A project of America's Independent Party and CAN-DO-USA

To become effective January 1, 2009

By the undersigned Citizens of the United States of America:

A Proclamation and Pledge of Non-Cooperation with, and Perpetual Resistance to, the enablers and practitioners of abortion and euthanasia

Whereas, more than three thousand innocent pre-born American children continue to be unlawfully and unconstitutionally killed every day, by cruel and unusual means, and the evil practice of euthanasia against the elderly and the infirm grows daily, the undersigned citizens of these United States do hereby, in accordance with America’s founding principles, declare that:

“All human beings, without exception, unborn and born, from the very first moment of fertilization, the beginning of biological development, until natural death, existing within any State or Territory of the United States, in accordance with natural rights that preceded, and are preeminent to, the formation and existence of our government, are fully Persons, with the self-evident and attendant God-given, unalienable Right to Life that is possessed by all citizens of the United States; and shall henceforth, and forever, be protected in their Lives and in their Persons under the self-evident principles contained in the Organic Law of the United States: the provisions of the Declaration of Independence, the Northwest Ordinance, which binds all state governments to enforce the unalienable rights guaranteed in the Declaration of Independence, the Preamble to the United States Constitution, the specific provisions of the Fifth, the Eighth, the Ninth, and the Fourteenth Amendments to that document, and in the clear provisions of the constitutions of all fifty States in the Union.

“Commencing on the first day of January, in the year of our Lord two thousand and nine, we hereby call upon the Executive Branch of the United States Government, including the law enforcement and military authority thereof, upon the Congress of the United States, and upon all members of the Judiciary of the United States; as well as the executive, legislative, judicial, and law enforcement authorities of all member States and Territories of the United States; to give due regard to the imperative duty created by their sworn oaths made before God, and to therefore recognize and actively protect the unalienable Right to Life of all such Persons, and to do no act or acts to repress such Persons, or to allow or effectuate the taking of any human life; the only exceptions being in the conduct of lawful and just war, justifiable homicide, or after trial and conviction by a jury on a capital offense as explicitly provided for in laws ratified by the elected representatives of the People or by the People themselves.

“The undersigned citizens hereby call upon the President of the United States, and the chief executives of the several States and local jurisdictions, to give due regard to the imperative duty created by their sworn oaths made before God, and so to, by proclamation or executive order, declare the Humanity of the aforesaid Persons, from fertilization until natural death; and to henceforth use the power and authority of their offices in the perpetual task of protecting the God-given, unalienable Right to Life of said Persons, and to use all the power of their offices to enforce the constitutional guarantee of their right to the equal protection of the laws.

“The undersigned citizens hereby call upon the Congress of the United States, the Legislatures of all the States, and the legislative bodies of all local, municipal and county governments, to give due regard to the imperative duty created by their sworn oaths made before God, and so to, by legislation, declare the Humanity of the aforesaid Persons, from fertilization until natural death; and to henceforth use all legislative power to resist those who would alienate the God-given, unalienable Right to Life of said Persons, and the constitutional guarantee of their right to the equal protection of the laws.

“The undersigned citizens hereby call upon the Supreme Court of the United States, and all lesser Federal, State and local courts in the United States, to give due regard to the imperative duty created by their sworn oaths made before God, and so to immediately recognize the self-evident Humanity and the unalienable Right to Life of all aforesaid Persons, from the genesis of their physical being until natural death, and to henceforth use all judicial power to resist any who would attempt to alienate the God-given, unalienable Right to Life of said Persons, and the constitutional guarantee of their right to the equal protection of the laws.

“The undersigned citizens hereby call upon each and every elected or appointed official or officer of the United States, and of any of the States, to henceforth give no assistance of any kind to those who enable or effectuate abortion or euthanasia, and that they adhere faithfully to their sworn oath of office, made before God, to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States, whose central principle is the preservation and protection of innocent human life.

“We hereby solemnly pledge to our fellow citizens as a sacred obligation to withhold, from this day forward, any and all political or financial support from any candidate for public office, at any level of governance, who fails or refuses to adhere to the explicit provisions of this Proclamation. We also hereby pledge to withhold, from this day forward, support of any kind for the continued employment in government of any person or officer of the United States who fails in their sworn duty to protect innocent human life from its bodily genesis.

“The undersigned, by virtue of the power and duties vested in them as citizens, in time of rebellion against the natural law and nature’s God, as well as against the transcendent founding principle of our Republic, the unalienable Right to Life, as a fit and necessary measure for suppressing said rebellion, do, beginning on this first day of January, in the year of our Lord two thousand and nine, and in accordance with our purpose so to do publicly, proclaim our intent to peaceably, but boldly and resolutely, resist any individual, political body, or organization, that perpetuates or effectuates the practices of abortion or euthanasia. We do so in accord with the primary stated purpose of the United States Constitution: “To secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity.”

“The undersigned hereby pledge continuous active opposition to the enablers and practitioners of abortion and euthanasia, and to those who enable or effectuate human embryonic scientific research that destroys human life at any point after its biological inception.

“This Proclamation will remain in full force until such time as all of its provisions have been carried into law and practice throughout the jurisdiction and territory of the United States, and into perpetuity.

“Upon this compact, sincerely believed to be an act of justice, warranted by the United States Constitution, upon societal necessity, we invoke the considerate judgment of mankind, and the gracious favor of Almighty God.

“In witness whereof, the undersigned have hereunto set their hand, in their own names, for the sake of posterity.

“Done this first day of January, in the year of our Lord two thousand and nine, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty third.”
