This web site
is dedicated
to informing the people about their secured rights and heritage as it
pertains to state
Citizenship.
The information you'll find here was
painstakingly
and meticulously
researched by state
Citizen, Richard James, McDonald.
Mr. McDonald is a researcher and
educator of law for
over 30 years, and
this web site,
and the information posted here, are the results of his dedicated
research of
the history of citizenship and the legal implications associated with
our "political status".
The visitor is encouraged to visit the File Room
where over 40
megabytes of documents on any array of topics are available for
downloading. Additionally, if one is interested in this
material
but has a slow internet connection, the files are available on CD for a
modest cost.
Who
Is Sir Richard James, McDonald?


Richard James, McDonald is a
state
Citizen of California.
Mr. McDonald is a former law enforcement officer who stumbled across
this information quite by accident but felt compelled to investigate
the issues related to law enforcement and status. Based on
results of Mr. McDonald's research, he took the extraordinary
step of renouncing his "US citizenship", (the reasons why should
become clear to the reader as they review the information posted here),
by reclaiming his "birth rights" and original political status, which
by the way, is
exactly the same as the Founding Fathers who were
state
Citizens, not "US
citizens".
Unbeknownst to most people, the class
termed "US
citizen" did not exist as a political status until 1866. It
was
a
class and "political status" created for the newly freed slaves and did
not apply to the people inhabiting the
states of the union who were at that time
state
Citizens.
"On the other hand, there
is a
significant historical fact in all of
this. Clearly, one of the purposes of the 13th and 14th
Amendments and
of the 1866 act and of section 1982 was to give the Negro citizenship.
. ."
Jones v. Alfred H. Mayer Co.
(1967),
379 F.2d 33, 43.
"The object of the 14th Amendment, as is well known, was to confer upon
the colored race the right of citizenship."
United States v. Wong Kim Ark,
169 U.
S. 649, 692.
Mr. McDonald is not a racist or bigot
but merely
wishes that the
reader understands that the class of people identified as "US citizens"
were the NEWLY FREED SLAVES ONLY as was the intent of the drafters of
the so-called 14th Amendment. After their being
recognized
as
people rather than "animate property", they needed to be brought within
the "naturalization process" and afforded some rights. As
anyone
well knows, property has no rights. Mr. McDonald has been
educating people about these issues for over 25 years.
“We have in our political
system
a
government of the United States and
a government of each of the several States. Each one of these
governments
is distinct from the others, and each has citizens of it’s
own...”
United States v. Cruikshank,
92 U.S.
542 (1875)
“...he was not a citizen of the United States, he was a citizen
and
voter of the State,...” “One may be a citizen of a
State an yet
not
a citizen of the United States”.
McDonel v. The State,
90 Ind. 320
(1883)
“That there is a citizenship of the United States and citizenship
of
a state,...”
Tashiro v. Jordan,
201 Cal. 236 (1927)
"A citizen of the United States is a citizen of the federal government
..."
Kitchens
v. Steele,
112 F.Supp 383
The
Importance Of state Citizenship
Why is this
important? Because the
visitor should know that
the
rules that apply to "US citizens" may be different that the rules that
apply to "state Citizens", and that the rights of one are not the same
as the other. For example, the "state
Citizen" is NOT required to have a driver license to legally use their
car to go to the store to buy food or to attend their place of worship,
the "US citizen" is required to have a license to do the same
thing.
“The governments of the
United
States
and of each state of the several
states are distinct from one another. The rights of a citizen
under one
may be quite different from those which he has under the other”.
Colgate v. Harvey,
296 U.S. 404; 56
S.Ct. 252 (1935)
“There is a difference between privileges and immunities
belonging to
the citizens of the United States as such, and those belonging to the
citizens
of each state as such”.
Ruhstrat v. People,
57 N.E. 41 (1900)
“The rights and privileges, and immunities which the fourteenth
constitutional
amendment and Rev. St. section 1979 [U.S. Comp. St. 1901, p. 1262], for
its enforcement, were designated to protect, are such as belonging to
citizens
of the United States as such, and not as citizens of a state”.
Wadleigh v. Newhall
136 F. 941 (1905)
Mr. McDonald educates people about the
reasons why
this is the so and
what
they can do to reclaim their birth rights which are protected by the
State Constitution.
“...rights of national
citizenship as
distinct from the fundamental
or natural rights inherent in state citizenship”.
Madden v. Kentucky,
309 U.S. 83: 84
L.Ed. 590 (1940)

which a freemen

Bouvier's Law Dictionary, 1856

What the visitor will find here is
little known
legal history about the
people of
this country that is not taught in the public schools nor for that
matter in law school as part of the general
curriculum.
MISSION
STATEMENT
Mr. McDonald is dedicated to educating
the visitor
about their secured
rights and how to defend them effectively by focusing on the common
"traffic ticket". No one likes being
pulled over and
being issued a NOTICE TO APPEAR for some alleged violation of the
Vehicle Code. The knowledge one has regarding "how
to" deal
with
the common "traffic ticket" will provide the accused with all
the
basic legal knowledge to deal with virtually any legal matter, this
is because elements of law are generally the same no matter
what
the
allegation.
Sublata causa
tollitur effectus.
Remove the cause and the effect will cease. 2 Bl. Com. 203.
Sublato
fundamento cadit opus.
Remove the foundation, the structure or work fall.
