishes corporate personhood. Corporations serve a vital function in our society; they allow capital to be combined to accomplish amazing things. They drive our glorious way of life and prosperity. We must provide corporations with the rights and tools they need to thrive while serving the public good; we can do that without letting them participate in our law making process. But they'll use their persuasive powers to disagree. They'll vilify candidates who promise to limit corporate influence. We must be strong and ignore their deluge of ads and pundits, and only vote for candidates who put "We the People" above "We the Corporations." If you believe in America's ideals for democracy, that all people are created equal and have an inalienable right to govern themselves, then you have a civic obligation to understand how corporate personhood nullifies democracy.

Visit http://votep2.us/ to vote for The National Initiative For Democracy. Script of video: I'm Mike Pryslak from Miami (Florida) and the candidate who promises to rein in corporations and ban their money from politics gets my vote. Our democracy is dying because corporations and their wealthiest owners control our country. With no spending limits on lobbyists who direct lawmakers and media that sways voters, individuals, and often the truth, are silenced. Why won't you pledge to abolish corporate personhood, so we can relegate corporations to serving the public good as they were originally intended instead of letting them control us? Thank you.

"Personhood" in Colorado This fall, Colorado and Georgia could vote on a law change that would legally define "personhood" as beginning at the moment of fertilization. Depending upon who you talk to, the change could mean nothing... or lead to overturning Roe v. Wade. You'll see what we mean when you hear from those organizing for and against the ballot initiative. The UpTake's Corrine McDermid looks at what this law change could mean to her personally and to other women. Other notes: Other States have had similar measures on the ballot recently, many authored by the Thomas Moore Law Center (Colorado's initiative wasn't written by the Law Center, but the language was approved by them).

Personhood One Step Closer In Colorado http://www.Personhood2008.com Personhood is about giving rights to every American from fertilization. You'll notice that Fox31News tossed their two female reporters in efforts to give their bleeding heart liberal views any validity. At the very beginning of the report they give you the location of the opponents webstie but don't show you how to support life. Also, they call this as an abortion measure which this Ammendment doesn't address. Tammy Vigil and Deborah Takahara are third tier "reporters" who are well known for their Anti-American liberal bias. If you listen to what they have to say you'll hear that Tammy never refers to the baby as anything but a fertilized egg and "what they see as a person"! Tammy also illustrates her priorities over life towards the end with her focus on inheritance and benefits rather than on life. Deborah has voiced her Anti-American bent serveral times in her show of support for the foreign invaders (illegal immigrants) and her disregard for Constitutional Rights. http://www.TyePorter.com/blog Tags: Personhood 2008 Right To Life Colorado Tye Porter |

Coloradans put 'personhood' on the Ballot initiative 2008 More than 131,000 (103,000 voters)Coloradans have endorsed a plan to put an initiative on the fall 2008 election ballot that would allow voters to extend the U.S. Constitution's protections to those who haven't been born yet, something supporters say the U.S. founders intended all along. In a campaign that opponents fret is a direct challenge to the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision in which the Supreme Court discovered the right of a mother-to-be to abort her unborn child, the Colorado personhood amendment is a simple proposal. "This proposed constitutional amendment will define a person in Colorado as a human being from the moment of fertilization, the moment when life begins," according to a statement at the sponsoring group, Colorado for Equal Rights.

Debate Question on Corporate Personhood Hi - my name is Denis, from San Francisco - this question is for any of the candidates - It seems that corporations have more influence on who gets elected in America than do "We, the People". Haliburton, for example, which benefits hugely from a war most Americans want to end now, is moving operations out of America and into an Islamic country. Isn't it time we re-think the whole concept of corporate personhood, just to insure that American elections are not railroaded by corporations against the interests (and security) of "We, the People?
